I don’t care what people are reading if they’re reading. There’s way bigger problems in the world than adults READING books written at elementary level. #booksky

Re-reading stories from Batman’s year one in part prep for my superhero class, and impressed how much time Batman spends thinking about safe places to park his car…

I don’t know who needs to hear this but listening to an audio book absolutely counts as “reading” a book. In fact, I’d argue that listening to an author read their own work aloud is an exceptionally magical and even holy experience. I love it so much. Especially as my eyesight gets worse.

FRIEND WHO I HAVEN'T SEEN IN A WHILE: your kid's gotten so big! what is he, four? ME: i have no idea what he's for

Let's just stop with the "I deeply regrets" when you're caught in the Epstein files. You only regret that you got caught. We're not stupid, you perverts.

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family. “He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

Ha ha ha

Bookstagram is an amazing place where someone will say they are posting about the "unheralded," "underrated" books they wish to boost, and then the first book they talk about will literally be a Booker Prize winner

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

“But I didn’t understand a word he said.” Guess what, that’s the experience of many immigrants when they arrive in a new country, including the United States. You get humbled. Then you work hard and start understanding. We could all use that experience

Is it me or has Bluesky on desktop gotten really, REALLY slow and laggy of late?

finally found a winter Olympic sport that i would totally fucking dominate

Writing Tip: Entertain the idea that your work needs improvement, but don't let that consume you. Don't get down in the dumps and assume that it's unsalvageable. Because nothing is unsalvageable. Anything can be improved. It just takes time and effort. #writing #writingtips #Booksky

I've just seen the word "unalive" used earnestly in a non-fiction book that is specifically written to deconstruct harmful tropes built in to modern romance novels. Girl you explicitly talked about sexual violence not 20 pages ago what the fuck do you MEAN "unalive"?!?!?!?

"Yo we heard you like data breaches, so we did a data breach about your data breach..."

Jeff Bezos looks as though he is never more than 3 seconds away from taking out a chunk of Kryptonite and saying “MWA HA HA YOU’RE TOO LATE SUPERMAN!!”

If the pigeons just decided to go ham one day we’d be so cooked

“Jesus is not owned by one political party” say that

Republicans in Congress get very brave after they announce their retirement.

the federal government is arresting journalists not only without a warrant but after being explicitly denied a warrant i wonder what our freedom of speech warriors like Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss have to say about this

Trump's name appears in the Epstein files A LOT. He is very much implied. Now it's time to demand accountability. Trump was always there, he participated in the heinous acts and he's lied about it. MAGA, your leader is no Christian. He is the very evil you pray to be protected from.

No arrests of the ICE thugs who murdered Alex Pretti, Renee Good, or Keith Porter. No arrests of anyone in the Epstein Files. But they arrested Don Lemon because of his journalism.

Let you cook. Don't let anyone else cook you.

The nurses are pissed

Every Sherlock Holmes continuation is about him being a child, him being old, him facing the Nazis, him facing aliens/eldritch horrors or him facing a story/legend that was contemporary to him (e.g. Jack the Ripper, Arsene Lupin, etc.)

RIP Bob Kane you would have loved genAI

sometimes i'm writing my criminally sickening levels of fluffy shit and i think "is this too much? like this is so far removed from canon. none of this is accurate. would they ever say/do any of this?" and then i remember that these are my cakes & i can bake and decorate them however i want. 🙂‍↕️🎂

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

ME: so is lizard short for elizabethard or elizardbeth ZOOKEEPER: no flirting with the lizard sir

It's 10 A.M. Do you know where The Epstein Files are?

Spiraling into law. The spiral staircase in the American Room in Osgoode Hall, probably the nicest library room in the city. #Toronto #EastCoastKing #Architecture #BlueSkyArtShow #OsgoodeHall #TOhistory #AlphabetChallenge #WeekBforBooks #library

Thanks for the advance notice. It’s always appreciated.

Every day in New York so far this year I wake up a headline like “Mayor Zohran Mamdani Announces Repairs to City’s McDonald’s Ice Cream Machines”

That first shower after a haircut hits different 😚

Telling a comic writer your story idea is the best way to ensure it will NEVER HAPPEN.

Yeah just give your NI number to some rando on Amazon. What could possibly go wrong?

Young boy reading book in a ruined bookshop in London devastated by an air raid - 1940

Having to be constantly the bigger person is how we partially ended up in this political situation imo

Good morning, kids. Be safe out there. 🥰
