#5JoysFriday @debinhawaii (thanks for the tag and for reminding us of joy! 😘)

1. Even though Phoenix has now broken even more records for heat this week (we've been in the 80s F when we should be in the high 60s), I have not lost my cool ... yet.
2. The monologues of Colbert, Kimmel, and Meyers have been helping me to cope with our fucked-up country.
3. Matt. #always
4. Pippa #always
5. Kate #always
All are welcome to share their joys. 🩶🩷🩶

dabbe @bookandbedandtea Lordy be, me neither. 😭🔥😭 2w

LiseWorks I could always try to mail you some snow ❄️. Before the tariffs kick in in March 🤣 2w

Aims42 I never really watched Seth Meyers before, but he‘s a new favorite for me because of 🍑🤡. I re-watch his episodes the following day 👍 2w

AmyG @bookandbedandtea I thought the same thing. While 70 is nice….NOT in Feb. (edited) 2w

willaful I can't watch political comedians anymore. :-( The closest I get is Josh Johnson, because he's so mellow.
2w

bookandbedandtea @AmyG Exactly! I LOVE 70° but it feels wrong in winter. 2w

DogMomIrene Yikes on those temps! Stay cool 😎 2w

dabbe @LiseWorks Are you tariff-taunting me? 😂🤩😘 2w

dabbe @Aims42 I do the same with all three. That's basically how I get my news, and they all give me the words to laugh about it--if I can. 😅 2w

dabbe @AmyG IKR? 🥴 2w

dabbe @willaful I completely understand. I might be heading in that direction, too, if things continue to go down the sewer. 🤯 2w

dabbe @DogMomIrene Thank the engineer gods for air conditioning. 😂 2w

Aims42 @dabbe Haha, exactly! 😆😭 2w

mcctrish I have been enjoying the political satire, it‘s reassuring on so many levels. I am sick of winter though 🥶 2w

Lesliereadsalot 80s sounds good to me as it‘s 20s here and my son says it‘s snowing in Seattle (nobody ventures out in the snow there!) 2w

Suet624 Yes, all three are a must for me to watch. 2w

kspenmoll Political satire essential!!!!! 2w

dabbe @mcctrish I'd trade you for, say 24 hours. 😂🤩🤗 2w

dabbe @Lesliereadsalot I would where you are, too! Say 24-48 hours? 🤩😂🤗 2w

dabbe @Suet624 👊🏻❣️👊🏻 2w

dabbe @kspenmoll #amensista! ❣️👊🏻❣️ 2w

mcctrish @dabbe I might want a bit longer 😉 2w

DogMomIrene @dabbe Yep! After living in Tucson for years, when we moved to PEI the house we bought had no AC. We put in heat pumps last spring. Their cooling feature works well, especially with the humidity here. Thanking the engineer gods for sure! 2w

TheLudicReader #2, right? You gotta laugh because the alternative is unbearable. 2w

dabbe @DogMomIrene Wowza! What a switch in weather that must have been! Someday I'd love to visit eastern Canada. A girl can dream! 🩶🩷🩶 2w

dabbe @TheLudicReader I've heard it said that humor comes from the darkest of places. Now I truly know why. 🤯😮‍💨😂 2w

dabbe @TheLudicReader BTW, I ADORE your new photo! 🩶🩷🩶 2w

TheLudicReader @dabbe, I got your Christmas card today. (Very weird to get mail on a Saturday, but there wasn‘t a single piece of mail all week) Did you ever get my card/letter/little gift? I sent it Dec 21. 2w

dabbe @TheLudicReader No, I didn't. 😟 Does it show on your end that it was delivered? 2w

TheLudicReader @dabbe…it was just in an envelope. Hopefully it will show up. Things are moving slowly through the system. The gift is whatever…but I wrote a l-o-n-g-a-s-s letter, too. 😭 2w

dabbe @TheLudicReader I sent my card in mid-December, so I will not give up hope! It's all I've got these days. 🤗 2w

Deblovestoread Oh no! I hadn‘t seen this. Beyond heartbreaking especially with #ldf‘s response. 3w

dabbe @AmyG @Aims42 @DaveGreen7777 @AnnCrystal @InkedBookworm13 @Librarybelle Susanita @EmberIvyRose @Meshell1313 @TheLudicReader @MaureenMc @Devlovestoread
Unbelievably sad and to have the #ldf (lame-duck felon) blame Biden and his “diversity in hiring“ policy is beyond horrific. 😔🥺🤬 3w

InkedBookworm13 @dabbe of course he will. He can't admit it's because he fired the heads of the TSA, the coast guard and the members of the Aviation Security Advisory Committee last week. 3w

Aims42 @dabbe Pete Buttigieg‘s response was perfect: @pete.buttigieg/post/DFdUI9_R7EB?xmt=AQGzAV-_GKXyocYCbf5gIgGVsa8XyJQpLtFPG32kpLA2-A" rel="nofollow" target="_top">https://www.threads.net/@pete.buttigieg/post/DFdUI9_R7EB?xmt=AQGzAV-_GKXyocYCbf5... 3w

dabbe @Aims42 @InkedBookworm13 How oh how are we going to be able to withstand 4 years of this? It's only week 2! 😫 3w

Aims42 @dabbe That‘s the big question 🫣🫠 I think my forehead is going to have a permanent dent in it from all the facepalming I‘ve done 🤦‍♀️ 3w

dabbe @Aims42 And the big crease I have on my forehead above my nose is going to become an abyss by all the eye-scrunching-in-disbelief I have done and will be doing. 😝 3w

Aims42 @dabbe Haha! Same 🤣 I don‘t know if it‘s worth investing in anti-wrinkle cream, I don‘t think there‘s enough in the world for how much we‘ll need 🤨😆 3w

marleed It‘s all so tragic. I‘ve thought of little else today. 3w

ncsufoxes Our school district (Frederick, MD) just said one of the victims was a student (she was an ice skater). 3w

ncsufoxes It‘s also disgusting to blame it on DEI as well as mental health & disabled individuals 3w

dabbe @Aims42 #amensista! 🤩😂😘 3w

dabbe @marleed It's beyond difficult to comprehend. I flew out of D.C. once, and it was terrifying going over the Potomac bridge. I can't even imagine what they went through. 😫 3w

dabbe @ncsufoxes I heard that two of them were teenagers. Beyond horrific. 😔 3w

dabbe @ncsufoxes RE: @Aims42 posted link above, Pete Buttigieg described Trump's words as “despicable.“ Agree 💯 with his word and yours. ❣️ 3w

AmyG He will blame anyone and anything. He takes responsibility for the successes only. He does not care. 3w

TheBookHippie These poor people. Their poor loved ones can‘t even grieve. Such an unnecessary loss. Cheeto satan is awful. FYI Mr BookHippie lands here often 😵‍💫 that helps the anxiety. 3w

CBee @dabbe see, I haven‘t watched the news at all - of course I knew about the crash but wasn‘t aware of what #ldf said about it. I‘m so glad I have you all here on Litsy - I think we‘ll make it through the next four years if we stick together ♥️ 3w

dabbe @TheBookHippie Next to San Diego's airport, it is one of the scariest airports to fly into our out of. Stay safe, Mr. BookHippie! 🩶🩵🩶 3w

dabbe @AmyG Well, maybe when he makes completely boneheaded moves, and the majority of us fight back, he'll back-peddle because all he wants is to be ADORED. The biggest narcissist in the universe. 3w

dabbe @CBee Agree 💯, m'dear. I need to stop reading the news and just wait to hear bits and pieces. I just can't tolerate much more than that. 🩶🩵🩶 3w

TheBookHippie @dabbe OMG SAN DIEGO no I loathe it AND THE CORONADO BRIDGE just NO !!!! 3w

dabbe @TheBookHippie To fly over or drive over? I felt trippy driving over the Mackinac Bridge, too! 😱 3w

TheBookHippie @dabbe DRIVE!! 😵‍💫 and I agree about Mackinac I‘ve done it in winter !! 3w

dabbe @TheBookHippie Holy guacamole, Batman! 😱 3w

As an English and AP Literature teacher, some of these banned books have been part of our curriculum. I love my i read banned books shirt!

I've read all three of these books several times over the years:
📚 The Awakening- this is one of my all-time favorite books!
📚 Of Mice and Men
📚 The Handmaid's Tale

And honorable mentions go to:
📚 One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
📚 all of Stephen King's books

@Dabbe

dabbe #amensista! I have a shirt that says \“I teach banned books\“, and I\'d proudly wear it on the first day I\'d introduce a book like HUCK FINN or OF MICE AND MEN. We\'ve got to keep fighting the good fight, right? P.S. Your pic is adorable. Thanks for playing and sharing! 🧡🍁🧡 5mo
