I am always reading one of Jarod K Anderson’s collections of poems and I recommend them to everyone.
Currently reading, “The Bullet Swallower” by Elizabeth James García. Yes, I would recommend it to any fans of magical realism and/or Cormac McCarthy.
Last book I read was “The Mirror and the Light” by Hilary Mantel. I would recommend it only to history nerds like me lol
Appreciate the nuance! Also fully agree on the risk all new builds carry. I’m just salty because I spent all week arguing with them about the definition of the word façade lol
I can only speak for the Southern US but, developers want to build front-loaded units in subdivisions because they are more profitable. A rear-loaded garage costs a shit ton more in materials and labor, not to mention getting into impervious surface maximums vs lot size etc. I work in permitting/zoning, it’s always money, always. Heads up, y’all, don’t buy a D.R. Horton house if you can possibly avoid it, the more you know✨️
This has been the defining struggle of my queer existence lol
It really is. It actually makes me sad. I’m the grown daughter of a father who sounds a lot like the person you responded to. I love my dad and it’s a complicated relationship as he really doesn’t think he’s a misogynist, he truly believes he’s just “telling it like it is.”
It made me furious for years and now it deeply saddens me. He will never have the chance to truly know his daughter because he is literally incapable of seeing me as an equal in terms of basic humanity. And that is sad because I’m delightful and smart and wickedly funny when I’m comfortable with someone, he doesn’t get to see the authentic version of his own offspring, what a loss…
Very recent, I’m still in the glowy happy haze of it. My partner and I just got married and we’ve got an old, fixer-upper property that we plan to make into our own haven of weirdness haha I’m excited to keep building this wild life together.
Demise details unclear, but I’m excited to find out! May require a safe word lol
Details of demise unclear but I’m excited to find out, may need a safe word lol
Explaining would destroy the mystery which would be uncool since they’ve been working so carefully on building it.
