Please don't accuse people in knitted hats of only wearing their supposed politics if all you're doing is posting, which is basically just another way of wearing your politics. It's a silly thing to attack people over in any case. Using fashion to signal support for ongoing acts of rebellion is good

Should go to bed but I canโt stop reading #booksky #currentread #tbr #mystery #thriller
This is an Underground Railroad style operation. This is what I mean that we should study UR history, tactics, and strategy.
Unfortunately, this is the part where I remind people that Black 10th graders get beat up by cops every day.
This is the part where I remind people about modern civil asset forfeiture, where US police steal more value from people (mostly Black) than every form of theft other than wage theft.
This game put me in a reading slump! #finalgirl #spookyseason
This book keeps popping up. Seems like I need to add it to my TBR.

Finally getting to this #booksky ๐๐
A southern gothic haunting story set in 1960s New Orleans! #booksky ๐๐ #blackhistorymonth
Oooh great picks! I absolutely loved The Tea Dragon Society
I am really enjoying this romcom #fantasy! It has enough of a plot (besides the #romance) to keep me interested, itโs fun, and spicy.
I can often get annoyed being in the main characterโs head, but not with Cinnamon. Iโm rooting for her the whole time!

The amount of posts Iโve seen in boardgame forums of people not worried about Chinese tariffs because โtheir games donโt ship directly from China,โ is just more proof that most people have no idea how anything actually works or where they get all the things they enjoy on a daily basis from.
Two books overlap on top of a multi-colored, striped comforter. One book mostly black and looks like a playing card called Alice in Borderland 9. The other book mostly yellow and pink cover titled Bright Young Women. In the background thereโs a grey, white, mocha colored cat looking out at the wooded yard outside. There are stacks of books in front of the window and a cozy chair.
I may be struggling emotionally and luckily Iโve got some solid books Iโm sinking into. Also if you want a book that encourages you to feel every bit of your rage, I highly recommend Bright Young Women by Jessica Knoll. #bookworm #booksky #libraryhaul ๐๐
Like I said, I canโt stop myself from getting books from the library. My job is at the library so Iโm always like why not? ๐๐ #booksky

It's a lot. So find your people and find your inner Tank Girl.

Apparently 2025 is going to be the year of #rereads for me. Iโm giving another listen to The Broken Earth trilogy AND reacquainting myself with Saga before I start the newer volumes.
A white person holding a copy of Dead of Winter by Darcy Coates with a black and white dog and wood stove in the background
Hereโs a #currentread that immediately plunges you into the action. Darcy Coates is fantastic at building the tension and raising the stakes with every chapter.

Here on #Booksky, we talk a lot about Libby and digital copies of books through our public libraries. Hereโs a great little video explaining the costs these ebooks have on our libraries.

I have some thoughts on my #currentread โฆ. Iโm more than halfway and wondering where itโs going #booksky #bookworm ๐๐

A scrapbooky, zine-like image. In the top left corner thereโs a picture of a young kid in rainbow face paint waving a rainbow flag atop a woman's shoulders, as they both watch a pride parade. A photo of a group of people, young and old, carrying a pink LESBIAN & GAY PRIDE banner is seen in the bottom center. Top right, a picture of two gorgeous drag queens: one in a light pink wig and white dress decked in butterflies, and the other literally dressed as Lady Liberty in a rainbow toga. Text throughout, in mismatched fonts and on torn paper, reads "Q: So, what is QLL? a: Queer Liberation Library is an ONLINE DIGITAL LIBRARY โฆthat is by and for the LGBTQIA+ community and our allies, focusing on queer materials and queer perspectives.โ
Wow, hi new followers, hey! Weโre Queer Liberation Library.
