My mom took the big kids for a sleepover last night so Nick and I had time to watch something. I don’t know why the choosing of something to watch seems harder than it’s ever been. We don’t have a TV series we are into right now. We tried Our Friends and Neighbors, but I am sick of watching rich people behaving badly onscreen when so many rich people are behaving badly in real life. It’s kinda tedious. We used to all have a collective idea of what movies were being released and what everyone else was watching. I miss going into a Blockbuster video so hard. I also miss movie trailer commercials on TV. I feel totally in the dark about what to watch next.
And this is how we ended up with the Poop Cruise. It’s the number one show on Netflix right now. So there we were.
Nick and I did a very special episode of Under the Influence with our thoughts. But below are a few of them, plus my highs and lows from the week including making our new porch reading couch bed.
I’ll be ending the offer of a free subscription for this newsletter for orders of Everyone is Lying to You on pub week so get those orders in. If every single subscriber to this newsletter gets it now we may defeat the patriarchy and JD Vance will cry and then his eyeliner will run.
Here is the Amazon link. I know it is often the easiest one. This is a list of more purchasing options, but it is also available at a lot of indie bookstores and you can get signed copies mailed to you here and here. Tour stops are here!
