Singout Will do when I recover from this darn cold. Maybe a shot (I don‘t think so) or upping the masking again (more likely) would have prevented it. 4d

Alexander Hamilton | Ron Chernow

Got my Tee Rico hoodie today. I‘ve been experiencing conflicting feelings about #Ham4PR because while I do believe that LMM and the Flamboyan and Hispanic foundations he and his father have founded will do much to benefit the island, I see the critiques by people whose day to day lives are directly impacted by the presence of #Hamilton in PR, and it‘s not all good. Will continue to read and consider and hope. #RiseUp #MyShot #PuertoRicoStrong

abbielistenstobooks I also have troubles with LMM in PR. I love the show, but I've learned a lot about how problematic the show's presence in PR has been, and how he has not advocated well for the island. But... I love the show. 7y

kgriffith @abbielistenstobooks Yep. Are you on Twitter? Prof Yarimar Bonilla is a resource I‘ve come to trust over more than a year of her reporting during visits to the island, conferences, etc. 7y

abbielistenstobooks I... am, but I almost never go there unless there's some sort of event happening and I want to check in on first person reports. My FB friend Keila is from Puerto Rico, and she's got me following several people. I haven't heard of that person, but I'll go follow on Twitter! Thanks! 7y

The Rough Guide to Classic Novels | Simon Mason

I flipped through the "Making It" section of the tagged book, looking for inspiration for #MyShot when I stumbled upon the side bar about Balzac. I quickly recalled his coffee addiction, he was definitely not throwing away his (espresso) shot! The Giamatti New Yorker skit is hilarious & definitely worth watching if you have Prime.

Adnan's Story: The Search for Truth and Justice After Serial | Rabia Chaudry

pick

Rabia must have thought this book was #myshot at getting Adnan‘s full story out to the public (well, in addition to her blog, twitter feed, and podcast!). And she did a great job of communicating the many details of this case and the doubt that pervades Adnan‘a accusation. I found the post-serial information the most fascinating, as I have already listened to the podcast. And I gotta say, Rabia convinced me of Adnan‘s innocence!

Cinfhen, vivastory

emilyhaldi I just wish we had more answers 🙏🏻 and hope someday we will. But ultimately, there are too many things that don‘t add up here and too much reasonable doubt to convict Adnan. I hope his upcoming appeal trial gets to the bottom of some of the judicial injustice. #musicalnewyear 7y

Cinfhen I‘m not 100% convinced he׳s innocent but he definitely needs a new trial and I feel like all the time spent behind bars, 20 years should be considered time served (edited) 7y

emilyhaldi Whoops! Forgot to tag #booked2019 #relatedtoapodcast 7y

Reviewsbylola As I said before, I didn‘t listen to Serial, but I am def convinced there is enough reasonable doubt. 7y

alisiakae I listened to Serial but haven‘t read this yet. I‘m in agreement with everyone else that he needs a new trial. 7y

L_auren Kind of think he‘s guilty and even so, he should NEVER have been convicted. We can‘t put people behind bars on so little 😭 7y

Shot in the Heart | Mikal Gilmore

Written by the brother of infamous killer Gary Gilmore (the focus of Norman Mailer‘s book The Executioner‘s Song, currently on my TBR), I read this over twelve years ago when a college professor recommended it to me.

I have it three stars and I‘m wondering why. I fully intend an audio reread in the near future. #musicalnewyear #myshot

emilyhaldi Sounds fascinating! 7y

Cinfhen Sounds like a heavy read!! I‘ll be curious to hear your thoughts. 7y

vivastory Sounds really interesting 7y

GingerAntics Oh my god I love him!!! 7y

MicheleinPhilly Good for him! Everyone‘s obsession with recording everything so they can share it on social media is maddening. And I‘ve definitely filmed bits of concerts and posted them but this whole phenomenon of watching what‘s going on right in front of you THROUGH your phone is just 🙄. 7y

kspenmoll @MicheleinPhilly For me it takes away from the real sensory experience! 7y

Cinfhen So true @MicheleinPhilly you miss so much when your focus is on trying to capture something instead of just enjoying the something 🙄 7y

vivastory I 💯 agree with you @MicheleinPhilly 7y

GlassAsDiamonds Drives me crazy - I‘ve called out people in cinemas doing this. Used to work in IP & it‘s theft of a luxury product, there‘s no justification (clearly the 15second SM bites aren‘t the same ball park, I primarily mean pure piracy of the whole content). Love LMM!!! ♥️ (edited) 7y

Hamilton: The Revolution | Lin-Manuel Miranda

Hamilton is a musical that has been an inspiration to me ever since I first heard Lin perform it at the White House many years ago. I listen to the music when I need inspiration or when I'm frustrated. I even named my cat Hamilton. I highly recommend the tagged book about the creation of the musical. #catsoflitsy #MusicalNewYear #MyShot @Cinfhen @vivastory

Leftcoastzen Cute Hamilton!😻 7y

litenthusiast @Leftcoastzen Thanks! 💗 7y

Cinfhen So sweet and what a great name 😻I agree, the music is inspiring!!! 7y

vivastory Great post. Perfect cat name! 7y

Crazeedi Hamilton is a sweet fur baby!❤️❤️ 7y
