You and @jessnevins.bsky.social can verify but I was taught medieval baristas didn’t declare the chickens on their taxes and just stuffed birds in their jerkins, big scandal

I’m concerned that if money goes away and we all start making bad art, who will create all the bad spreadsheets? The subpar project update emails? For goodness sake, who will create all the mediocre meeting minutes?

I've just finished a novella -- a romp set in the Harrison Squared / We Are All Completely Fine universe -- and sent it to my beta readers, so for a few shining minutes I shall feel like Kate Winslet

PSA: If you're cautious about something, you're wary of it. Wary. Not weary, WARY. Weary means you're tired. Please stop fucking this up, people. I can only take so much. 😭

I just want to clarify -- I was in college, and yes we'd all been drinking, but all the goats were returned to the petting zoo. I mean, except Floyd, who lived in the back bedroom all semester and was totally cool

Speaking of records and movies, they can't imagine what it's like to do something intensely stupid and think, "Well, there's no public record, and no one will ever see this security footage."

In the never ending search for Music I can Write To, this week's choice is the band "standards" lowercase ee cummings style. The music is not ee cummings style, and you all know what that is. Instead, it's this:

That would be a great crime novel. The two munchkins sidled into my office. They were small men with big guns and bigger hair. I asked if the Kid had sent them. One of them smiled. He had a gold tooth as bright as a slab of road. “Oh, you don’t want to know who we represent.”
