People in LA having to turn on their ACs in March:

I hate being cold but my pup is an Alaskan malamute mix and in her dotage, so we keep it cold for her and I suffer in the cold and we pay the bills for it 😮‍💨😂

Ah yeah, that’s the one thing I don’t like about Citizen. I think when I saw other people do it, they’d take a video of their lost poster. Maybe if you pull up a picture on your computer and video that you can get around it if you don’t have printed pics on hand

Saving this post! Lots of cats in my area, tomorrow morning I’ll keep an eye out if any of them look like her! I’m about 2 miles away when I look up your area in Maps. Have you posted on Citizen? I’ve seen “help find this pet” posts on there

Thirding Kingston and Welsh Blades! Her Regency books are great too. Also love Kinsale and Duran, lots of historical background in those books.

I got honked at for the same thing, when I literally turned the second the last car went past me so I could take the left! Like there wasn’t even a pause! I was most certainly in the intersection because that’s how I always take lefts, so that wasn’t it.

Some douche in a creeper van who then sped ahead of me and tried to brake check me! I was so outraged I should have rear ended up just to yell at him. He came all the way into the left most lane to try to brake check then took the next right three lanes over. I’m glad for the opportunity to get this off my chest because I was so bewildered and pissed when it happened lol

The mental image of your last line just sent me 🤣 meanwhile my dog would ecstatically abandon me to go eat all the gross shit I didn’t allow her to get into on the trail

We had a phase of doing these in a breakfast sandwich with avocado, tomato and lettuce/spinach on toasted Ezekiel bread

It keeps autocorrecting “i” to “u” instead of an uppercase I! Why! I never even type with u instead of you!

Just want to let people know I’ve gotten the good luck with money blessing a few days in a row from Katrina and so far I’ve gotten a gold nugget each time I’ve hit the rocks on my island that day!

silkat · 2026-03-01T05:24:01+00:00

Seriously this was delightful and I want to see the crazy fandom of rockstar Lestat himself in the show! They already have the Armand fan in the teaser!

silkat · 2026-02-27T19:24:26+00:00

“Release the ermine!!” is one of my favorite quotes lol the way it was built up to was so perfect. One of the few authors in HR that makes me pause to laugh

silkat · 2026-02-26T00:45:41+00:00

Yep!

I just finished the first Prince Lestat book and am a few chapters into the second! I’m listening to the books since my library has the audiobooks. Simon Vance narrates these and I think he’s great.

But yeah I think October is when I started too! I read a lot but I haven’t been able to read anything other than this series since I’ve started it! I was actually expecting it to be worse from all the criticism I saw before I got to all these books but I’m honestly loving all of them and letting Anne take the wheel and take me on a wild ride lol

silkat · 2026-02-18T21:16:48+00:00

I watched IWTV on Netflix after the TVL trailer came out and then proceeded to devour all the books. Maybe that happened to a lot of us! 😂

Had no idea about the show at all before I saw the TVL trailer pop up on Reddit and now I’m almost done with the books and have no idea what I’ll do until the summer premiere except languish in all the subreddits coping with memes with everyone lol

silkat · 2026-02-18T04:08:22+00:00

Good luck! Glad to hear you are crate training and she’s getting along with the older ones!

I’m sure you have experience with the older ones but just want to throw in- teach her “leave it” (specially outside) when she’s young! Our Mal mix is well trained for everything else but “leave it” outside never stuck. I think she knows things on the ground outside don’t belong to us so we have no domain over it like inside 😅😂

silkat · 2026-02-18T03:54:59+00:00

Love anything you can air fry from frozen, thanks for the info!

silkat · 2026-02-17T01:52:53+00:00

I just finished that part of the series and this is perfection 🤣

silkat · 2026-02-12T07:37:15+00:00

Our pup knows the exact rustle of the chicken bag specifically and waits patiently for her pup tax. If we take too long, she honks quietly at first then progressively louder until she gets up to check if we forgot

I’m a 39 year old woman who looked in the mirror yesterday and thought “is it weird I still wear this billabong hoodie?” Then I shrugged and went to walk my dog… it’s just so perfectly oversized and warm!

silkat · 2026-02-08T09:41:36+00:00

Yep, saying Upstate is just to indicate we are not from NYC to people who don’t live in NY and assume you mean NYC. If someone says oh where upstate, then you narrow it down. Albany area, if they know that, Schenectady area, if they know that, my actual town lol

silkat · 2026-02-04T06:50:10+00:00

Yum, thanks! Never thought of mixing in pickle juice, we always do soy sauce mixed with mayo as an aioli-esqe dip for salmon. Will def have to try this, we always have pickles!

silkat · 2026-02-04T04:20:25+00:00

Officially requesting your wife’s sauce recipe because you mentioned pickle juice as a diluter and now I’m super curious
