logging on during library week to tell y’all that i love the library

i finished my first knitted sweater and now i can start a new project and there’s so much possibility i’m teeming with creative energy

i completely forgot about this app

i realize i need more crafty friends like i love crochet and knit and i need friends i can thoroughly talk about those interests with

the urge to start a new book vs. the need to finish the ones i’m still in the middle of

idk if it’s just this book or if i can’t stand YA that’s not fantasy or mystery

going to london this summer to see beyonce and some dear friends and honestly i need something to look forward to so yay!

the grip that issa rae and omar epps have on nyt crossword writers

it is such a jumpscare when a youtuber i casually watch mentions ry and sjm like is no place sacred

is anyone else just extremely fatigued by social media and all the different platforms rn?

i have a confession that i fear people would be mad at me for

y’all will not see me in an airplane anytime soon

The current state of the world is just so disgusting. I can’t even fully enjoy my hobbies without my mind wandering off, and completely disassociating.

i am once again humbled by the overwhelming feeling of not having enough time. not the “biological clock” sort of time but the “i have 5 books im itching to read, 3 audiobooks i need to listen to before they’re due, and i still want to listen to the aoty noms before sunday” kind of lack of time

Well, we knew they would blame the plane crash on DEI, and Trump's sycophants will just nod their heads even though it is a nonsensical claim. I don't know how Republicans live with themselves. I really don't. And frankly, most of those Democrats, too, as they put up no resistance.

sorry i don't think there are "good reasons" to use chatgpt and i think less of people when i find out they use it, this is not a flexible opinion

the blackpink girls collecting part filipino men left and right

my anxiety is at all time highs and it’s really no fun

One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them. Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is. Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙

The Death of the Author shouldn’t be interpreted that way anyway. In the theory, separating the art from the artist is largely about the artist’s opinion of their own work and how that should have no bearing on your personal analysis thereof.

it’s crazy to me when people say “separate the art from the artist” when talking about (problematic) authors bc i seem to remember every english teacher making us read the author’s background/bio before their work to get a sense of their context and how it influences their work #booksky

the ig algo is so wretched

Commit the sin of empathy.

Okay, I’m hoping this will gain some traction on Bluesky *inhales* SALEM PUBLIC LIBRARY IN OREGON IS IN DANGER OF CLOSING. This sets a dangerous precedent for state capital libraries!! This is a continuation of the saga from last year, when we were saved at the last second by the then-mayor. (1/2)

i, a non romance reader, having a romance (?) book be the first one i finish in 2025 wasn’t really on my bingo card if i’m being honest #booksky

okay eeveelution!

does anyone have some good news? i would like to hear some good news today

okay need @bsky.app to add a bookmark feature because this is advice i want to remember and come back to frequently

#booksky “we listen and we don’t judge” i never mark when i start reading books on storygraph because the amount of books i start and don’t/forget to finish would have people questioning if i actually enjoy reading 🥲

a part of me perishes every time i see a beloved mutual mention mariana zapata positively

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

i thought i would lower my screen time with deleting tiktok but then i discovered the magazines on my libby

judging on ig today i didn’t know y’all read that series…

The mainstream media is already normalizing Donald Trump. I won't, and neither should you. This is why legacy media is dying.

I’m know we live in a bubble online but if irl people are trying to make excuses about Tesla man saying “ohh he’s autistic”, “it’s fine he was just whacked out on K” or “ it’s just a Roman salute”. SHAME THEM, Shame them to the point they crawl back into their holes.

I’m gonna be honest I will throw a party or order a nice meal when a lot of these people die

Today, honor a King, not a Felon. #mlkday2025

in a persisting reading slump 💔 someone please recommend me something fast paced and interesting to read #booksky

i’ll come back to tiktok when they stop being uwu for trump in every statement

Hey just a reminder that “trump’s efforts” are also why we are in this mess… he called for the ban in 2020 because he got his lil feelings hurt

tiktok riding trump’s dick has allowed me to accept the ban… rip tiktok you can stay away if saving you means praising him on high at every turn

Never forget.

quiet morning without the paper (tiktok)

Don't let Donald Trump extending the TikTok ban distract you from the fact that his Administration is about to conduct mass deportations across America in a matter of days.

i was so busy today i didn’t get to doomscroll tiktok one last time 💔

now ig took away the squares? yeah i’m out
