LAPD when they think nobody is watching

Israeli forces have reportedly boarded the Gaza Freedom Flotilla. Connection to the Madleen ship has been lost.

🚨 Israeli forces have reportedly boarded the Gaza Freedom Flotilla.
Connection to the Madleen ship has been lost.

The Madleen (AKA the Freedom Flotilla) has been intercepted by Israel. The activists onboard asked for us to make noise as their communication will go dark. Do not let the IOF get away with yet another war crime. DON’T LET THESE ACTIVISTS DISAPPEAR. DON’T LET PALESTINIANS STARVE.

Hang on I’m so sorry you’re telling me we ran through all the IP that we have no choice but to greenlight a second THE LIBRARIANS reboot???

Anyways, tell me your favorite new tv show or film that isn’t based on previous IP

TIKTOK STOP SHOWING ME MY OWN VIDEOS ON MY FYP I HATE IT I WON’T USE THE PROMOTION FEATURE I WILL JUST CLOSE THE APP AND CONTEMPLATE DELETING MY ACCOUNT OKAY THANK YOU

"What did PBS shows teach you?"

Mister Rogers taught us feelings are mentionable and manageable.

Reading Rainbow taught us discovering books is joy.

Sesame Street taught us learning through the kindness of community by way of our friends.

Bill Nye taught us to observe wonder through science.

It’s taken a turn for the worst

Every time JKR is in the news for being an absolutely hateful human being, I see more and more people speculate that a ghost writer wrote Harry Potter which, to me, just seems like another attempt to distant JKR from the series so you can feel better about promoting the books…

Screenshot of text messages between OP and her fiancé. Fiancé: Bookstock is this weekend. Fiancé: Hey Fiancé: Hey Fiancé: Hey Celine: it’s also Indie Bookstore Day on Saturday so we should go to [Local Bookshop’s] free event (smiling emoji with surrounding hearts) Fiancé: That’s love Fiancé: That’s what love is

Screenshot of texts between OP and her fiancé. Celine: (link to @Discobooks.bsky.social’s Bluesky post featuring the new Jade City, Jade War, and Jade Legacy covers.

The Jade War cover is red with a woman holding a bladed weapon overlaid with two people sparring. The Jade Legacy cover is blue with a suited person overlaid with three people on motorcycles riding down city streets. The text of the post says, “Check out the new Green Bone Saga covers, I’m obsessed! These will be the paperback covers in the US, UK & Canada from September.” Celine: birthday Fiancé: Sure

When I say I have a book boyfriend, this is what I mean 🥰

Yeah this straight up doesn’t matter. She’s still using the money she makes from the IP (including her paychecks from this show) to back anti-trans legislation…

You can be honest, did I niche down too hard with this one? 😅

okay i showed this to my partner and without missing a beat he said, “that’s diabolical” 🤣

Today’s one of those days where I wish fan edits for books were possible bc the way I NEED one for Rin and Kitay (platonic) set to the end of Reckless Driving by Lizzie McAlpine 😭

How do I stop my neighbor from throwing literal TRASH into my yard? And, more importantly, how do I get my revenge? (for legal purposes, this is a joke) 🙃

Why would ANYONE want to go viral??? My Tiktok post about Amazon only has 27K views and there are only a handful of people arguing with each other in the comments, but it has otherwise gotten overwhelmingly positive engagement. And I still feel like throwing up every time I get a notification 🙃

that’s so true. I think about Pet once a day and that’s not an exaggeration

Loved The Will of the Many! I haven’t read much VE Schwab but I’m adding that series to my list. Thank you!

LOVE Bitter!! Maybe time for a reread?? 👀

ooh yes okay I read a few pages of it last weekend but I need to officially start it because I’ve heard nothing but good things!

#Booksky, help me get out of a book slump and share the best book you’ve read so far this year!

⬇️ Drop your recs below ⬇️

Okay I think I’ve actually come around on this issue because I’m actually finding it kinda cute??? Like seeing my mutuals all interacting in each other’s comment sections is kinda adorable idk I think TT just broke me after a year of this and now I’m on the acceptance stage of this bug…

Indie Bookstore Day is today 💛 Below you can find participating bookstores in your area (cute) AND see a list of bookstore crawls by city (omg)

J.K. Rowling is a hateful human being and you will never see me promoting or engaging with her works. I won’t make her richer so she can continue to use her time and money causing harm to the trans community.

omg pleaaaaase!!!

Help I’ve learned that I’m only motivated to post on Tiktok under imminent threat of a ban… just like last time I suddenly have the energy, time, and ideas 5 days before it might go away…

I’m in the middle of this one now!!

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public
