Love this from Guillermo del Toro

I got to pet a cute pomeranian at work today and he licked my hand, so my night is definitely made 💖

First finished read of 2026! 🍀"This Gilded Abyss" by Rebecca Thorne🍀 It started a little slow but once we were on the Luminosity I was locked in and ready to go. Where's the next book, Rebeccaaaaa??? *grabby hands* Gimmeeeeee plsssssss 👀🖐🏻 #booksky #readingupdate #thisgildedabyss

Saw a Frenchie with a cute wiggly butt today, so that definitely made my day a little bit better. 💖

Also, here are my Top 10 books of 2025 🎇 #booksky

Almost forgot I had this account, oops. 🙈 Anyway, happy new year!! So excited to finally leave 2025 behind because it really was a trash fire of a year. 🔥🎇 2026 can only get better and it fucking will!! It will!!

"This is how you do it. You don't do it the way that Donald Trump does it. You don't send in an invading army into cities to make it better. You work within the city to make it better."

This year I resolve to hate GenAI with even more vitriol than last year.

every big AI pitch is like “what if we took away your means of survival and devalued all your skills to make stonks go up temporarily? You’d like that wouldn’t you?”

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Greta Thunberg has arrived in Greece following her deportation from Israel, after the Gaza aid flotilla was intercepted #GlobalSumudFlotilla She said: “I could talk for a very,very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me, but that is not the story.” #Athens airport

well that’s fucking horrible

“The scheme provides unconditional, regular payments to eligible artists and creative workers, allowing them to focus on their practice without the pressure of commercial viability.” “A cost-benefit analysis by Alma Economics found that for every €1 invested, society receives €1.39 in return.”

i just think pouring money into a hole of promises that has never shown returns in any way should maybe come with consequences! not more money to throw into a new hole. but what do i know

Happy Bisexual Visibility Month 🩷💜💙

fall

Iconic moment at the Downton Abbey premiere

🍂"Days at the Morisaki Bookshop" by Satoshi Yagisawa🍂 I listened to the audiobook of this which was delightful. The atmosphere was so wonderfully bookish and perfect for the fall, so I'm really glad I decided to put this on my Fall TBR. 💪🏻 #booksky #daysatthemorisakibookshop

uh

✨️"Piranesi" by Susanna Clarke✨️ I went into this fully expecting to love it as much as everyone recommending it did, but unfortunately, it fell completely flat for me. The mystery was interesting, but sadly I was very bored most of the time. 🥹 This one just wasn't for me. #booksky #piranesi

Absolute madness, and basically destroys the international zine and records and indie comics mail order ecosystem in one fell swoop Not at the top of our country's current atrocities and crimes, but god this is fucking stupid and shortsided

one thing my fantasy books will never be is historically accurate. when were indoor plumbing and en suite bathrooms invented? that's none of my business. my mc in this spanish renaissance-inspired fantasy world has a toilet. they have magic and toilets. the toilets are the real magic.

i drew my little duck night-light last night and forgot about it until this mornin lol

Btw, my 🍂Fall TBR🍂 is out 👻 #booksky #booktok #falltbr vm.tiktok.com/ZNd4pN4gh/

Re-upping this again, please spread far and wide:

BREAKING: Big moment as CDC staff stage a mass walkout. They have lined the street outside its HQ to greet and salute the four top officials who have resigned in protest at RFK Jr’s attack on the agency’s science base. (🎥 AP)

Legolas and Gimli - infatuated [ #art | #lotr ]

they keep changing size but whats really inportant is one big one small

again say fuck you to the people you hate by supporting the folks they want to see dead ffs it’s not that hard.

I never thought I would see this in my life, and that they’re making it immediately generic so it’s affordable is making me want to cry

same for artists. no artist is burnt out because their workload would be less with AI or their project managing software could be assisted by AI. we’re burnt out because our work is not respected enough. what we do is seen as disposable and replaceable, rather than valuable.

The Botanists Had a lot of fun making this one

✨️"Mockingjay" by Suzanne Collins✨️ And thus ends my re-read of all the Hunger Games books. Amazing as always, and it squeezed several tears out of me in the end once again. 🥹 #booksky #mockingjay

✨️"Make the Season Bright" by Ashley Herring Blake✨️ I know it's not the right season yet, but I saw it at the library and thought it looked cute, so I checked it out anyway. 👻 It was fun, I enjoyed it, but the way the two talked during sex took me out of the story. 😅 #booksky #maketheseasonbright

✨️"Project Hail Mary" by Andy Weir✨️ When I heard the trailer for the movie is out and spoils some things I was like "TIME TO FINALLY READ THE BOOK" and omg, Ryland and Rocky are everything to me, their interactions, their relationship, I love them so much. 😭👌🏻💖💯 #booktok #projecthailmary

My Neighbor Demon-Tiger

"Well i dont care for porn so porn bans dont affect me" i dont know how to tell you this but they consider two women holding hands pornography

Imagine a weapons manufacturer advertising a gun with hi tech AI tracking bullets and the small print says "might shoot you IDK"

✨️"The Lamplighters" by Emma Stonex✨️ Nice moody atmosphere, a good mystery, and an interesting plot structure. I liked the jump between the past and the present and how gradually the mystery was unraveled through that. I enjoyed it. #booksky #thelamplighters

we do not have to engage with this idea in good faith, it's ableist and a shallow excuse for stealing. anyone can enjoy art, but when you give these people a paper and pencil they reject it. they want to skip to the praise and accolades they see artists receive, that's the whole thing. just childish

"to get anywhere as an artist you need to make instagram reels" "you need to draw memes" "you need to go to conventions" wrong wrong wrong you just need to be insane

✨️"The Only Good Indians" by Stephen Graham Jones✨️ I enjoyed how real the characters felt and how authentic their relationships came across. The book built good tension but sometimes dragged it out a bit too much for my personal taste, broke the suspense sometimes. #booksky #theonlygoodindians
