Oh hey, I wrote this! A heart-wrenching, lovely gem. Check out the book & @SpectrumCulture for more reviews!

@DamianJ54874907 @anishmoonka Ew, this is a gross comment.

[Ashley Pabilonia @ampabilonia]

This audiobook I'm listening to almost makes me want to cry bc why did the Chinese protag's also Chinese childhood friend have to be the villain, & why did protag's gay awakening have to be a white savior lesbian? I'm j/... so mad, even though it was obvious from the start.

Ew, I forgot to cancel my trial LinkedIn premium subscription before I got charged. Most unnecessary purchase ever...

[Ashley Pabilonia @ampabilonia]

Any tips on keeping up with contacts who could possibly be job references as you move forward in your career? I'm trying to hunt some down, & I'm realizing this is yet another example of networking that I'm weak at & need to improve. Thanks!

How to spend time when you're alone

[Ashley Pabilonia @ampabilonia]

I hadn't touched my LinkedIn until recently, & I barely recognize anyone I'm linked to in it. Does it make sense to purge the list & friend folks I do know?

Barring my social anxiety over friending people in the first place.

I wish I could look @ prompts & actually write anymore. #Inktober

[Ashley Pabilonia @ampabilonia]

@ellorysmith See, I'm socially anxious & don't like interaction, so I will small talk as long as possible about the weather, work, hobbies, etc. I don't want to know the inner workings of most people & don't like deep convo bc it involves more investment than I can/am willing to make.

@Abbyland I briefly considered this call for subs bc I've never been pubbed by a non-school lit mag, but I want my work to be deemed worthy somehow, not pubbed automatically in what basically amounts to pity in the guise of, "There's value in the slush pile," or something. Idk.

Similar situation @ West Shore AMC. Huge crowd of teens. Fight broke out. I thought it was a shooting. Crowd moved down the hall, security came up, pulled 2 kids away. Theater shut down, everyone told to leave. Heavy police presence. #NationalCinemaDay2022 #NationalCinemaDay

As of 8 p.m., CCSO said both the AMC Theater and the Orange Park Mall were closed.

@Dolen I don't write much anymore, but I almost always had to draft in pen & paper 1st. Editing came when I typed it all on the screen. I can't pinpoint why, but there's def a difference between composing in 1 or the other medium, & writing by hand feels less demanding of perfection.

@clhubes More long hemmed tops like this please? I cannot & will never pull off a cutoff or even a shirt @ pants waist length. I look incredibly boxy & they make my torso look weirdly short. I'm all for dresses that are tops too. I feel too bare w/out a legged bottom. 😅😅😅

[Ashley Pabilonia @ampabilonia]

@joanna_pagan95 Gotcha. Moved a few months back when prices were up already. In a 1bed/1bath for $1400s in St.Pete, & that was on the lower end of my searches. Luckily, I work from home, am walking/biking from places, & share expenses w/ my father when he visits, but I know that's not the norm.

Many people have asked how they can help in the aftermath of the white supremacist anti-Black terrorist attack today in Buffalo. Please check out this 🧵for organizations and people to donate to. Will add more as I learn about more.👇🏿

I followed and talked to nearly a dozen pro-Marcos vloggers during the campaign. Struck by so many things including how much they earn via platforms - 10x-30x Manila’s minimum wage.

I know your comparatively goody-goody younger sis would make a far less plotty book, but ugh, I'd much rather have read something about her.

[Ashley Pabilonia @ampabilonia]

I want to like this book bc I went to the author's panel, met her, & bought her new release on the spot bc I was so inspired by her. But I'm reading her debut, & everyone except like 1 character ticks me off somehow.

[Ashley Pabilonia @ampabilonia]

I'm invested enough to finish, but I don't love it & MC is prob my least fave character. You're going to hate your spurned friend's husband for an affair, but you're a-okay w/ the mistress who specifically hooked up w/ married dudes bc she was your work friend? They both suck.
