@btaylor Remember in Idiocracy when the confused MC approaches locals and says, “Pardon me,” and they call him snooty and run him off?

We’re getting there.

@BiraboneyeVicky That is wild! Would love to see that in person.

All I want are puppies and kittens and breezy spring days.

But I’m allergic to all of those.

However, I’m not allergic to mold. I can cuddle mold.

@EmmaHoyes1 I just accidentally replied to this with a reference to puppies. (I meant to post something on my feed) But then, maybe it was an idea for a meet-cute opportunity. 🤦🏻‍♀️😁

Sometimes your child is sullenly silent all day. Sometimes they stomp around saying “Fish fish fish fish BURger.”

@GarrisonMoratto @nytimes I would normally agree. But the VAR was done in slow-mo instead of real-time, which was breaking their own rules when determining intent. It’s fair game for a review of their decision.

@mleyshonauth Perhaps it knows you like we do, sir.

The ‘dog days’ of summer get their name due to their association with the Dog Star, Sirius, found in the constellation Canis Major.

The first visible rising of Sirius occurs during the hot stretch from early July to early September.

Woof.

Still dreaming of the day my kid is coordinated enough to trim the back of my hair. Mama ain’t got that salon money.

@TommySligo If there was fog with this, y’all would be screwed.

@Wildfyrewarning @lizaadamczewski I must adopt this mentality! :)

[Anne M. Belen @annembelen]

@Wildfyrewarning @lizaadamczewski That is so pretty. I’d be terrified of getting too close to it. 😆

Waiting for a help desk so I can continue the self-publishing checklist.

Husband just said: “Well, to be fair, and this is probably unfair…”

It’s small progress.

[Anne M. Belen @annembelen]

@kelly_ques Definitely the chicken chariot.

@EmmaHoyes1 As someone who has restructured a novel opening no less than seven times, I feel this.

Sometimes just throwing down the most useless, basic line kickstarts the instinct to build and improve.

[Anne M. Belen @annembelen]

Resurrecting this bad boy after a looooong social media break.

Let’s see if it was a mistake.
