I found some beautiful Moira Rose gifs to accompany my “X is too soulless for me, peace out” tweet, but they still won’t post after 5 attempts & ~20 mins. Which is definitely on brand for this site, so at least there’s that.

Kids need books.

That’s it. That’s the Tweet.

I heard a rustling sound as I approached the front door and the part of me that’s still a Florida girl assumed it was a snake even though it was more likely one of the 87 stray cats in our neighborhood

What's this nonsense about students not needing books? My students each check out an average of 33 books per year. Almost one a week. Some children get a new book EVERY DAY. How else are they supposed to read? (They have steadfastly refused digital books.)

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

Ohno I thought Good Omens 2 was releasing week by week. It all dropped today and I can’t binge until this darn summer school class is done. I also can’t resist binging if I start

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

What is the logic of taking all the trash cans away, cleaning them, and then putting them back without the trash bags?

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

Confirmed termite sighting in one of the bookcases. This year is off to an inauspicious start.

New school year, new district policy that we can no longer clock in and out on our phones

Protip: Don’t go to the wrong terminal then need to run across a huge airport that does not believe in air conditioning

Left the house at 3:00 this AM and it was still 99 degrees. I am very much looking forward to a few days in the Pacific Northwest

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

@DustiBowling Why are these not still around?

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

@MerriamWebster @MerriamWebster always comes through!

When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true, but - because of distance - not for millions of years.

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

@dsantat It’s the 99% hope that is most impressive!

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

I’m dogsitting and I keep hearing faint sounds of activity in the house. It’s almost as if two timelines are occurring at once but not quite meeting one another. So, just a heads up that I’m about to be dragged into either a horror film or the multiverse

[兔兒神 @chenchenwrites]

i do not have patience for the belief that art shouldn’t be political. are you not alive? are you not dying? is the planet not in crisis? do you think your enemies care how beautifully subtle you can be? or that your so-called allies care about the ‘longevity’ of your work?

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

The work isn’t critically discussing the material; it’s fitting that discussion into someone else’s mold that is exhausting

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

The course I’m required to take for my degree path and is only offered in the summer is actually making me work and I’m mad about. Like, yes, technically I have more time to the work but I certainly don’t have the motivation

[Sarah G. Chanis @chanisgrace]

Okay, after spinning my wheels for a few hours, I’m not actually mad about doing work for this class

I have plenty of intelligent things to say about these books, but I can’t figure out how to fit them into the restrictive questions we’re supposed to answer
