Opinions, I have a few= And they're absolutely positively solely my own.
- Welp. This day required a reset via The Dude, as I also do not abide, mmkay? Anywho. Feeling restored, set to start my journey back to Minneapolis this weekend, and it’s a FRAUGHT proposition. Teaching an in-person teen class on writing for social justice. Perhaps the only good reason to do so 😔☮️💟

- Welp. Trying to stay Zen as I roll into a ridonculously busy week. Happened upon The Linguini Incident. The what now? Yeah. Not sure how DB created a work that I heard nada about prior to today! It's a screwbally, Absolute Beginners meets Desperately Seeking Susan + ...something. Art direction = 🤩
- Ooh. I’ll play! Madonna: Bad Girl youtu.be/OsHnROYjdgo
- This week continuing playing Madonna songs MADONNA True Blue youtu.be/P51LunEV3Sk?...
- I’m preparing for my thirty-day train travel extravaganza, y’all! This was a lil test run to see how best to roll. #HeauxBeauxDreams go live on 02.08.26
- Today has been the absolute Mondayest Sunday in the history of Sundays…good googly moogly 😒

- The sky tonight…
- Teehee 🤭 if I just *beamed* you over as a follow from the Dark Cloud Place: Welcome to my reincarnation of myself in that sad space in these here bluer skies! (Note: @aim2gtc.bsky.social is here as well, and we are still up to shenanigans!)

- Welp, Blewskis. Crawling into the Airstream and snuggling under 2 down comforters, Chez Buzz. Hope y'all had a beautiful day. I'm still incredibly sad over a friend's heartbreaking news. My heart hurts...a lot. A lot a lot 💔 ~Eine kleine Airstream music: The Smiths | How Soon Is Now? bit.ly/4qyBtlP
- Oh. Dear. I may never go home 😬
- I mean, I've never actually seen NOISES OFF, but somehow it feels super apropos rn, amirite? 🫠

- Okay. Who has $18,000USD (the USD is for you, Garry!) and is willing to buy this poster for me? Because, as MizGolightly, it's really more of a need than a want, isn't it? 🙃

- I'm playing "Choose However-Many-Books-I-Feel-Like-Y'all-Know-I-Don't-Color-Within-The-Lines that have stayed with you or influenced you." Just a book per day for 20 days, no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers. [#books] [#booksky] [#amreading] [#booklover] [💙📚] Day 142:

- Hey, y'all... *My* #SubmissionSunday means: Set aside however much time on Sundays—5, 15...120 mins—to submit your #shortstories, #flashfiction, #CNF, and #poetry to your favorite lit mags/zines. Okay? Great. Let's skip to the queue! Today, my first sub is to @doricliterary.bsky.social. And, you? 🤔
- Okay. Writer’s Bone is—once again—bringing it with their #podcasts. Saving this ep for my upcoming train ride!
- Real talk: I grew incredibly tired of trying to manage all of my open tabs. So. I had a few tablespoons of Chunky Monkey, and now I'm going to bed! Good night. Also: Miss you, @aim2gtc.bsky.social. I will check in on you and the goats tomorrow...we're [Minneapolitans] still reeling from yesterday.

- Doh! [See also: I KNEW there was a greater reason for me following KJ than I've been a JEOPARDY stan since I was a toddler eating Cheerios in a bowl placed on top of a lowered ironing board that my mother set up so she could multitask before *multitasking* was even remotely a thing, mmkay...yeah 😏]
- Reposted by MizGolightlyYou have it within your power to make another person’s day a bit brighter. That’s a superpower. And it’s what separates you from the assholes in charge. Never forget that.
- this is what i look like scrolling social media

- Hey, y'all... Are we up to speed now? *My* #SubmissionSunday means: Set aside however much time on Sundays—5, 15...120 mins—to submit your #shortstories, #flashfiction, #CNF, and #poetry to your favorite lit mags/zines. We've got this! Let's skip to the queue!!!
- The Gap in my resume was spring break during eighth grade after my sales as an Avon lady that spring were waaaaay poorer than anticipated
- Welp. What a day, what a day. And here we are, changed. But how? We won't know tomorrow or even next month the extent to which we are changed. But we have been. Irrevocably... What is shuffle play up to? Glad you asked: Tonight on the Shuffle Up: A.E.I.O.U. by Di Melo youtu.be/Zse87KUaAMo?...
- Update: The cat moved…legs, pinned.
- Welp. I’m gonna opt out of this ridonculous world for a bit. There’s a cat napping on my chest, purring. So, lofi I go with the kitty-chest-purring until I feel this sadness ease…peace on earth, and good will to all ☮️💟
