In this edition of “witnessing the decline of peak millennial culture”— an old location of the wing selling off their “woman owned book collection” on fb marketplace

“It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.”

happy national only child day !! reach out to your local only child 💓 (also i celebrate this day every year because in 2013 i cried on natl siblings day lol 🥲)

I’M SCREAMING.

i always want to move to the lower east side just for the secret gardens (community gardens) 🥲

this Louis CK bit, rent free forever

captured the great chasm of our times

swipe for inspo pic! i love my trashy hair. 💇🏼‍♀️💇🏼‍♀️

this trend cracks me up. someone commented, “10 sets of tomfoolery” 😂

I cannot believe this started as an iced coffee

years ago, i went to the ER and developed a giant crush on my doctor .. i saw him on HINGE the NEXT DAY, and I accidentally swiped left !!! (??)

I'm in an age gap relationship (my slightly older wife never really listened to Bright Eyes, became almost physically angry upon hearing the intro to 'At the Bottom of Everything' during a road trip)

Realized the kids I babysit probably think I was telling lies all winter. First I said that a groundhog predicted the weather. Then I said we had an extra day that happens every 4 years (& turns 80-year-olds into 20-year-olds!). THEN I started talking about the solar eclipse...

For years, I've had a Goodreads curse: If I mark a book as 'currently reading,' I will -- without fail -- NEVER finish it. I tried to break the cycle two weeks ago, but the 'currently reading' book is still unfinished, and I've read 4 other books in the meantime.

bbs aging is inevitable (being human has a 100% mortality rate and aging is the BEST OUTCOME) and if your plan is to hate yourself every time you notice it, your life is going to suuuuuck

it's still crazy to me that i had no idea this was happening on tumblr. people IRL at the time would talk about thinspo on that site, but i never actually saw it. the tiktok algorithm introduces me to much more; i was in such a literary/indie bubble on tumblr.

specifically the Alice Munro adaptation! i think kristen wiig is very talented, but that movie was baffling in general

i’ll never forget when picador threw a lil party for rachel cusk in the publisher’s tiny office in the flatiron building and she spent the whole time with one of those fat robot dick custom vape rigs glued to her hand blowing smoke into andrew wylie and john sargent’s faces

Anne Tyler forever

I'm 40 years old today, in lieu of gifts or casting me as an 80-year-old woman in a movie please buy my novel so they will let me publish more novels bookshop.org/p/books/mobili…

Thought these vegan chicken nuggets were Rachel Cusk books.
