Thank you. And screw C.S. Lewis and his banishment of Susan for her love of lipstick and stockings. A woman can be a badass AND like lipstick, I have references upon request

No. That’s the same excuse people use to explain away revenge porn. No one deserves to be blackmailed.

My wife called me an asslesscay untcay for speaking in pig latin.

I am a daily reader who has never commented before until now.

She had the money for the apartment, but when he found out about it he was still going to kill her. The money wasn’t going to keep her safe. He would find out where it was, or win visitation and show up there. All I was thinking when she was in the apartment was that it wasn’t far enough away, he was going to find…

I’m pretty happy about a show that starts out saying women are just big bitches to each other and then it ends like women are a village and they’re the only ones they can really trust. Like holy shit mind blown I love all you ladies out there I’d kill your abusive husband and help raise your kids.

The Long Walk is still one of the best things he’s ever written.

Also, it never escapes my notice that any time someone asks for Stephen King recommendations, the replies invariably will include MOST of his books, which I think only speaks to his strength as a writer. Most of his output is good enough for someone to consider any one of them their favorite.

Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.

I saw it written on campus the other day. Gave me the chills.

I mean, was the trailer scary to you? It’s not blood and gore, but it’s dystopian in a hyper patriarchal way.

It’s the only book that’s ever given me nightmares. It’s scary because it could actually happen.

Totally unrelated because I’m tired after not getting any sleep last night (my anti-anxiety medication ran out, and I think that it’s increasing my sensory overload) and feel compelled to share happy things, my colleague is getting a puppy next week. He’s going to take time off to bond with the puppy and has taken to…

I had a crush on Dan Conner in middle school and high school but I never told any of my friends because I thought they would make fun of me. Screw those snobby little bitches...I have fantastic taste.

nah. my feet are standing in soap water. they’re fine. it’s all fine.

Adjacent question for people who don’t wash their legs: do you wash your feet?

"Sorcia, I'm in love with your best friend [a dude with a hilariously ridiculous name that I cannot post here]. We're moving to Virginia and I hope you'll be happy for us."
