A close up look at Lena Reid from Nocturne by @authorkarinahalle.bsky.social. The moment she mentioned it was set in 1940s, I was buzzing with film noir inspiration. Done traditionally in watercolor. #karinahalle #darkromance #booksky #vampire #watercolor

So excited for this upcoming book from @authorkarinahalle.bsky.social I love her writing and this has so many of my favorite things! #booksky 📚💙 #paranormalromance

📝: Nocturne by @authorkarinahalle.bsky.social ---------------------- Review: I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. #booksky #smutsky #horror #romance #vampire

Time for the NSFW art. Ummm. Apologies if it catches you by surprise (I’ll put it in the comments). This is from my dark western horror romance that just released called Death Valley and it has our heroine and cowboy in a rather intimate apres swim act 👀

Book 47 of 25' My Life in Shambles by @authorkarinahalle.bsky.social This review is gonna be a big one with multiple parts, so check the comments for more. This one hit me hard, in both good and bad ways. I wasn't expecting to have a personal connection... #booksky #karinahalle #multiplesclerosis

I stopped following someone on here because they had to unfollow someone who posted ONCE about politics and I’m like…you do know you’re on BlueSky, right??

"It's unfathomable to me to think that anybody would think such negative things about my family," says Tosca of allegations that Elon intended the gesture as a white supremacist signal. "That's not who we are." And yet… apple.news/AKwuQty8MSM2...

I will not be the frog who makes exceptions for scorpions who seem nice.

Poor Mars. He never asked to be roped into Elon’s bullshit. 😞

Just donated. Fanjoy is running against PP in the Carleton riding. Let’s help him win and push PP out of the picture while we can.

Loser President proudly boasts about losing his trade wars w/(former) NAFTA allies, while citing deals Biden already negotiated, as his own.

This is exactly it 😂

Trump is considering executive action to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education

My goodness. Canada is hitting back HARD with 25% tariffs on literally everything from the USA. From clothes to cosmetics to food to airplane parts—everything. Luckily we’ll be buying Canadian instead. 🇨🇦✊🏻 (And this is just part 1! What else is there?) www.canada.ca/en/departmen...

Seeing my arc for the first time on the shelf I created as manifested it coming to life ✨

AOC shares the truth

i'm tired of being told to stop doomscrolling. i'm just scrolling, it's not my fault there's doom on there

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

“Just Google it” Girl have you tried using Google lately?

We have 2 packages from Belle Book Box! I'll start with my subscription box, Before I Ever Met You and My Life in Shambles by @authorkarinahalle.bsky.social Solaire of course needed to be included 😂 #booksky #booktok #bookmail #BelleBox #karinahale

Someday you will write the book. Most people will not read it. But someone will, and it will change something inside them. Then they will write a book, wholly their own, but slightly indebted to your ideas. And so on. The chain never ends. There are echoes of you at the end of the world.

If you see this quote with a photo of a bridge from your gallery

If you’re white and thinking about boycotts and who is funding what, but you’re still in the family group chat with a bunch of racists……..start locally as they say.

Setting quotas of arrests per day. You know what happens when you have a quota to meet? Scoop them up and let the court sort it out. They will be grabbing anyone they can. No proof of citizenship on your person? Too bad. That’s an arrest. Look “illegal?” Explain it to the court someday.

Fuck em. Register to be a Liberal, folks, don’t let them win. I registered the other day for the first time ever.

My posts about Passionflix and her support for her brother (as in me sharing the SS) got “fact-checked” by Meta and said it was “missing context” —what’s the fucking context here? She literally posted her support!

I have struggled to write the first chapter of my WIP for weeks. I had it all plotted, thought I knew my characters, but writing was a slog. Which isn’t unusual for a blank page, first chapter! Still, I read it over and it just…sucked. Then I saw a post on here about the first 10 pages and…

Daily vibes

Just did this!

It actually is very important that you do things that you take pleasure in, regularly. That is part of how you survive the things that feel like they are going to destroy you.

good morning

Elon Musk's and X's Role in 2024 Election Interference, a letter from an alleged X whistleblower. "What started as US election interference has now spread to other countries. We're currently doing the same thing in Germany and other European nations." theconcernedbird.substack.com/p/elon-musks...

Mexico has declared their support and solidarity with Panama as Trump threatens to invade it. Will initiate calls with Latin American leaders, including Brazil's Lula, the largest military in the region. Marco Rubio's first call as secretary of state confirmed to be with Mexico.

Panama and Latin America to trump: Bring it on, estúpido motherfucker.

Wow. Okay now that I’ve seen Elmo’s sister proudly defending his salute while also being at the inauguration ball…I hope no authors work with Passionflix going forward. Fuck em.

I thought this was Cousin Greg at the inauguration and it completely melted my brain for a few minutes while I tried to figure out what reality was #succession

Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce. Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

Oh wow, they brought back 2020 doomscrolling. They’ll remake anything these days.

Love this teaser for Death Valley that Tatianna Reads did 🫶🏻Coming Feb 10 🤠🧟‍♀️🐎🏔️🌲🪓💀

The world needs more Luigis STAT
