    I attended one of the book events tonight and it was really nice and heard some things that I didn't know I needed to hear and in general was a nice conversation to observe. I've been really down the past few days and it was kind of comforting and brought some needed... I don't want to say lightness as the topics of conversations got heavy, but something.

    There are two more tomorrow evening and Saturday, I can't tell if the latter still has tickets available, but both events include a book (only issue is waiting longer for arrival – mine still hasn't shipped). Just wanted to pass the idea along in case somebody else could use it right now.

    Idk if anyone has read this. But I’m on chapter 2 and about to cry because I’ve been laughing so hard.
    She is a genius.

    Allie did an AMA!

    Fun read, though there's also some heavier materials discussed.

    you know when someone asks "why are you so dressed up"
    and you have to literally explain to them that this is who you are



    asking the important questions



    thanks @extraterrestrial for capturing my essence

    anyway here's my petpet

    According to tracking my copy was delivered earlier, but it's not anywhere where packages are usually left in my building. There's been an ongoing issue with package thieves, so it's not out of the question it got stolen. Part of me wants to just overnight a new copy so I don't have to wait any longer.

    I don't know how much of the profit Allie sees, but Walmart has them in Canada (if that's at all helpful), and they sell them at 40% off the cover price.

    I've been making an effort to buy through indiebound lately, so if I do buy another copy I might do that. I found out that the USPS truck didn't actually show up at my building until a few hours after my delivery scan, so it's possible it got scanned early accidentally, or something.

    I saw her recent FB posts where she's been posting photos of her life during her hiatus to update everyone! Big congrats on her new book

    No need to get a new one, it turned up! Honestly so glad because I was really not into the idea of waiting any longer.
    @(you need an account to see links) I've been following the album, too!

    I was just wondering what happened to her the other day! As others have said, I�m glad she�s okay.
    Her comics speak to my soul. <3
