1. The pride I saw in Gus Walz cheering for his father at the DNC.

2. Three colleagues mentioned that my high energy when I joined Teams calls gave them an energy boost.

3. Seeing grandma. She's in the hospital right now, but it's always great to see one of my first best friends.

4. Video of a Colin Farrell interview about his special needs son for People

5. The Walking Dead - catching up on season 10 & I'm still Team Negan. #HotTake

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @Ruthiella @TheBookHippie @Jari-chan @dabbe @DebinHawaii @Mimi28 Grandma thanks you all for the well wishes! 💛 She is in good spirits, and there's enough family locally that she's had a good amount of visitors. They've scheduled an ultrasound for tomorrow to see if they can get more answers. 4mo
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @LiseWorks The spinoffs are part of the reason we are playing catch up. We're a little spoiled, obviously, on a few survivors, but it's still very intriguing. We always have a ton of shows to watch, so we may not get to them right away, but we are absolutely interested. 4mo
RedxoHearts That reminds me I still have to catch up on The Walking Dead spin-offs. There's just so many shows to watch in general. I've been binge watching Lost lately 4mo
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @RedxoHearts We watch wrestling and sometimes baseball or hockey, so then we cream other shows in where we can. I don't know if we'll go straight into the spin-offs or move onto something else when we finish this lay season. I think I only watched the first session of Lost. 4mo

Don‘t mind me, just gonna nerd out over all the minute details of this one... 🤓😍
Are you pro- or anti-deckle edges? #bookquestions #debate #controversy #hottake

Skeebies05 Pro! Feels old worldly. 7y
Booksnchill Love the edges! 7y

LitLogophile Love them!! 7y
mcipher Anti - I always think they look wrinkled and crooked and the book feels weird to hold. 7y
RaimeyGallant I don't know a lot about them, but pro? 7y
DHill Anti. I think it makes the pages harder to turn. 7y
Scott_BookInvasion I love em. It makes the book have a bit more character and gives it more or a hand-crafted feel. Brings me feelings of the classic books from eras past 7y
Aims42 Team Pro 👍🏻 no real reason why, I just think they make the book look and feel fancier lol 7y
umbrellagirl PRO! Literally just started this and I noticed straight away. 7y
TimSpalding Proooooooo! 7y
kgriffith @umbrellagirl I‘ve had it since its release date and it has been taunting me. Finally started it tonight! 7y
RidgewayGirl I love deckled edges. It makes the book feel more substantial. 7y
Swe_Eva They look and feel nice, but it‘s easier to turn pages on non-deckled. 🤔 ♎️ 7y
kgriffith @mcipher fair points! 7y
kgriffith @Swe_Eva I‘ve not read many and I expected that going in, but I‘m actually finding them easier to turn. I lift from the bottom edge rather than the side, which may matter? There seems to be some air/space between the pages that isn‘t the case when they‘re flush. Like the difference between printer paper right out of a sleeve, and then after you‘ve fanned the edges to give the guide wheels a bit more tooth, if that makes sense? 7y
DebinHawaii Pro--they look so good! 😉 7y
rwmg Anti. I know all books used to be like that but it looks horrible to me, unfinished, the prinrer couldn't be bothered to do a food job 7y
rwmg Good job 7y
Swe_Eva @kgriffith That makes sense, but I turn from the side and tend to get more than 1 page at a time. Plus, I can‘t keep my hands still while I read and tend to smoosh the decking down, unintentionally (but that‘s my personal thing, so please feel free to disregard from argument 🤔🙄😂). 7y
rwmg I hate my new phone sometimes 7y
kgriffith @rwmg Ha, I fully appreciate your frustration 7y
kgriffith @Swe_Eva No disregard at all! This is exactly what I love about book discussion :) 7y
batsy @Swe_Eva My thoughts exactly 😆 7y
