By their late 30s, all successful women belong to at least two group chats named “the coven.”

In a quest to make my life more analogue over the next four years (and hopefully longer), I got a fat stack of books from the public library, and let me tell you how sexy that feels

My friend texted me today that there’s no point in living unless you have a crush on someone or a package on the way and damn if that isn’t true

People love to blather on about how we have to abandon CA when something climate-related happens as if anywhere in the world is safe. Climate disasters now happen absolutely everywhere and there is no escaping it. So.

The millennial urge to leave early or not go at all.

People say millennials’ identity is formed by witnessing the fall out from 9/11, or graduating into a recession, or raising kids during Covid, but it’s actually formed by the 3 VHS tapes your grandparents owned your entire childhood.

Libraries feel like something about which we could very easily be saying, “Remember that place where you could borrow books, for FREE, and return them when you were finished?” And kids would say “What?? No way!” And yet there they still are, despite everything we’ve become, existing. Remarkable.

I’m new here so can you please point me to the Conclave (2024) memes?

I haven’t tweeted in so long I’ve completely forgotten how or why I’d want to. Which is probably for the best except I missed all my little online friends! Yes, you!
