When your husband is a demon who can bend space and time chances are pretty good you’ll be rescued from the executioner!
Shirt open for extra smexiness! Snackiness?
Enjoy another study on movement to loosen my hand and brain!

I just think that it'd be funny if, after all this speculation about how horrible Crowley's Fall was and his drunken rambling of "a million-light-year freestyle dive into a pool of boiling sulfur", it turned out he just had the longest most boring elevator ride ever down to basement Hell and then stepped in a very small puddle of warm sludge of questionable origin when the doors opened.

the problem with being creative is that you start to feel very guilty when you haven’t created anything in a while

"Don't use Libby because it costs libraries too much, pirate instead" is such a weird, anti-patron, anti-author take that somehow manages to also be anti-library, in my professional librarian-ass opinion.
It's well documented that pirating books negatively affects authors directly* in a way that pirating movies or TV shows doesn't affect actors or writers, so I will likely always be anti-book piracy unless there's absolutely, positively no other option (i.e. the book simply doesn't exist outside of online archives at all, or in a particular language).
Also, yeah, Libby and Hoopla licenses are really expensive, but libraries buy them SO THAT PATRONS CAN USE THEM. If you're gonna be pissed at anybody about this shitty state of affairs, be pissed at publishing companies and continue to use Libby or Hoopla at your library so we can continue to justify having it to our funding bodies.
One of the best ways to support your library having services you like is to USE THOSE SERVICES. Yes, even if they are expensive.
*Yes, this is a blog post, but it's a blog post filled with links to news articles. If you can click one link, you can click another.

Teeth are bullshit. What do you mean you’re decaying. Get a fucking grip. You’re a bone now act like it. You don’t see my finger bones decaying from jerking it too much now do you

I think one of my very favorite things about linguistics is that the subject matter is so available. We're almost all native speakers of a language, and language is all around us every day. Making observations about language is cheap and easy. And linguistics is a young field, so most questions are open and there's lots of low-hanging fruit. Of course you have to put in the work if you want to answer a linguistic question to a high epistemic standard, but when it comes to just playing around you really can do linguistics—meaningful, new linguistics—wherever and whenever. You can just zero in on some thing you notice about how people talk, and bam, that's a research question. It's like a constant smorgasbord of intellectual stimulation. I really cannot recommend getting into linguistics enough.
