Threads of books I've read from 2020 onwards

@wynrosei Phone up the box office and read your card details over the phone

I’m curious : Before the digital era, how did people get concert tickets? 40 thousand people lining up outside the stadium????

What is your excitement level for this out of 10?

@JJDeals01 @leshaami Bro you are so close to getting it

@BooLeanneLogic @leshaami If they don’t exist why are they killed, last I checked you can’t kill something that isn’t living

Hi, so the woman who carried and gave birth to me was 13 years old, celebrated her 14th birthday only days before I was born. I should’ve been aborted. It’s really terrible that she was made to carry and birth a baby while she was a child herself. Am I happy to be alive? Yes. Absolutely. Very happy to be here. Would I be mad had I been aborted? No, I wouldn’t exist, I wouldn’t feel anything. I shouldn’t exist. She was a child. The lives of girls/women are more valuable than fetuses.

@JJDeals01 @leshaami What nature of reality does a person who does not exist face?

@leshaami Your feelings do not invalidate the reality that millions of unborn children face, A black person can say they weren’t affected by slavery it doesn’t make the slavery ok I understand where you’re coming from but again your feelings do not override the reality

@HiddenYorkshire Line of Duty and Broadchurch remain my standard bearers for British Cop Dramas. Two of the very best.

Who remembers Line of Duty? Everyone was obsessed with it. I'd spend 6 hours glued to iPlayer to catch up on the series. The finale divided a nation. You don't hear a peep about it now

@DrFrancisYoung @HiddenYorkshire Now we're sucking diesel

@Bedazled_Trike @em_Lazzy Yeah that's weird, it stays in the list

@em_Lazzy Tax is the easiest to explain so I'll take a crack at it! We have multiple different taxes, Federal, State, County, and City could all potentially tax you, and all of those rates get added. so a Walmart one city over may be charging a different price due to a different tax rate.

MM/DD/YYYY Tipping culture Very high toilet water Guns being sold in a supermarket Ability to supersize things The concept of Jaywalking Vacation days Tax not included in final prices of goods Healthcare Portion size

Phrases that need to be retired: • “sausage fest” • “unalived” • “my bingo card” • “today years old” • “yuk your yum” • “let your freak flag fly” • “just let people enjoy things”

@ThrillaRilla369 If that's the only option I would legitimately rather be dead

To the women who are on this app im going to ask again, be honest If you could stay home, raise babies and run a cozy homemaker life.. Would you??

@dewdroplin Left, read Right, donate

Besties do I read or unhaul these two? Been sat on my shelf for a longtime and I keep seeing bad reviews on booktwt (booktok seems to love)

@Mappy6984 Mission impossible 3 shit

Ya just never know who you pull up next to at a stop light

@shannon_said The cutie patootie years

This pisses me off, and I bet you can tell why.

@DerCryptaxis @amazingatheist He did a campaign for gucci with Tyler the Creator and asap rocky and it was so weird to see him wearing a shirt

@amazingatheist 🤔...I don't think I've ever seen that guy wearing a shirt anywhere now that you mention it

I'm sorry. How is this suddenly a discourse? Iggy Pop has performed without his shirt on for his entire decades-spanning career. Now, a bunch of idiots who probably just heard his name for the first time today are getting upset about it because he's old and wrinkly? So what's the idea? That he should put a shirt on to spare you from having to see his body? You essentially want him to be a coward that hides himself for the sake of your comfort. That's not very rock'n'roll. The body is part of the performance. Always has been. If you were fine with it when that body was young and tight, but now suddenly find it offensive because it’s old and wrinkled, then the problem is not him; the problem is that you’ve been trained to see aging as some kind of indecency.

@amazingatheist Iggy pop repels shirts and has done his whole life.

@fitzgeraldrkive The chances of me recalling a single thing about a book I read 5 years ago is so, so small. I have read over 400 books since then 💀

@BooLeanneLogic hey, i had some questions about home fire. i had someone recommend it to me for a project. would you be down to help me figure out if it actually applies to my research questions?

I've had the book Home Fire by Kamila Shamsie for 4 years. It was longlisted for the Booker, DSC shortlisted and won the Women's Prize but I always avoided it because I didn't like the title or cover (and the pbk was similar), but it is truly excellent.

@1009ENHH @rudbergcline Apart and a part are different. And in this context their meanings are opposed. Apart, you could say.

@rudbergcline Politically no uk is not apart of Europe geographically yes we are apart of Europe hope this helps

when an artist announces a tour and says it’s an “uk and europe tour” UK. IS. IN. EUROPE. THERES NO NEED TO SAY IT SEPARATELY. DO U NEED A GEOGRAPHY LESSON OR WHAT??

People who post on LinkedIn and love their corporate career terrify me.

@elliehodges62 I hate equity

I genuinely can’t believe I’m reading this correctly!!! Why should being on benefits entitle someone to a near free trip to some of London’s biggest tourist attractions? These are places that thousands of working people pay full price for every single day. People who work hard are already struggling with the cost of living and often can’t even afford to take their own children to these places. Yet somehow, those on Universal Credit are being given access at a fraction of the cost. And then people wonder why more and more are claiming benefits. When the system starts rewarding those who aren’t working over those who are, something has clearly gone very wrong.

@HoldMyHaLo @aliasocfan "Hey, that sounds like Creed. I never thought I'd be happy to hear anything that sounds like Creed

@aliasocfan Yall obviously aren't familiar with the comedic masterpiece Without a Paddle

A certain actor in horror very much gives this energy, but he's nice to people at conventions. So people don't make fun of him enough.

@anactualwalnut Let people enjoy a pastry who knows when all this shit is gonna come cascading down.

Sorry to be a food shamer but something that is actually really insane to me as someone who doesn’t even diet are the people who believe a pastry is breakfast. You fr just had a scone or a cinnamon roll or a coffee cake to start your day. Zero protein whatsoever. Nothing. Just a pastry.
