I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It's both wonderful and disconcerting

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I would not be surprised if Trump developed a tentacle at this point.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

A friend of mine Tweeted that it's all very Masque of the Red Death.

I like melon when ripe. Two years ago I posted I knew we were in the upside down because I had fruit salad at a work meeting and the melon was actually ripe. Two days later I broke my ankle.

It's madness that I was offline two hours (puppy play date with a friend) and I'm like "omg what news did I miss because anything could've happened!!"

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Bryan Fuller enthusiastically replies to and retweens shippy Hannibal fan art, because he's a bigger Hannigram shipper than the rest of the fandom combined.

I've been retweeted by Fuller. It wasn't even anything shippy.

I have no use for honeydew, but ripe cantaloupe is one of my favorite things.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Maybe turtles have extra immunity?

This made me laugh!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

You guys can send all your melons to me. Except not watermelon (boring and pointless) and not cantaloupe (too risky since anything less than perfectly ripe will taste like soggy cardboard and you can't tell unless you cut it open and try a piece).

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Isn't it a little bit eerie that we haven't had any Prez tweets? The gap is kinda howling. And possibly full of tentacles.

Matt, I had to laugh--I had no idea you knew the "on the roof" story.

I like canteloupe, and if someone will scoop me tasty little seedless watermelon balls I'll eat them, but Honeydew is way too sweet.

Is it migraine season? And also, my body seems to be forcibly reclaiming its time for late nights by demanding naps. Can I just snooze till Nov. 5th?

What is even happening?

We grew cucumbers this summer, and they're crisper when you pluck them from your garden and eat them minutes later. Every time I have one, I'm struck by how they're just watermelon's little sibling.

@TheRealHoarse:

A group of people ignore a beloved woman's dying wish and rush to take advantage of her death.
They hold an event to announce their corrupt plan...
...and then one by one they start falling ill.
Gotta admit, it's all very Stephen King.

@StephenKing:

Have to admit it sounds like one of mine. Except where are the tentacles? There should be tentacles.

My mind went there last week, during the super spreader event for Amy Covid Barrett, before Trump's Covid diagnosis. [link]

I will take all the (decent) watermelon.
