Every time someone tweets something about libertarians I read it as librarians and I get confused for like 20 seconds
Also thought I read in Robert Peary’s North Pole memoir that “a beautiful white FOG came to the ship and attempted to get on board”
and when I reread it, I again misread it as “a beautiful white FROG.”
Turns out it was a white fox. And that I had a fever. #braintypos

#BrainTypos: Just misread "nature writers whose descriptions are personal meditations" as "nature writers whose descriptions are personal MELTDOWNS"
and damn, girl, mood
#BrainTypos: Just misread the bio for Priscilla Wilson's memoir GOURD GIRLS (which looks charming!) as "She worked for the Atlanta Council Camp of FERAL Girls"
And I was like, "yes, I have worked at a sleepaway camp; this lady GETS it." @clandyjane
#BrainTypos: Just misread a line in an upcoming book as "Millions of POEMS arrived in Florida during the time frame 2000–2010."
That's a lovely thought.
Misread a job description as "uses WORDS OF POWER, graphics, and social media to promote [our company]" today
And until I realized it was actually "power of words," I was 100% like "this company wants to hire a wizard from Earthsea as a marketing assistant, dang." #BrainTypos
