Drop Dead Gorgepus is available on Tubi - which is free. You're welcome.

The cover for the film Drop Dead Gorgeous! It features the lower half of a woman's face in the upper left she is blowing on her smoking red painted fingernail like its a gun. In four "bullet holes" down the right side are pictures of actors Kirstie Alley, Ellen Barkin, Kirsten Dunst, and Denise Richards all on a hot pink background. It's genuinely one of the best comedies ever made.

How beautiful is the last glow of sunset at the #BeaufortHotel in Beaufort, NC? We took a little weekend trip and had a great time! It was SO dog friendly! And the food was so good! Because it's outside of town it's so peaceful and romantic! I highly recommend going!

The sky is midnight blue in the upper left and turns to light blue across the top with just the faintest pinks and purples far in the center distance. A white fishing boat sits at the dock and to the right is the side and back veranda of the Beaufort Hotel of Beaufort, NC; where guests and diners at the restaurant enjoy the last rays of light as a light breeze welcomes the night. I'm about to go sit in one of the rocking chairs. There is a wooden boat dock in the foreground where you can sail up and tie off your boat, if you're lucky enough to live that life.

This clickbait article freaking out about cocaine drops is just fundamentally misunderstanding what cocaine does/is. It's a vasoconstricter - it reduces blood flow creating numbness through loss of blood flow to tissues. That's why a lot is bad. A little works great.

Paleface Swiss was amazing live!

My current read is Hardcore Happiness by Reid Chancellor a great graphic non fiction work about his mental health journey and punk rock history. It was hard to put it down long enough to write this, it's really engaging so far! Punk rock has always been my happy place, so I really like this.

The cover of the book Hardcore Happiness by Reid Chancellor. The cover is hand drawn cartoon style and features a punk rock guy playing with drum sticks on RX bottles and a one week med case set up like a drum kit with medication flying out of the med case as he strikes it. In the background are sketches of various punk rock characters. The background color is yellow.

Next up on the reading list! It's a pretty safe bet that this will be good.

The cover of the book 'Between the World and Me' by Ta-Nehisi Coates.
The cover is simple, white with black lettering resembling news type. There is a gold National Book Award Winner sticker on the right side (another sign this book is a good read! )

I finally finished 'Sacré Bleu' - a story whose main character runs a bakery and is a painter in Paris, France In the first half of the book I found out I had a profound wheat allergy, while I feel much better, it imbued the second half of the novel with a certain personal poignance.

The cover of the book 'Sacre Bleu' by Christopher Moore. The title and author name are in gold lettering. The picture is a drawing of a beautiful blue woman lounging nude on an artist's palette exclusively of blue shades, the palette is slightly paler than the woman. Henri Toulouse-Lautrec loiters in the background with the Eiffel Tower. The woman looks more pinup than artist's model, and she's quaffed with what looks like a voluminous blow out and teased to that just bedded look.

This book made me take up drawing, I don't know how I feel about that.

The cover of Christopher Moore's novel Sacre Bleu - an adventure through Paris with Henri Toulouse-Lautrec and the Impressionists.

A little downturn at the edge of my smile for no reason, but I'm good! I hope!

A woman in black short sleeve pajamas and mala beads smiles, the outside edge of her smile tilts down but she looks happy!

Book 6 is finished! I liked Encountering Kali better than I thought I would- Sarah Caldwell's essay 'Margins at the Center' was an absolute banger, I guess Harvard still has some talent, after all. Next up: more blue women with Sacre Bleu by @theauthorguy.bsky.social! What are you reading?

Two books laid out on my cute floral sheets. On the left is 'Encoutering Kali', a compilation of essays about the Goddess Kali from the University of Cali press. The cover features the title and a painting of Kali commissioned for the book, she is blue, wearing a necklace of skulls, her tongue is out, and she is dancing. On the right is the book Sacre Bleu by Christopher Moore. The cover also features a blue woman, but this one is not adorned with skulls and appendages and is instead of the smoking hot variety. She lounges nude on an artists palette with an absolutely unreasonable amount of hair, it must be a real bitch to brush out.

I've got snow in MC and my mother is in Washington state where it's 50° - could we please focus on climate change?

Stephanie Flynn@stephanieflynn· Jan 31

I thought, "How fun would it be to get some Bailey's for the snow storm?!" But I forgot so I asked my ex if he could grab some for me - I now have enough Bailey's for forever! He must have grabbed the LARGEST bottle they have - so yeah, come hang...

A bottle of Bailey's Irish Cream as big as the coffee maker in the background!! 🤣 (crying laughing emoji) - I'll still be trying to finish this bottle when Death comes to escorts me to the beyond.

Book #6 for the year, and I don't know why I do this to myself. It's from a University Press so while the topic is interesting, the book probably isn't. I guess I'm going to find out.

The cover of the book 'encountering Kali in the margins, at the center, in the west' edited by Rachel Fell McDermott and Jeffrey J. Kripal. It features a painting of the goddess Kali. She's blue and has severed heads about her.

Happy 3 year anniversary of my neighbor's dog FLIPPING ME OFF because I wouldn't let my dog put to play with him! 🤣

A garden glove chewed into a middle finger and left in front of my door exactly upright facing me flipping me off as I walked outside. One of the fingers he chewed off is to the lower left of the glove. The dog chewed off every finger except the middle amd the thumb. I really admire that dog, that's a smart pupper.

Debuting my side shave with updo! I'm going to shave it higher next time - going for a busy Mom warrior on the go kind of thing....

A white woman with brown hair and decent cheekbones for her age poses awkwardly in front of a sm pile of Spite and 7up for whatever reason.

Book 5 of the year - I'm nursing it it's so good! Dashiell Hammett is one of the best, and The Continental Op is a brilliant protagonist with a mess dame by his side. I love it. I absolutely love it.

The very noir 'Detective Magazine' esque cover of Dashiell Hammett's brilliant Red Harvest, a tale of Murder and corruption in a small mining town.

Stephanie Flynn@stephanieflynn· Jan 15

Book #4 and folks - I hate this. The art isn't good is the nicest thing I can say. The writing is godawful. It's so cringe. I deeply regret picking it up. I'm going to finish it, I always finish them - but I'm going to hate every moment. This might be my least favorite book ever.

The graphic novel (?) jinx by brian michael bendis (author's lack of capitalization). The cover is red and black and features a girl (woman?) holding a gun. Don't read it.

Beginning book #2 of the new year - you can't go wrong with Terry Pratchett! And - yep I got it new! Fancy fancy! (The closest shop is new and second hand and they have some great second hand books!)

The cover of Terry Pratchett's book Eric (part of the discworld series). Its various shades of purple around a white mystical symbol (I'm guessing) and in the foreground is a wizard in the same color theme as the cover. He looks ominous.

Stephanie Flynn@stephanieflynn· Jan 6

I'm almost finished with my first book of the 2026 - and folks it's a banger! I've really enjoyed it! Thank you @theauthorguy.bsky.social If you haven't read his work and you like irreverent humor with heart check it out!

The cover of Christopher Moore's book: The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove. It's a bright lime green with a lizard poking his head out of water riffles, he is tossing three pink and yellow capsules into his mouth.

TIL that the roly-poly (aka fat pig, cheese log, cheesy pig, armadillo bug, sow bug, potato bug, wood bug, wood pig, hog-louse,carpenter bug, and it's actual name woodlouse) are crustaceans! Like shrimp or lobster! The only insect I don't find icky and it's not even an insect!!

The frame is divided into 4 pictures in a grid. The upper left is a roly-poly (or pill bug/fat pig/cheesy pig/ sow bug etc) rolled into a ball, it does it for protection or to conserve moisture. The bug has sections like an armadillo and is black with brown areas almost like veins across the shell. In the upper right is another type of woodlouse, it is more yellow and has 2 body segments, the last of them tapers to two brown points. Bottom left there is a white woodlouse, and bottom right a woodlouse ambulating with it's many legs.

My ex is chauffeurring us to brunch this morning! I feel so elegant even though I'm in my hoodie!

Stephanie Flynn@stephanieflynn· Dec 29

The cover of Christopher Moore's The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove. The cover is bright green with a lizards head poking out of ripples that imply a body of water. The lizard is chucking back 3 yellow and pink capsule pills and seems to be smiling. A yellow circle under the title reads Always funny Now cheap - Get Moore for $9.95 (which I think is unnecessary because every guy i knew at college asked if I read Christopher Moore when they saw me holding a book, so I always figured his sales must be decent - anyhoo....) "If there's a funnier writer out there, step forward" - Playboy (really gunning for that demographic, I guess) After deceiving the cover, I feel compelled to say it's really good so far.

We had a lovely Christmas dinner at The Willard rooftop in downtown Raleigh! Their chef is the BEST!

Patients in pain should get pain medicine.

Norman Rockwell painting of town hall meeting. It is almost entirely white men, and one of the white men is standing up apparently giving a comment or speech. He is dressed in the manner of a person in the trades and his hands looked darker, as though still dirty from work, and course, as does his slightly tanned face.

Stephanie Flynn@stephanieflynn· Dec 13

I got the Christmas mugs up! We're only doing this and a tree this year because my pain has been so bad.

A large peg rack holding 42 coffee mugs with either a Christmas theme or Christmas colors. The background is beige (but only because I'm going to remodel the kitchen and I'm waiting for that to paint.

This is my bird. I live at the poverty level at the moment, but I turned out this. That shame spread below was created with a whole job and salary that should have created a better, and better looking meal than mine. And yet.... and I'm not surprised. You can't teach good taste.

If you can see Spite live - you should!!! So fucking good live!!!!
