Today's story - "Kikelomo Ultrasheen" by Dare Segun Falowo. Lovely mashup of magic, family, and Nigerian myth. Plus everything you needed to know about the power of hair braiding.

Today’s sign at Trader Joe’s was “Eggs – no limit!“ the refrigerator was full, and some person in front of me bought six dozen. That’s a lot of quiche.

Denial isn't just for insurance companies any more.

Me eating Trader Joes cashews with Thai chili and lime: damn, I need to add some of these into my next noodle dish! <Yeah, I'm avoiding a difficult scene in the WIP.>

Is there *anything* as disheartening as trying to decipher a medical bill?

"all artistic works / books / music should be free" Cool. I'll make every single book of mine completely & totally free forever & ever when we have universal basic income & universal free health care. Until then, I still have to find a way to eat & that means my *labor* must be compensated.

Just finished my much-anticipated library copy of A DROP OF CORRUPTION by @robertjbennett.bsky.social. Is it too much to say he just GETS IT? His books get better and better with each iteration. Truly original storytelling. 5/5 goddamn stars.

Life = one long panic punctuated by cups of tea.
