claustrophobia is so stupid. let Santa get married.

Enjoyable if basic mystery I got from Amazon's First Reads program. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ #Booksky

I miss the days of Christian propaganda when they actually tried. BEN HUR, THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST, DEBBIE DOES JERUSALEM, those films were high concept, high production. Now we get shit like DAVID and FIREPROOF. It's far too easy to be an atheist these days. I wanna work to not believe!

Stop what you’re doing and go read N.K. Jemisin’s short story Emergency Skin. It is SOOOO good you will not be disappointed. #booksky #blackbooksky

masturbate to teach yourself that everything hard softens eventually if you lack the required equipment for this metaphor I'm sure someone will gladly let you borrow one smooches

It is *maddening* to see this.

@cobb.bsky.social How you been, brother?

i write the best reviews

Psst, this is important

Richard Chizmar is using Stephen King to print money and y'all just eat it up. Numerous authors have come forward about not being paid, not to mention the ones suffering in silence, collectors have waited over a decade for books, but that doesn't matter as long as you get your Kind fanfiction.

Thank fuck neanderthals had ChatGPT or we never would've evolved 🙏😭

I’m still owed the settlement money for the book of mine Open AI plagiarized — the book I wrote while raising two babies

I'm beyond tired of performative politics and like-farming. No one actually wants to do anything. They all want to be right and grow their audience, even when they're wrong and have thousands of followers.

Life is hard enough as a creative without this kinda shit. Wishing the No le family the best. Please help if you can.

Since no one seems to care about fiction (you and me, we're no one) I shall begin my trek into nonfiction with: NO ONE LIKES A NIHILIST Coming soon to a health food store near you!

I feel like one of the most underrated explanations for what's happening right now in global politics is that almost everyone has lost their minds.

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste

Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

Day 4 of our Buy Direct sale - and it's a 2-for-1 special! Today, and all week: buy HUMMINGBIRD from our ebook store... and get the sequel, TO COVENTRY, completely free! Support small presses. You know you want to 🦇📚

Where's my troll at? I need to chat with you. Don't use any slurs because the algorithm will bury your comment like it does on YouTube, then I have to find your comment and approve it and you know I'm lazy. Just wave or some shit. I need a favor. If you are not my troll, ignore this!

@sdharrison.bsky.social hey stranger how hangs the hammer?

@kmraney.bsky.social nice profile pic! Don't think I ever seen you before today.

Anybody read this? What did you think? #booksky #horror amzn.to/4qPq4P5

If I were to gargle balls, yours would be first in my list, boo. Thank you for or being you, and keep doing what you do 🫂❤️

A healthcare executive faints. A president freezes like a deer in headlights. The health secretary makes a mad dash for the nearest exit. And a television doctor steps in to save the day. This is peak satire. THE SIMPSONS has nothing on this administration. Well, aside from not starving people...

This is exactly what an AI would say...

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

The class struggle and the WHAT!? 😭🤣🍑🍑🍑 youtube.com/shorts/lOpoM...

WHEN THE WOLF COMES HOME by Nat Cassidy has the best content warning I've seen lol #booksky #amreading

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Day 5! 8,544 words! #NaNoWriMo2025 youtube.com/shorts/OOMdO...

My most anticipated reads from female authors in no particular order, although I'll probably be reading the Enriquez first: TOAD, Katherine Dunn A SUNNY PLACE FOR SHADY PEOPLE, Mariana Enriquez WHITE HORSE, Erika T Wurth SING HER DOWN, Ivy Pochoda

My most anticipated reads from male authors in no particular order, although I'll probably be reading the Cassidy first: HIDDEN PICTURE, Jason Rekulak WHEN THE WOLF COMES HOME, Nat Cassidy QUEEN ESTHER, John Irving TOM'S CROSSING, Mark Z. Danielewski

Day 3 done! 4,845 words. Not quite the goal of 5,001 words, but I'm exhausted and tomorrow is another day. #nanowrimo2025 youtube.com/shorts/jPG97...

I devoured the modern-day-dark-fantasy-horror-epic that is KING SORROW and must now find something short to read while I digest this behemoth. *TOM'S CROSSING glares from its place of rest, un-purchased on Amazon* #booksky #booktok #booktube

Unfortunately, my story in this anthology has only become more relevant with SNAP cuts. If you feel incandescent with rage about ghouls denying people food, "The Debtor's Sandwich" is a story for you. Snag a copy of this book and donate to your local food bank: www.sleyhouse.com/product-page...
