The American right does not defend slavery because progressives say it was bad. They defend slavery because racial hierarchy has been an important and increasingly explicit component of their ideology for 70 years. Read a fucking book.

I'm back with another post about books with great relationships for readers who don't love love in books. Happy Valentine's Day! #bookblogger #booksky #books

I got asked about silver and since it's a special interest and part of my job, I figured I would share some of that information. .925 sterling means that 92.5 percent of the silver is silver, with the rest being other metals to make it sturdy. Fine silver is .999 but SUPER SOFT.

She means "white."

Roses are red And tulips are nice Want to celebrate love? Then abolish ICE.

Is it cynical of me that my first thought is "if this was the platform she ran on that long ago, how much did she already know?"

It's Valentine's Day. Have some short queer horror: 🐙 homoerotic rivals vs eldritch terror in a tiny house 👻 Gothic horror detective, tragic lesbians and a second person POV letter to the villain Did I mention the MCs are trans? Get em PWYW: ko-fi.com/A0307Q3/shop payhip.com/ALittleBitof... 📚💙📣

I hope everyone’s coffee is strong asf today

Roses are red And I guess love is nice But I’ll feel much better When we get rid of ICE

Get her what she really wants this Valentine’s Day 💕

It's my birthday, hurrah! For my birthday I'd really love as many shares on this post as we can make happen! Hi, I'm AK, and I write exceedingly queer books! Feel free to ask me about them! ravenswordpress.com

PERFECT! 😂

My latest attempt at #Portrait #photography for #BirdOfTheDay today is of a Black #Swan. Could also be called the red-eyed 🦢, right?! Seen on a park lake in Bonn 🇩🇪 #BirdsSeenIn2026 #birds #photographer #nature #naturephotography #EastCoastKin #waterfowl #wildlifephotography #black

I’m not really sure I do “forbidden” in that way, but I definitely have a couple in The Nexus who hide their relationship for reasons… but those are spoiler reasons, so… 🤐 #QueerPrompts #WritingCommunity

In just a few moments, I will vote against the so-called SAVE America Act and I am a strong no. That's because this bill would place unnecessary burdens on millions of women and eligible citizens to register to vote and make their voices heard. It is un-American & undermines our democracy.

Someone told me lately "Bluesky is just like Twitter." I argued that was untrue on the basis that last time I had a Twitter account most times I got a new follower their bio said "single & looking for fun" & here when I get a new follower it tends to say something like "professor of rare moths".

I’ve seen people describe Bondi’s behavior as “crashing out” or being scared and anxious. I once again beg people not to attribute to psychopaths an internal emotional world they themselves possess. Bondi is PERFORMING. Her entire appearance was scripted and with notes. She has an audience of one.

NOT A LIFT, BUT, #WritingCommunity, This is the SINGLE MOST Important post that I believe should be posted EVERY DAY by every author so teachers and readers shop here first. IMHO steal and repost!

The first of two in a row, don't forget!

I once very proudly told someone that I had finished 2000 words that day (and they were Good words!) This person was smugly confused, "That took you *all day*? I thought you could type faster than that?" And I thought it'd be harder to throw someone through a plate glass window, but here we are.

There are many things to slam Pam Bondi with, but this misogynistic trash? Not it. Do better.

Fun fact: writers don't 'finish' books, we just eventually stop editing before we spiral into madness. #booksky

I agree with what he's saying here, but I think this comic is a bad illustration for it, because the guy had to ask for his order THREE TIMES while the barista kept trying to convince him to order something else. That's not too much choice, that really is blocking him from what he wants.
