@mhgalluccireads I think I actually have our conversations saved on a laptop somewhere, or did at one point. Best not to revisit.

Anyone wanna bet whether these "authentically" sexually assaulted fantasy Middle-Ages women have any armpit hair

Or would that ruin the view

[The Hollywood Reporter @THR]

@HouseofDragon @HBO #HouseoftheDragon “pulls back” on the amount of sex but will depict sexual violence inherent in its Middle Ages-inspired world: “[We] don’t shy away from it. If anything, we’re going to shine a light on that aspect. It shouldn’t be downplayed or glorified” https://t.co/AvVvb8r9by

@cityofguelph Hi! There was a needle on the Basilica steps this evening. Who can I contact to get it safely picked up?

[Laura Cok @lauracok]

@conyerclayton I did ask! I think she was new. And confused. Honestly then I was embarrassed and wanted to drop the whole thing but she’d already called for a manager so I was stuck.

[Laura Cok @lauracok]

@conyerclayton I once had an employee unsure if I were allowed to deface them without buying them. But usually it’s fine!

[Laura Cok @lauracok]

Come out tonight! I’m helping host!

[Laura Cok @lauracok]

@Melgsy @HouseofAnansi @MarilynBiderma @TransLitAgency Amazing news, congrats!!

[Laura Cok @lauracok]
