But yeah. Don’t miss this book when it comes out. Pre-order it ASAP. There’s even a pretty version 😍😱

Got my grubby little hands on an ARC of The Knight and the Moth and devoured it whole.

WHAT HAVE I DONE?

How can I wait over a year for the next installment of this masterpiece? (The answer is with cosplays. Planning has already begun and the brain rot has set in.)

No, you’re exactly the influence I need 🤣🦴

When you finally, finally pay off one of your credit cards and your cat says, hold my beer.

Anyway, lil dude is in for all night enemas and I am still in debt 😀

I really do hope that Bluesky succeeds in creating alternatives to Instagram and TikTok

I see authors sheepishly announcing books, or apologizing for good news.

Friends: we’re enduring an onslaught of censorship and bigotry. I am PROUD that you wrote anything. Please yell about what you're doing. Art is a fuel to keeps many of us going.

Disclaimer for my new followers: I don’t do respectability politics here. I read all kinds of things. So if u came here because I told y’all to read “Are Prisons Obsolete”, plz don’t start tussling if u also see me talking about slutty books featuring beings from outer space… because balance!! 😭 💙📚

That sounds sooo good!

I need something that makes me feel like XO, Kitty does….

Or maybe I just need to start rewatching 😭

I’ve always been a sucker for a good boarding school story.

you’re a grown adult — start acting like it!
also me while watching xo, kitty: giggling and kicking my feet 🤭🥰

Fill your cup: practice mindfulness, write in a journal, use social media thoughtfully, spend time in nature, hobbies and crafts, learn something new, get enough sleep, move your body, and spend time with loved ones.

Just a reminder to take time to fill your cup. #selfcare

Bindery Books | the ambiguously described maybe man of ... And why I'm over it.

Thanks to Onyx Storm, “Xaden is not white” is all over my timeline, so here’s this post again:

I tend to not be a muter, but probably we should all do a little more self care via muting - and I didn't know about this option!

If you need some counterprogramming today:
The Family of David Lynch invites everyone to join them in a worldwide group meditation at 12:00pm PST for 10 minutes.

Please take this time to meditate, reflect, and send positivity into the universe.

gentle reminder that books can be tools of a movement, but I encourage everyone recommending The Broposal as a political stance to also think about other ways you can help. While I appreciate the love, allyship should not start and end with reading fiction.

Some tips: 🧵

I want to make this abundantly clear: fascism headed by tech oligarchs does not have a border. Whether you’re in a blue state or another country, it’s spreading like wildfire. Their greed is limitless. Hold your community close. We need each other now more than ever.

One thing of many I've always liked about David Lynch is his refusal to play the 21st century game where people not only call upon the artist to explain their work, but feel entitled to an explanation. They want to be told what it means, and Lynch is like, no, that's not how art works.

Geordie meme. The quote he rejects is: Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government The quote he prefers is: Strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is a better basis for a system of government than this

Decided to make a pack of my favourite bookish content creators who are on here that I met from Booktok or Bookstagram!

To my nonbinary, agender, genderqueer, and otherwise off the binary friends & siblings: You are loved, you are valued, you are important to our community, you've been here longer than the tyrants, and you will still be here when their bones are dust and the names of their false gods are forgotten.

Give me the link, sir 🫴🏻

Senator Hirono ate Hegseth upppppp and so did Warren. Way to go 👌🏻

And yet for 16 months people have been in my comments with "free the hostages." It was never about the hostages. It was only ever about the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their land, as it has been since 1948.

The Washington post Breaking News Post Exclusive 8 minutes ago Police use facial recognition as it was never intended: As a shortcut to finding and arresting suspects without further evidence Confident in unproven facial recognition technology, sometimes investigators skip steps, and at least eight Americans have been wrongfully arrested, a Washington Post investigation found.

I’m sorry, this might be a great investigation, but “as it was never intended” is obscene. This is precisely how many people specifically and repeatedly told us — warned us — it would be used.

Maybe my 2025 goal will be to stop learning ANYTHING about a book beyond the blurb (and whether or not it’s problematic) before reading.

I miss book series/show where you ship a couple for a few books or seasons with no guarantee of payoff. It makes it that much better when it finally happens.

I don’t necessarily want/need every story with a romantic subplot to be like that, but it is fun to be surprised.
