@four4thefire Tater rounds = more crunch

@MizTeeFranklin I know you’re better than that. I just… I’m not sure what I’d say in that situation.

[amy lauren (they/them) @handjiving]

@MizTeeFranklin Please tell me you asked them if they were a Chad or a Karen.

I love that my surly old (10) Boston Terrier now randomly jumps into my lap and throws his body against mine for hugs. 😍 [emoji: smiley face with red heart eyes]

@britcastle @MarieCoppola68 I love your artwork and own a few of them. Keep it up, @britcastle!

@DruHealy There are no answers… only the will to survive, to make it through to the other side.

TFW you’ve hit “submit” and all time slows to a near stop while you wait for a response

@sim_kern I’m sure it isn’t good… that’s the impression that I get.

@gabrielablandy I have a specific song. When I hear it, I know that wherever I am or whatever I’m doing, I’m supposed to pay close attention to what’s happening.

[amy lauren (they/them) @handjiving]

@WeAreAutastic But I don’t know what’s happening! Guess I’ll have to get comfortable waiting to find out.

[amy lauren (they/them) @handjiving]

I’m not sure I want to write fiction, but I am? With creative nonfiction, I know how it’s going to end, and that’s comforting. Fiction writers: how do you have the fortitude? Tell me your secrets.

@MaxieMoosie @mykola I once had a professor, from whom I took multiple classes, comment that she loved my cynicism. I’m like, “I’m being drop-dead serious, at all times.” Her comment really gave me pause as to how others see me.

@DeafOn4Wheels I never see you as a victim through your posts; I see someone being real about how it is for them.

[amy lauren (they/them) @handjiving]

I love how my doggos know when I’m having a rough day, so they give me extra snuggles. We don’t give animals enough credit.

[amy lauren (they/them) @handjiving]

@MizTeeFranklin No, not at all. I meant this post.

[amy lauren (they/them) @handjiving]

@MizTeeFranklin @GMA I can remove if it’s a problem… not my intention at all.

[amy lauren (they/them) @handjiving]

It was exciting seeing @MizTeeFranklin quoted on @GMA this morning! Thank you for your activism.

@AuthorKASmith Same to you! You’ve got coffee and a pet—it’s a good start. ☺️ (closed smile emoji)
