The cognitive dissonance of witnessing fascism in real time, trying to fight it locally, and also needing to decide what my daughter is going to have for her bento for school today is damn near driving me insane. Thank god for books and book content. Truly the only time I can take a deep breath.

Time for the annual Booktube tradition...complaining about the books I read 😊 youtu.be/vmebgpe5SXI?...

Correction, apologies! 230 pm Eastern is the time for the live!

Over consumption, Anti-intellectualism, Trope-ification, Shallow reviews....all of these have been plaguing the book community recently. What if I told you that WE are the problem? The good news is that means that WE can also fix it ✨️ youtu.be/iNDME24ia5I

Can we hit our $35k stretch goal today? www.kickstarter.com/projects/fan...

Recently, I've been seeing a lot of discourse about peoples' reading choices. Pressure to read certain things or read quickly, criticism of both engaging and not engaging critically with what you read, and do our reading choices really matter at all? What is the point of this hobby of ours? 🧵 1/5

Today we're reviewing Brigands and Breadknives, another heartwarming (if decidedly more action-packed) adventure, this time featuring a scene-stealing chaos goblin. Thanks @torbooks.bsky.social for the ARC!

Was lisening to some old Dessa yesterday & this hook seemed exceptionally pertinent: "I found your pale-faced blue-lipped God beneath the kitchen table. Starving and eating paper. He showed me what you wrote and what you'd asked. Love, nothing can live on prayers like that." - Doomtree, The Wren

I need your advice on which unread books to prioritize in Unboxing my Library pt.3 👀📚 youtu.be/lPT_vjiSPEA

Get you a partner who looks at you the way I look at the original hardcover of A Natural History of Dragons by @swantower.bsky.social 😍 5 Star Audit video coming soon!! 👀👀👀

Taking a break from doomscrolling for a few days has really helped my mental health. Finding the balance between staying informed & keeping myself sane has been,& will still remain, a challenge, but moments like this help infinitely: Tsundoku Club's November pick & Sumire frolicking in a corn maze🍂

ICYMI the big news last week, THE BOOK OF SPORES anthology is coming soon to Kickstarter!!! 🍄🍄‍🟫 Follow the KS pre-launch page HERE: www.kickstarter.com/projects/fan...

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

Amidst all the other horrors surrounding us right now, my purse chapstick has disappeared. So now I've had to move my bedside chapstick to my purse and I'm bereft at night. The world is now nothing but disarray and chaos.

WorldCon haul & the only two selfies I grabbed 😭 It was a wonderful, exhausting whirlwind. Book-wise, found some absolute gems. People-wise, Seattle was a heartwarming reminder of why the book community is amazing. More on that soon as I do have some group photos to post 👀 #worldcon2025 #booksky

On my way to Seattle Worldcon! :) Looking forward to seeing some familiar faces, and some new ones! Sound off below if you're going 👀

You ever make a mistake while making your morning caffeine that proves how much you need the caffeine? Not me putting everything but the coffee grounds themselves into my percolator and then standing there 🧍‍♀️for like 15 seconds trying to figure out what looked wrong 🫠

Having a bank manager outright refuse to accept my husband's I-551 stamp while we wait for his physical green card to arrive because "it's written not printed" is the most rage I've felt in a long time. What's the point of spending all the time, stress, & money if you’re going to be denied anyway?

Andddd just in time for an across the world move and family travel across Japan, I have a torn meniscus 🫠

Mr. Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted by the Trump Admin and, by their own admission, wrongly deported to El Salvador. He shouldn’t have to spend another second away from his family. I'm flying to El Salvador tomorrow morning to check on his condition and discuss his return.

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

Whenever I need to check the bass power of headphones I play Hozier’s Work Song and lemme tell you, these new ones check out. I can feel that delicious vibration in my bones rn.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Whether in person or online, I always have a great time hanging out with @clclark.bsky.social. If you’re an Arcane fan, then don’t miss out on Cherae’s awesome new Arcane tie-in Ambessa: Chosen of the Wolf AND her two-part interview on @sffaddictspod.bsky.social!!!
