I encourage everyone to read Shelley's introduction to the 1831 publication of "Frankenstein". It provides interesting insight on how the story came to be. www.gutenberg.org/files/42324/... 💙📚 ##booksky

Seems like a great idea for a company to make location sharing a thing on a social media app where women and minorities get death and rape threats. How could that possibly go wrong or get out of hand.

The 2025 longlist for The Diverse Book Awards was just announced. Take a look at the fantastic books that made the cut! @simonjamesgreen.bsky.social @saimamir.bsky.social @anikahussainwrites.bsky.social @ellemcnicoll.bsky.social 💙📚 #booksky #blacksky #childrenbooks #yabooks

Canceled my Paramount Plus, just canceled AMC Plus, and next year, HBO Max will end... When it comes to the protection of public media, we have to roll up our sleeves and do the work ourselves

"but we are in a moment of great transformation in journalism" You mean you've slashed your actual staff as much as possible and outsource writing meaning you have little editorial oversight of what's being published under your own masthead. Embarrassing.
