Was inspired to draw the city of Alt Coulomb from Dead Hand Rule by @maxgladstone.bsky.social 🎨 obviously will be on my end of year fav books list & the creativity of the locations is a big part of that!

I am once more in that overwhelmed and tender state of “have just finished a book by @ajdemas.bsky.social and i don’t know what to do with myself until the next one is released”. My heart is bursting at the seams yet again, her romances feel like crafted in a lab for me, like a designer drug.

Wow! 😮🤩 There's a new interactive map of Every Known Road in the Roman Empire!! 🤓 itiner-e.org We might have to have a lie-down.

Whaaa!!!

I’m so excited now that Tailhook is part of Rosmei’s line-up 👀

Fang Hao! What a good art.

I am lining up so hard for an official copy!!

I don’t know who needs to hear this but The Appoach（从万米高空降临）by larivegauche is so good, one of those very sensitively and sensibly depicted modern-day mature relationships between professional people that I tried and failed to take my time reading it. Breezed thru! #danmei

One more reason to like Chappell Roan!

Same was true for me, just did same solution; worked!

oooh. Bookmarking this! "How to turn off AI tools in Apple, Google, Microsoft, and more." Step-by-step instructions from Consumer Reports.

Always useful to remember we all feel like this sometimes. Self-doubt gets us all. And it’s our cue to take some self-care steps like a meal, hydration, some sleep, a walk outside, favorite activity etc.!

It’s not very often that I find a sequel is more enjoyable than the first book, but here it is: Thief of Night holds better than Book of Night (but arguably it’s just a big book split into two). Still not as good as Curseworkers, alas.

KPop Demon Hunters is a brilliant film, but it’s also lovely seeing its voice actors, songwriters, and singers become stars after years of struggling in the industry It’s pretty bonkers this is not a real band, and EJAE (lead vocals) hadn’t performed in a decade until this youtu.be/8y-ViyUk7Dk?...

Good morning! We are open. Just

I know these things don’t make much difference, but I just signed this - it’s going up quite quickly at the moment.

Our Licensed #baihe Works Thread:

It's a very modern tradition! Not until we got home kitchens did we do this I wrote a whole book on restaurant culture and foodways (Lost Restaurants of Napa Valley) so trust me when I tell you almost everyone ate out all the time until fairly recently.

Spent the last weekend in Florence on what I can only describe as @adapalmer.bsky.social pilgrimage, quoting incessantly from “Inventing the Renaissance” and following religiously her gelato guide. Seriously cannot recommend enough everything and everyone mentioned 💯

whole-heartedly recommend to all romance connoisseurs! 😍

I love this book so so much I want to softly press it into all my dear friends’ hands

New Announcement + Cover Reveals! ✨ THE BEAUTY'S BLADE: MEI REN JIAN (NOVEL) by Feng Ren Zuo Shu—cover art by Xiao Tong Kong (Velinxi) + interior art by Gravity Dusty! Our first #baihe ( #yuri /Girls' Love) novel is out in November—w/ 2 different covers! sevenseasentertainment.com/books/the-be...

Treat yourself!! 🔪

To read!

The cover alone!! But honestly can’t wait to read. Have never been readier to read something in such a perfect package.

A heart recommendation! I really loved Copper Script, KJC at her finest.

Last year the Japanese variety show Gaki no Tsukai had the famous singer Yoko Takahashi go undercover at a restaurant where she fooled everyone right up until she took the stage and belted out A Cruel Angel's Thesis, the intro song to Neon Genesis Evangelion. Just stunning.

Absolutely fascinating thread, up and down

reset the “It Has Been ___ Years Since the Last Completely Preventable WorldCon Scandal” clock back to zero I guess

I love this so so much!! A perfect cover for a perfect romance by AJ Demas 😍😍😍

Part 6 (out of 6) of my translation of the new Can Ci Pin extra “The Lin twins from a parallel world come to visit” is now up at the above link. If I’ve understood things correctly, Priest just decided that the work that will survive all of us and be remembered into the far future is Minions. #残次品

In notepad. In fucking NOTEPAD. Sir you are a glorified clipboard

It is one of life's little ironies that the men of the internet see a romance author and think "they couldn't know anything about the law" when like 50% of romance authors are INEXPLICABLY LAWYERS

@kjcharleswriter.com ’s latest, Copper Script, is a fucking delight, and you absolutely want to be reading it. (If you love Unnatural Vices but love the later KJC circa Doomsday and Death in the Spires even more🔥) www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

“lesbians want biological women-only spaces!!” false lesbians want queer liberation, the separation of our human identity from our baby-making capacity, and one new coffee house for every gay bar the boys get with lots of power outlets, sad indie music on vinyl, and good breakfast sandwiches

I am mournfully staring into the middle distance. What happens now that I have inhaled the entire back catalogue of @ajdemas.bsky.social’s wonderful romances in the span of a couple of weeks? W I T H D R A W A L

praying for the day priest writes a baihe, i want that unhinged, emotionally unavailable sunshine freak energy in a wlw LI lu bixing, but a girl, what then? i would perish.

The older I get the more value I see reading history instead of news. This interview with @adapalmer.bsky.social was fascinating for all the times she said "this problem has recurred over and over in human history", for many things that are presented as Brand New Issues.
