Giving a somewhat lackluster review of Isabel Allende's "The Wind Knows My Name". IMO it's just not her best work but still worth reading.
For #spookyseason we have #thereformatory from Tananarive Due. The premise alone gives me chills 😩

The Dream ownership group released an open letter to the city of Atlanta.
“2 months ago, when the WNBA finalized playoff dates & times, we raised concerns that the W Finals schedule conflicts. Our concerns didn’t receive the attention, nor urgency they deserved.”

It's precisely because he didn't show mercy to the Black people of Chicago, that he will never be president.🤷🏿♂️
1. You can't win the US presidency as a Democrat if Black people don't like you.
2. Black people don't like Rahm Emanuel because of what he did after cops killed LaQuan McDonald.
Starting my day with @ifbookspod.bsky.social letting me know that Politico wants us to be clear: Rahm Emmanuel eats salads just like the rest of us, but harder
Cheerios is boldly going where no cereal has gone before: a resealable Ziploc bag.
The option will be available on Original and Honey Nut Cheerios beginning Tuesday, online at Walmart, before rolling out to retailers nationwide in the coming months.
I'm hearing that if the Valkyries win it all on Thursday, the trophy ceremony might be somewhere other than the court, because of time constraints. So there's that. #WNBA
The largest chocolate manufacturers made the switch and hoped you wouldn’t notice but now the price of cacao is collapsing which threatens the economic stability of these countries. Anyway if you love chocolate here are some great African brands to choose from. www.tasteatlas.com/best-rated-c...
No one needs to tell me how good these teams are defensively, but the last 10 minutes of basketball sure do feel like a great argument for not playing 5 Finals games in a 10-day span. Both teams look like they’re running on fumes.
I’m still angry.
It’s one thing to know leadership doesn’t care about the league and its players. But I think about how while celebrating 30 years of defying the odds, a brand new champion is guaranteed and planning for the finals has been a complete afterthought. #wnba
and to echo many other folks sentiment on this, the NBA/Hawks/WNBA unable to move Hawks game to the afternoon for a reg. season contest versus a potential championship winning game is terrible optics.
Hawks should have their game at 12:30p and let the Dream take the 8p slot. They could potentially win the championship on Thursday and they're going to do it in the middle of the work day????
A source with direct knowledge of the situation tells USA TODAY that Game 6 will be at State Farm Arena at 12:30 P.M. ET on Thursday.
ESPN was first.
State Farm will see a double-header (again) during these Finals. Hawks play at 8 p.m. ET that night.
Story to come.
Seriously? A potential clinching game of a major sports league's championship series is going to take place in the middle of the work day? NBA and Atlanta Hawks should be ashamed of letting this happen this way. Absolutely absurd.
My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today.
Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.
The Dream swept the Liberty 3-0 and learned they were headed to the finals on October 9.
That gave the W 20 days to plan for a potential game 6. They opted not to.
Now they have 3 days. And still no announced plan.
Omg no, he was so young. Damn. He was such a talented voice actor. It’s on the mind because I literally just watched it yesterday, but he got asked to do the taken monologue as porky pig and its a masterpiece

Florida A&M University's homecoming night ended in horror and heartache Saturday, Oct. 25, after gunfire broke out following the football game outside Bragg Memorial Stadium, injuring at least a dozen people, six of them children.
I know I was a JERK to a lot of my friends from roughly 11-13. I remember vividly reuniting with summer camp friends at 14 and them gushing about how much nicer I was 😖😩😂
