Just found out about “Geraldene” — that new(ish) Miranda Lambert song. My family had a Geraldene. Her name was actually Jeri.

Times where I felt like I was living in a story: (Some of these were fairytale moments, some of these were … literary fiction moments.)

Mmmm. I have an entire story about this … because I always have a story.

It finally happened. I was driving home from work in my car — the White Pony.

(It’s the White Pony, because you’re not supposed to ride the White Horse. A little joke for the Laid Back fans.)

This summer is so hot that, even though I didn’t really plan on having kids before, I’m terrified of having any now. I don’t want to be responsible for bringing anyone else into this climatic hellscape — which makes me sad, because it shouldn’t be a hellscape now for the folks who are already here.

Making a condensed version of a longer (genealogy) thread, just to compile the most relevant tweets: This is where I started.

With my parents today. So far, it’s been a quotable affair. My mom, who is relatively traditional: “It’s because of the patriarchy. It is!”

My dad: “The patriarchy? What’s that?”

[She briefly explains the meaning of patriarchy.]

Dad: “Oh.”

The top-rated review on Goodreads outlines all of the ways that the book’s characters are prejudiced — misogynists, racists, religious zealots, etc. But I’m thinking, “That’s kinda the point! Women — including a Black woman — are routinely ignored during this story. Even though it’s pretty obvious that they’re right.”

Started listening to this audiobook while I was WFH today.

I’m already halfway through it. A book cover. It depicts two orange peaches on a black backg About forty minutes into it, or thereabouts, I was like, “Oh, they’re going to make this into a movie. Or a limited series. This is the kind of material they’re looking for.”

This: The right-wing grifters — professional grifters and pundits who get paid to yell on conservative “news” outlets — are ramping up their criticism of Hillary, AOC, and Ilhan Omar.

Curiously, they’re having a hard time turning Biden into a boogeyman.

The Girl With The Green Ribbon Around Her Neck. TGWTGRAHN has a special significance for me.

By the way, good morning to all of my followers, who I hope are having a good morning.

My morning has been unusual, to say the least.

I opened the back door and my neighbor’s 130-pound (59kg, folks!) Rottweiler ran inside. Now, this is a scary dog.

The dog is so scary that this all happened an hour ago and yet my heart is still hammering.

I was trying to come up with the ultimate S***h D****n-esque plot for a hypothetical YA novel.

I think I’ve got a solid-gold idea. Meet Hope.

(We can rename her, if necessary. I think Daisy would be an equally charming name.)

This thread includes recollections of the (admittedly very strange) dreams I’ve had during August and September. Let’s start with a truly inexplicable dream.
