PSA: The Zon is removing your ability to backup your kindle books! So back them up while you still can. Why would you want to back up your books? Because technically you don't OWN the books that you buy on the Zon. You're buying a LICENSE to read them, and licenses can be revoked. #booksky 1/3

I've wanted to read A Spell for Heartsickness by Alistair Reeves since it released and I finally started!💕 #booksky

The State Department website has replaced "LGBT" with "LGB"

Seems like a good time to point out that you can download from the library of congress, and it would be worthwhile to download probably as much as you can while you can

There is no LGB without the TQIA+ We stand together or we fall together. 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

It turns out I have a bunch of books with SHADOW in their title!

anxiety is a lot like entering combat in a video game, but there aren't actually any enemies around.

We're going to need a bigger Luigi.

I mean, a hearse carriage is the last place people would expect to find you cuddling with your secret(?) lover...

I find it funny that M*rk Z*ck*rb*rg had this profile picture back in 2015! Happy to know that he’s been a silently spineless liar for a whole decade and that we now know what kind of person he really is! President of the Bigoted Clown Club 😍

If Marky Zuck craves masculine energy so badly he should just go an f—k a man 😂😂😂.

A gig-economy company called YoungOnes, which supplies “freelance” retail assistants to stores, is charging gig workers 4.8% of their earnings to get paid in one minute, or 2.9% to get paid in three days. If they decline, they typically have to wait 30 days. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

I’m just $6 away from $800 on this project! I know the dream of getting 10000% funded is only for people who are already famous, but if I can get enough to print a round of these graphic novels so I can financially justify the second book, I will be happy 🥰 www.kickstarter.com/projects/lau...

Love all these places 🎉🎉 And in case you didn't know, Hoopla and Libby are apps that work through your local library, enabling you to check out audiobooks and ebooks. The QLL is available through Libby, and in the case of Hoopla you can get magazines, movies, documentaries, and music too.

Spent the day sick in bed, but at least I had a good book. Picked this up on a whim because I guess I’m in my gay romantasy era (is that what this would be considered?) A delightful read. Hurt and comfort in equal supply & an engaging plot. (Sad I missed out on the RC edition, look how pretty)

PSA 🚫 We can’t be friends if you’re still hooked on Harry Potter. I don’t care how warm and fuzzy the boy wizard’s story makes you feel because it’s such a big part of your childhood.

"What has JKR done besides have an opinion." How about lobbying the Labour Party to adapt her transphobic ways. How about lobbying the Scottish government to adopt more anti-trans laws on the books? A 5 minute google search could have told you that.

Pretty much 😂
