I love reading, but not novels. If I’m craving fiction I got movies and video games. So like I need to know if I’m alone here? Does anyone else predominantly read nonfiction? Can anyone please recommend their favorite (scholarly sound) nonfiction books??

Devastated to learn that Clavicular is not, in fact, the name of @alexiscardoza.com 's next podcasting series or of his underground wrestling persona. Please allow me space to grieve 🙏🙏🙏

This image is a graphic encouraging votes for Plan C to win a Webby Award. It features a phone displaying a webpage about pills by mail, with voting and ranking details showing "2nd Place." The message urges viewers to vote by April 16 to help them achieve first place. The background is light purple, and there is a "WE'RE IN 2ND PLACE" badge next to the phone.

The Webby Awards are the leading international honors for excellence on the internet, and Plan C is currently in 2nd place for the Activism category! Can you take 2 minutes to vote for us and bump us up to 1st place? Deadline is April 16 at midnight. Link in bio or head to: plancpills.org/webbys.

Same here. And if you remembered to write it down, you're guaranteed to put something on top of that note within 10 minutes and whoops, there goes that thought 🫠

And they always have good discounts!

I've been holding back on watching because I know it's going to become my entire personality for MONTHS. Ronin Warriors was my anime intro as well and they hold a very special place in my heart ❤️

Hey voice actors and artists, you may wanna start deleting your tiktoks if you haven’t started already. They opted every video into AI remixing bullshit.

BREAKING: A jury has found Live Nation and Ticketmaster to be an illegal monopoly that overcharges fans.

After the federal government settled the case, 34 states kept pursuing the giant ticket and concert company.

Now, the states have won.

the fact that legislators are trying to say that computers are devices that require id verification and tracking to use should put fear into EVERYONE. FIGHT AGAINST THIS.

Electoral College cartogram showing which states are in the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact and which ones could join in time for it to activate by 2028. Each state is sized and labeled according to its number of electoral votes. The states are spaced out enough to accommodate the changes in size but retain their general shapes and relative positions on the map. Current members are in solid orange, potential members are in light green, and nonmembers that are unlikely to join are in medium gray. Members have 222 electoral votes, potential states have 68, and the unlikely states have 248. The compact would only activate once states with at least 270 electoral votes have joined. The seven potential members and their electoral vote are Alaska (3), Arizona (11), Michigan (15), Nevada (6), New Hampshire (4), Pennsylvania (19), and Wisconsin (10). Democrats would need to gain the governor's office and/or legislative chambers to win unified power in these states, as detailed in the spreadsheet linked in this post.

NEW: Virginia just passed a law to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, giving it 222 of 270 electoral votes needed to activate.

This map and spreadsheet show which states could join to activate it by 2028 depending on the outcome of the 2026 elections docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

LRP you don't have to cosplay to go to a con but to address another misconception, if you do, you DON'T have to get your picture taken!

WPACS also is based on phootshoots but tbh if you just want to wear a costume and hang out, you are welcome 💜

Okay, Bluesky. Give me all of your Project Hail Mary Merch. Especially Rocky stickers.

Mamdani Plans to Open First City-Owned Grocery Store in East Harlem Mayor Zohran Mamdani will announce plans for a city-owned grocery store at La Marqueta, moving to deliver on a campaign pledge.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani will announce on Sunday that New York City will open a city-owned grocery store in East Harlem in Manhattan by the end of his first term, taking an early step to deliver on a key campaign pledge.

not that I don't think cosplay is fine, but there's SO MUCH MORE going on at any decent fan convention - panels and workshops and screenings and games and concerts and experiences of all kinds. But it's reduced to "somebody in outfit poses for camera in front of logo backdrop"

Has anyone done a welfare check on the Blue Footed Booby of Budapest aka Seb Gorka?

I need the clavs to be on a Legends deal or something so I can still get my fix a few times a year 😂

"The fake papers were cited in peer-reviewed literature."

This aligns with my experience #editing content. I think #copyeditors are some of the only people seeing how AI use permeates content bc few people are reading content and digging into references so closely.

Everything about this pleases me, right down to the chain on the cane ❤️

From Merriam-Webster: Merriam-Webster Definition spandex Did you know? Example! • Did you know? Spandex is a fiber that has had an impact on fashion high and low, casual and formal, outer and under. It's not a trademark, as a number of the names of other fibers are, among them Dacron, Lycra, and Orlon. It's a generic term, coined in 1959 as an anagram of the word expands. Anagrammatic coinages are not common; the only other in our dictionaries that the average person is likely to be familiar with is sideburns. Sideburns is an anagram (and synonym) of burnsides, from Ambrose E. Burnside, a Union general in the American Civil War credited with originating the fashion (in the U.S., at least) also known as side-whiskers.

Omg. Spandex is an anagram for expands.

My cosplay of Elizabeth harlander from 2025's Frankenstein. A red headed woman in a yellow bonnet and mid 1800s inspired green dress looks back at the camera. The image is refracted, shot through a prism #frankenstein #cosplay

Oh, you thought the morality police were going to stop at "porn"?

Horror fans, if you weren't already suited up to push back alongside our lewd/adult content creator friends, it's time to line up.

Games like darts, billiards, bowling and chess completely give away what's going on.

The ONLY reason to segregate these sports by sex in the first place is because men cannot emotionally handle losing to women.

The ONLY reason to lock out trans people is bigotry.

I’ve done it 😭
