I'm so fucking tired, and outraged and just SAD today. This is not the world I want to live in, and it's breaking my heart that there are still people around me who think this is all fine.

Reading comics counts as reading. Reading graphic novels counts as reading. Reading fan fiction counts as reading. Listening to audio books counts as reading. Reading a 10k word Tumblr treatise on Star Trek/Dr Who parallels counts as reading.

Bookish Resolutions are up on the blog! 💙📚 www.hopelessbibliophile.com/2026-my-book...

Starting off 2026 visiting with friends, buying delicious pastries, and now playing online board games with our besties who live across the U.S. I hope it's true that whatever happens today follows us into the new year, because I am IN!

still my favorite christmas post

I find it adorable that ever since they booted the serial nonsense posters off my local Nextdoor group it has now basically become a feed of older people sharing mundane things haha. On today's update: - two racoons who stole someone's bird seed - a photo of an unknown yellow bird - a homemade pie

Yo Los Angeles! LA Taco is not only the best reporting on where the most amazing food in town is hiding, they have been way out in front of everyone with their reporting on ICE and CBP thugs. This is the kind of independent, local, media we all need to support. I'm proud to be a member.

IT’S HERE!! Lookit this gorgeous ARC for my upcoming collection, I KNOW A PLACE, featuring 13 wild & terrifying rides (including the Stoker Award-nominated novella REST STOP). This looks even better than I imagined—all thanks to the genius of @shortwavebooks.bsky.social. Getcher preorders in now!

If you are also a fan of concert albums, Highlight's does NOT disappoint. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

This time of year is fucking hard. The holidays are a fertile ground for dark thoughts. Loneliness can drown you, even when you're surrounded by people. Take care of yourself. If you feel like you're drowning in darkness, please talk to someone. Friend, family, stranger. Anyone. You deserve love.

Oh. OH. It's going to be a beautiful year for horror titles. cinemachords.com/2026-horror-...

Just finished GOOD SPIRTS by B.K. Borison and friends, my heart is FULL. Like, my Christmas spirit this year was severely lacking due to well... *gestures widely* but this cured something in me. It really and truly did. 💙📚 www.harpercollins.com/products/goo...

I want a cookie so much. I do not want to make cookies. I do not want to leave my house. Dilemma.

#artvsartist #ArtVsArtist2025 i didn't actually draw that much this year haha. i was mostly writing and doing hello sunshine promo and WAITING this was definitely a year of of a lot of waiting. SO MUCH WAITING 😭

My new novel is available now in ebook and print, and soon in audiobook! 💙📚️ "Magica Riot: Full Bloom" is the next adventure of my queer Portland magical girl rock band. It's full of very lesbian needfulness, trans feelings, and big dang action setpieces. Pick up a copy! magicariot.com/fullbloom

The very real urge to sign up for a cheese club in 2026, because if it ends up like this year at least I'll have fancy cheese every quarter.

Okay gang, The Onion is 80 sign-ups away from our 60,000th print subscriber. This would put us in contention for the Top 10 most circulated newspapers in the U.S. So! We're giving our 60,000th subscriber a mystery box by our archivist as a nice lil thank you. Sign up now. I'd give it an hour.

Picked up The Keeper of Enchanted Rooms by Charlie N. Holmberg during a Libro.fm sale a while ago and hadn't gotten to it yet. As it turns out, I waited until right when I needed this wonderful book the most. I have been enjoying it IMMENSELY. 💙📚

Hey #BookSky does anyone have recs for: - AuDHD 12yo who likes Harriet Muncaster books - severely dyslexic, so needs something she'll enjoy & can read easily to keep her _liking_ reading - no graphic novels/comics, but illustrations = good - NOTHING REMOTELY SCARY This is so far out of my sphere

this is the guy who wants an AI Dead Nan

I LOVED THIS STORY SO MUCH

Tuesdays are weird because I have to be in the office (which I don't love) but all my friends are also at work (whom I do love) and so it kind of balances out haha. It's not even 9am and we're already talking about where to go for lunch.

Haven't been around here in a while because my mental health has been not so great, and that is also why I haven't blogged much. But we're on the upswing, friends, so that's a happy thing.

A little late but Gruss vom Krampus 🖤💀

A swell time will be had by all! RSVP here for the @comixaction.com event at Chinatown Soup on 12/12! cryptpad.fr/form/#/2/for...

Yup, yup I need this. 💙📚

With two villains lurking about, Claire, Sara, Cass, Hana, and Nova have to figure out a new approach to their magic and their music, with some help from unexpected friends! "Magica Riot: Full Bloom" is bigger, deeper, and gayer than the first book, and it arrives Dec. 5th* magicariot.com/fullbloom

My mental health is absolutely horrendous today, but I had to come into work. So I dragged myself out into the sunshine (it's 80 today in Los Angeles), got some takeout sushi and sat for a while in the park to eat it. All solo. Which I'm usually afraid of. I'm still feeling bad, but less bad. A win.

“The successful reinstatement of eight books originally banned from the competition isn’t about how the news spread beyond Georgia and led to the change of heart. It’s a story of how several high school students worked to raise awareness” bookriot.com/teens-who-ov...

My pretties.. my scrumptious little figgy puddings.. my scalding flames flickering atop the candles in the wall sconces of my heart.. have you pre-ordered MOTHER-EATING from ghoulish.rip yet? I'm not sure what on earth you're waiting for, if you haven't, but maybe this will help:

Anyway, while I'm waiting to be set free from the confines of work, hit me with your favorite haunted house novels BookSky! 💙📚

I'm #currentlyreading Never Flinch by Stephen King and people keep bothering me at work and I only have 44 min left, and it's almost the CLIMAX and UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH. I'm going to have to wait until my train ride home to finish them aren't I. *sigh* 💙📚
