Really sad to learn of the passing of the author Benjamin Alire Sáenz. Aristotle and Dante meant a lot to me as a teenager, and I was lucky enough to see him speak twice in 2017. Such a kind and thoughtful man.

Walked past a parked car absolutely blasting Porch Light by Noah Kahan. Hope they're okay

Really kind of funny of me to go to a theatre where you pick your own seats and proceed to pick a seat with obstructed view

YAY, I did a library purchase request for @ngoziu.com's new book and I thought the selector decided not to buy it but it just showed up on my holds list!

The current Jeopardy champion literally looks like a @ngoziu.com character to me idk why but I cannot stop thinking it 😂

I think my local theatre should put on the flop Lestat musical, just for me. I have no idea how many tickets they'd sell but I bet it would be a killer production

Explain to me why any time I am asked to make book recommendations my brain sends back “Book what’s a book I have never read a book in my life”

The fact that the new Katherine Addison and Natasha Pulley books are both coming out within days of my birthday is so exciting

We do a "Staff Secret Valentine" book exchange at the library which is always fun and this is the stack my coworker picked out for me this year ❤️ A few I'd already read or had on my radar but a few I don't know about! Looking forward to digging in.

Coworker took a call from someone who had previously spoken to me and said "Was it a woman who helped me before, or a young lady?" My coworker was at such a loss she was just like "...well she's younger than me..."

Reasons I've checked books out from the library so far this year: - someone left them on a table - they were mentioned in another book I read - they were on the cart I was moving from new to regular collections - they literally jumped off the shelf at me

I let my laptop do an update and now my email and Word have copilot in obtrusive places that can't be turned off and I don't want to be dramatic but I'm currently feeling apocalyptic rage

Why am I seeing commercials for the NFL draft. First of all it's apparently in April and it is currently January. Secondly anyone who cares about football knows when the draft is and anyone who doesn't care about football will not be watching the draft. Leave me alone.

Going through another Spring Awakening phase and I want to see the straight play live SO BADLY

Specifically wore my vest with seals on it to work so I could take a picture with A Sweet Sting of Salt by @sutherrose.bsky.social for the staff favorite reads of 2024 social media post but the book is CHECKED OUT. Which of course is great but I'll have to take a pic later wearing Any Old Outfit 😞

Went back and forth on whether to do the thing where you import (most of) your tweets. Decided to go for it (I'm fond of many of my stupid little comments). Really funny glancing through, w/ no likes it REALLY looks like I was just posting into the void as opposed to having a reliable audience of 1

Not sure what I'll end up doing with this account but here's my recent illuminated manuscript style rendition of one of my top five favorite poems 💚
Handwritten text of The Weed by Elizabeth Bishop. Drops of water with images inside are illustrated between the two columns of the poem. At the bottom is a drawing of a plant growing out of an anatomical heart surrounded by water. On either side of the page there is a vertical line of gold with a vine curling up around it. The first letters of the title and the poem are also decorated with gold.Close up of the title with its illuminated initials. A few of the drops are also visible. It is difficult to see but one has an envelope inside and another has an outline of the country of Brazil.Close up of the gold outline and vine along one side of the page.

Squandered the chance to own Moritz's wings from Selfie Stick Spring Awakening today and I'm definitely not sitting here moping about it

The anti-Joyce Craig ads are so HATEFUL towards homeless people. Like it is so transparent that they don't see them as human beings. Well guess what, now I'm going to vote against Ayotte even harder than I was already going to!

Waiting in the lobby for a play and must have looked so awkward standing alone that the president of the theater came up to talk to me

Signed up for a seven day free trial and Was Not Thinking and automatically signed up for the cheapest plan even though it doesn't matter since I'm going to cancel before they charge me so now I have to put up with ads 😓 it's so stupid

Most people in the 911 fandom seem to either really love Tommy Kinard or REALLY HATE him and meanwhile I've just been over here like "oh hey a guy with almost the same name as me! Neat!"

Out of context it was extremely funny of my coworker to say to me today "you're like Cher to me"

We found a literal potato in the book return bin. WHERE is the library sitcom we all deserve?!

Maybe it's just because it's free stuff but there is something about our staff clothing swap that has such a dangerous siren call. I will see things that are not remotely my style and go "ooh, do I need that?"

Not Noah Kahan saying "if you need a bathroom break this is probably a good time" right before launching into one of his best songs

Not me going to a concert by an Australian band and then being surprised when they started talking with an Australian accent 🤦‍♀️

smh I'm wearing a vest with thirteen pockets today and I've been at work for almost three hours and no one has said "wow, Zoe, how many pockets are on that thing?" (13!)

I'm on my parents' AAA account and I really get a kick out of my membership card saying I'm a 38 year member when I'm 27 years old

No way. At the concert I went to on Monday he sang this beautiful cover and the audience was singing along and I felt deeply uncool for not knowing it and I just looked it up and it's a JUSTIN BIEBER song?!?

Sorry when did we decide it's acceptable to use flash photography at a concert

Pretty sure when most people say "find a job where you can get paid to do what you love" they don't mean "posting on social media about queer pirates" but that's where I'm at today and I'm pretty pleased with myself about it

A summary of my recent socialization: 1. Took a friend I hadn't seen in years to Spring Awakening 2. Met up with the same friend and talked briefly about Spring Awakening 3. Went to a party and ended up talking to a (different) friend about Spring Awakening

Today I thought I had taken either a lovely picture of a mourning dove or a picture for my bad instagram but it turned out I didn't manage to take any picture at all 😞

We have a patron at the library who doesn't really look like Hozier but does look just enough like him to make me regularly do a double take

I had moved past my Spring Awakening obsession. I looked back on that period of my life with some bemusement. And now I am back 😔

I have a moderately distinctive car but someone who regularly parks in or near the library parking lot has the same car (with very small differences) and it keeps messing with my head because I look out the window and go wtf that's not where I parked this morning

The theatre where I'm seeing Spring Awakening this week has posted promo images of just about every part of the show except the vineyard scene and I'm like WHERE are my BOYS

Every time I hear (the original version of) a Smashing Pumpkins song I am truly blown away by how awful the singer's voice is
