"Authors and publishing don't owe us nothing."
And that's why the book suck now and authors don't know professional finesse.
You're literally the consumer. You have the most power under capitalism. I want us to bffr.
Exactly this!
Got on threads. Saw the commotion. Put the author's name on the mute list. Saw people saying they gonna be mean to the girl. And I left.
Don't got it today.
Threads book space is an echo chamber. It's tiktok in words. Don't have time for it.
Just submitted for an editorial fellowship. π€πΌ
Very nervous but excited with this pivot.
Open to hearing people's thoughts on pivoting into editing.
Now I have started this one. It releases in June. Got an early copy through Aardvark book club. I'm only a chapter in. I'm intrigued but a little hesitant. I've heard mixed reviews. I'll keep yall updated.

Me DNFing two March reads throws off my HRCYED challenge.
I will be calling the library tomorrow to circulate some books to my closest branch that will satisfy both March & December hopefully.
Started this yesterday.
Dnfed today.
Sadly, I just didn't care what was going on. I wasn't pulled in.
Another anticipated for the year being DNFed. I enjoyed Love Like a Sun but not this. π
Update. I DNFed at 25%. This is objectively a 4 or 5 π« read. Well written. The social commentary is there. But I could not with the MC. Too busy judging to pay attention. I cannot be in their mind too long. Sad because this was an anticipated read for the year. I would still recommend this book.
Remember Fort Pillow
Today we dont remember it. But it was once a rallying cry that Black Civil War troops carried with them across the battlefield.
On April 12, 1864, one of the most heinous episodes in American history occured.
General Nathan Bedford Forrest ordered the massacre of Black troops at Fort Pillow
Alright. I gotta do my own spiritual work and rest before teaching spiritual things tomorrow.
I may have small platforms but can't say there is no work is being done.

We've been talking about the current violence for months! #blacksky #astrosky
Sharing this over here on BlueSky. It's been spiritually heavy days for me as a 2head. But someone asked about what we can do spiritually for those who have transitioned due to domestic violence.
Here's what my spirits said I can share publically: #blacksky
Last night I went live to talk about the domestic violence uptick from the astrological lens.
Remember astrology is a historical tool that can really help us in times like this
Today I went on YT Live to talk about:
- the Aries stellium in relation to Eros & Jupiter.
- Leo degree & the limelight of the domestic violence that is happening
- How we can use the New Moon to balance power dynamics in these things
& more! Check it out!

This area is home to the Port Royal Experiment. This is where the concept of 40 Acres and a Mule was born. A vast swath of enslaved people lived here, and where freed people stayed.
The Gullah Geechee culture thrived in this area for well over a century
Now they're being pushed out
Speaking of emancipation and reparations, a New York Times story came out today about the fastest growing county in the country.
Jasper County, South Carolina.
In the year 2000, over half the population was Black and one of the poorest in the state.
Now it's less than a third Black
@lyszflo.bsky.social & I were talking 'bout the heightened violence against women currently, especially Black women.
We know we can't talk in depth but let's just say there is a huge strain on Jupiter in Cancer & it's showing. Does anyone see anything else concerning in the transits about this?
Sorry. Been distracted with all the Zuko stills from the Avatar movie π€£
I really do be lost on social media these days.
Like... all this going on? Lol
Is Fantasy Getting Worse? #booksky

Oh no it's worse?!?!
My goodness.
I don't remember April of last year being this stacked. π
Today's book pub day is STACKED.
And I don't just mean fiction but nonfiction as well.
Just now hearing about most of these books.
In other news, I dropped something on my YouTube. π Anybody who practices an African diasporic tradition may want to tap in!

The public school stereotypes in this movie is hilarious π
Watching Seventeen Again w/ Tia and Tamera.
Sydney (Tia) and Ashley were both mean girls in their own way.
Woke up thinking it's Friday. It's Saturday
