I go places and look at things, take photos and write reports. I will do this for you, if you pay me. Feel free to DM. Sci-fi nerd, learning to live and love better than I did yesterday. You can find me with leather boots and an audiobook. Or cooking.

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

Has anyone else noticed groceries got like 20 percent more the last few weeks?

"I know they act crazy, but it's just so fun" Crazy, non connected and toxic plot twists! So fun!

People who don’t DNF books probably stay in bad relationships too. “My partner will change one day.” Maybe it will pick up at 50%. “My partner is so attractive though.” It has a pretty cover! “We’ve been together for years.” I’m at 60%! “They are so charismatic.” It has a 5 ⭐️ rating! #booksky
