Writer of words, knitter of yarn. Owned by two adorable cats. Slightly steamy, slightly sweet historical romance.
Fun Theda Bara fact: a house she once rented on West Adams is now used to house Jesuits.

I asked if he’d ever considered following his father into films. The rest of the meal was spent with him regaling us with stories of touring with his parents when he was small and silent Hollywood.

In the late 80s, I happened to be seated next to Leiber the younger at a lunch at an SF con. There were the usual question for half the meal from the rest of the table. Then he said I was quiet and did I have questions?

Aetna won't cover HPV vaccine? 🤬

I know there are people in the insurance industry who just love RFK Jr because he's giving them the excuse they need to not cover stuff. Which saves them money while raising premiums.

I laugh because I am a fan of B5, Trek, SW, and Who and found myself nodding and agreeing. There’s being a fan and being A FAN. The latter? With extremely rare exceptions, avoid at all cost.

(Never got into Supernatural in part because of the crazies.)

She apparently also said they should have Nick Fuentes on, so she’s clearly carrying water for him now.

But the idea this company is positioning their books as something to instagram with, showing it peeking out of purses, makes me feel it's more "book as accessory to make me look smart" than to actually read. Like it's trying to appeal to the performative reading folk.

Trust me, you aren't. When I saw them, my first reaction was that they looked like a classic lit book who didn't need a fancy cover because if you picked it up, you were probably already looking for that specific cover.

Not seamless. There's a tag sticking out on one side.

I knit a Fair Isle cozy for my iPod NaNo once when I saw the ones they were selling at the Apple store. Took me about an hour. That one was seamless.

Oh. That explains *so* much.

I’m battling my way back from anemia following cancer treatments, and I’ve been on a rollercoaster of late.
