My library! They have an app that gives you access to their ebooks and audiobooks. Once you get to Seattle you should look at getting a library card, cus they likely have a similar service, and their catalogue is probably Huge

Absolutely criminal…. I didn’t realize until now there’s an error in August’s graphic. Birds nest was 5 stars, not 4. In fact it’s my second favorite Shirley Jackson novel so far (second only to hill house). Shirley Jackson please forgive me…….

I used to love Halloween as a kid and ever since my teen years every year has come with a gradual diminishing of that love, and this year it’s a miracle I decorated at all. And then I see Christmas commercials after I only just got around to decorating halfway through October

I’m afraid to know. But also who the fuck does that.

Best case scenario: she only gave 1 to my sister bc the subject of the tattoo shop came up and she happened to have a flyer in her bag
Nightmares case scenario: she was giving them out to anyone she sat with. At my dad’s funeral. After she spent 3 months avoiding talking to me if dad was brought up

She was handing out coupons for her tattoo shop at my dads memorial? She gave one to my sister? Am I in the fucking twilight zone?

Hilariously I think all my years of performing music and dance and theatre has given me a Performance Override on anxiety. The second I’m on a stage or have to perform suddenly my anxiety just switches off

Had my dads celebration of life yesterday and after 2 months of planning it’s so satisfying that it went off so well. It also reminded me I am the living contradiction of “socially anxious but really fucking good at public speaking”

Work upgraded all our pcs which means im forced to use new outlook and some of these changes ??? They took out the ability to double click to open attachments? Now all you have is their shitty preview window that takes up the whole screen? And you cant zoom in on the attachment? WHAT WAS THE REASON

New outlook was designed to torture me, specifically

Oh god I haven’t heard the one with Tim curry, I’m gonna have to dig it up. My favorite is the one Christopher Lee did. He does a full blown Texan cowboy accent for Quincy and it single-handedly rekindles my will to live

Any attempt to take this situation seriously is really undermined by the fact the governor of Utah had to go on tv and say “if you’re reading this, you’re gay”
