Frequently flabbergasted. Likely reading a book.

@LouisatheLast lol Harrow does not go to prom but she does maybe wear this to make soup or attend an excruciating dinner with Jod?

[do you feel like you’re a part of it? @NONBlNARY]

me, having reconstructed my entire being around the concept of going bowling at 7 tonight, watching my world shatter before me: yeah its nbd

@clhubes Honestly I'm not even sure how people single parent just a toddler? Currently in my second day solo parenting while husband isolates (COVID exposure) and I've already informed him I will be running away to the circus after he is back in commission, I'm so exhausted

@mal_skinner @sonyashea3 Is this really representative of their relative heights?? Incredible

@2nickels Your dog is an angel and is that your HOME?? It is magical

@1followernodad Genius level organization, particularly like the comment on how long it takes to make the pot pie. Nothing like starting an ambitious dinner too late and stress-cooking until 9 pm

@jessav_writes Perhaps it's because their knees and back haven't started to go yet? As a woman in her 30s, I know I could not do 90% of the things the protagonists in SFF are written as doing! (Also, I totally agree with you! Interesting, mature protagonists please!)

@virginiahanusik Breathtaking!

@youinthebushes @juliareinstein It is not a jaw harp but the star does turn!

@literElly Thanks! 😊

@JupiterLeaps @bookishseawitch Thank you, I'll try that!

@JenaFriedman I always mask in indoor public spaces. Love being the only mom at storytime wearing a mask. Not making any friends, I guess, but hopefully there's some point to being masked in a space where my toddler is not?

@i_zzzzzz Never can pass up an opportunity to brag about receiving marriage resumes meant for the Rachel Friedman who is a yenta in Israel! Truly hilarious stuff, makes up for all the other same-name garbage I get

I once performed at the Christmas service of my community choir's church. Not much rehearsal which was tough for me, a Jew who does not know any Xmas music and was periodically the only soprano, but we made it work. It was lovely & I learned "El Burrito Sabanero" which rocks 🧡

@MediaHistoryNow @JosephFinn @TheRaDR And why do you think that might be? With the immense, inescapable social pressure I imagine some non-Christians have had to reckon with complicated feelings from their children or themselves. And why should a Christian holiday be a federal holiday when others are not??

People say Twitter-as-news has made us stupider, but deducing what actually happened from the jokes is a SKILL. You try and make sense of the Bay of Pigs Invasion from two hundred accounts tweeting, 'It's me, I'm the pigs.'

@Crusinberry_M @clhubes Ours is 16 months, and I do the "nod and smile" way more often than I thought I'd need to with a fellow native English speaker. We just realized that "chapu" is kind of an interrogative particle? She's been saying it to us for months.
