I loved Adult Braces. It was the warmest, loveliest, most honest thing. I hadn’t read your other two books so now I’ve bought and read Shrill and have The Witches are Coming on hold at the library. Seems like most of us like the Lindyest version of Lindy, so just be you and we’re all good!
Sorry about the gelatin. I loved your book, and I can barely fathom how scary it is to put something that good/personal/brave/awesome into the world. I am one of so many who are glad you did! (Loved Shrill too— please keep writing, we’re going exactly NOWHERE!!)
You made us a mix tape?? That means you really like us! Take care of yourself, I know that book launch experience had to be insane. Unscented air freshener is a brilliant idea, I don’t want my car to smell like a fake pine tree but I do want something fun on my rear view mirror!
Lindy! You deserve to rest and recharge and feel your feelings! The book is beautiful and funny and profound and I’m sorry that what should have been a joyous and triumphant time got so derailed by PUBES on the Internet. I hope you are still able to feel pride in your accomplishment and I hope this experience hasn’t turned you off of being brave and vulnerable in public. You are still a horny baddie! Also your hair looks really cute here 🩷
PS - I wrote a screed defending you, and Threads killed my account for impersonating a celebrity, even though it was very clearly me. It's like they thought I was you, which was quite flattering!
Any/all of that merch would be so exciting!! Take my money!!
It’s hard to see someone we’re all in a parasocial friendship with suffering like you are in this video. I hope you remain SO proud of yourself for the book, the tour, the merchandise, and your mark on the world. Your writing is such an incredible mix of funny, raw, and well-crafted. We’re lucky to read whatever you’re willing to share.
As I end most sessions (hippy therapist sign off 🤪): Sending ALL the good vibes. Stay hydrated, eat some protein, and get good sleep. (I say this not as part of toxic diet culture but because this is how our nervous systems regulate and we start to heal.) If you’re into acupressure tapping that can be helpful, too. So can bilateral auditory stimulation. Hugs! (if you like hugs) We’re not going anywhere, so take the time you need to heal.
"A brochure tourists would get, like on the ferry"- hahaha tell me you're from Washington without telling me you're from Washington! The merch is super cute and I'm glad you finally got to enjoy!! Also happy you're feeling less gelatinous <3<3<3
The thaw will come and then it will be horny baddie summer part 2 fast 2 furious! And you can totally pull whatever off!

I care! I want to hear all about the playlist.

No writing pressure at all. Kevin Aucoin make-up tutorial pressure gently applied (like a transition blush).
I am liking this based on the display copy alone and now I actually get to read it! Thanks!
We love you too. And you can pull it off.

You are very pretty. Even in gelatin.
