Finding out I’m 1/32 Italian was not on my 2025 bingo card.

I took part in an interview talking about prophecies in The Cruel Gods! I love what Indie Bites do, and you too can submit stories and become part of it!

Oh no if it isn’t the consequences of their actions Get trolled maggot

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Man this current top ten is such a mix lmao

Got to 15% on the essay compendium I started earlier this month. That’ll put me at 3/6 books for February- with less than 10 days for 3 more 😭 might need to break out some of my less than 200 page books or use my emergency “3-6 manga” this year (I set a soft goal of 72 books with a hard goal of 30)

Hungry. I wanna eat yogurt and devour a good book. Unsure which to start with lmao

Finishing the Dead Rising 2: Off the Record Xbox One achievements with a friend while grinding the Plat (PS4) is so dull. Finished the 100,000 kills achievement because the kill glitch messes up ALL achievements tied to unlocks and levels. PS4? Worked fine. 10+ hrs lost.

I’m actually nervous that I got sick. I haven’t really been leaving the house since I’m not working, and yet I keep sneezing so much. Really frustrating.

CA: Brave New World was… fine. Aggressively so. A 6.5-7/10 for me and my husband. 5.9 on IMDb.

Took a few days break from reading and sat down with a game! Been playing Dead Rising 2: Off the Record with a friend, aiming for the 100% on Xbox. Also finishing the grind for the PS4 Platinum- friend currently doesn’t have his PS4 so we’re running it on Xbox for now 😅

Uh oh, I didn’t post yesterday! Just played Dead Rising 2: Off the Record 💀 Anyone else have Xbox go nuts and stop popping achievements? It stopped at 14 when I should be at like 21 lol

Fighting the MIGHTY URGE to go into the book store before going home (I did 3 errands today and my mind requests a ✨treat✨).

Finally completed the #pokemontcgp dex for Mystical Island 😭 I just need the 6 remaining star cards. I’m also super close in Genetic Apex. I hope I can finish both as a Free To Play player, as I immediately regretted dropping money on the game when it first launched. At least with packs I own them..

Taking my shot at 1 am and then crushing some water before laying down for bed with my kindle feels very adult of me

Hey #booksky, how many books do you own in your physical collection? I’ll go first. As of today, we own 1,511! (Plus over 55 digital). :)

Monday thought:

I GOT THE JOB OMG

They’re fixing the car for ⭐️ free ⭐️

Omg I missed the call back from the recruiter 💀 thankfully he’s calling me again in an hour (he immediately emailed me thank god). Still waiting on Hyundai to call me about my repair.

Genuinely confused that some people didn't hear the musicality in Kendrick's Superbowl performance. It's in the voice, friends. American schools really need to bring back the study of poetry!

I was informed yesterday that they are most likely warrantying my Hyundai, meaning I bought my Mitsubishi for almost nothing 😭 but hey I’ll have a free rental Hyundai probably tomorrow. Not that I need it? I’d rather they paid me lmao

Nothing quite like sending an email to your recruiter for the job you interviewed for last week at 12:15 am (thankfully I know they won’t see it until the morning!) but dang am I nervous 😭 I really hope I get the job things are stressful

Finally looked up how to change my font on my kindle and made the adjustment. Hoping it’ll make reading a bit quicker- sometimes changing pages so often and fast would tire me out 😭
