Took my friend to her first book talk today and since it was @roxanegay.bsky.social it’s pretty much all downhill for her (friend, not Roxane) from here on out 🤷🏼♀️
The hold that balloon arches have on white women in Texas is unreal. I just saw pictures of one at a monthly book club meeting. Just whew.
It turns out calling the people who advocate for school vouchers welfare queens really gets under their skin 💁🏼♀️
