Sounds like a plan

"When was the last time you said 'thank you,' Mr. Penguin?"

Yes, Trump's tariffs will hurt US consumers in the short term, but, you should focus on the long term, where it will also hurt them.

Some great railway staff asked about my placard and wished us luck! #DoTheWriteThing @societyofauthors.bsky.social

In the middle of all this we're still reading books, which is more than okay. We need books now more than ever. #BookSky

A big thank you to all the amazing children’s authors and illustrators who have helped my own children become book dragons. (And a special shoutout to some of my fave northerners @gabriellekent.bsky.social, @dansmithauthor.bsky.social and @chris-callghan.com) #InternationalChildrensBookDay

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Dear Bluesky. I wonder if you can help? I have 100 copies of this book, each of which I'm happy to send to anyone in the UK for £4 postage, plus a donation of your choice (however low). Please drop me an email with your address at [email protected] if you'd like one. P.S. I promise it's not shit...

Teen Warned Not To Accept Group Chat Invites From National Security Advisors She Doesn’t Know

Not so grim up North ❤️ #WednesdayWalk

Had some authors asking whether it's worth registering for @alcs.co.uk - YESSSSSSSS. You get little payments for so many uses of your work eg photocopying, secondhand purchases via World of Books, audiovisual fees - & all those payments add up.

Want to know who’s behind book bans and how decisions are really made? One of the most powerful tools we have is the public records request—and we’re here to show you exactly how to use it.

The Numbers Don’t Lie: In just three years, instances of book bans have quadrupled. Censorship is accelerating at an alarming rate, silencing diverse voices and limiting access to critical stories. We must act NOW to protect the freedom to read! #FightBookBans #LetBooksBeBooks #FreedomToRead

Epic idea

if i lived in the 1800s and making dinner meant spending every waking hour baking bread and plucking a chicken or whatever and then my husband sat down and said "let's thank god for this meal" i think i'd poison him

Mega proud! I have walked 200 miles since Jan 1st, doubling the @epilepsysociety.bsky.social challenge target of 100. I’m 52nd of the 676 #Challenge100 members and we’ve tripled our fundraising goal 🙌🏻 #fundraising #epilepsy #epilepsysociety

COLBERT, on Rep. Al Green’s removal: “Some people questioned why so much muscle was needed to remove an old man with a cane. But it turns out it was for a serious reason. When security searched him, they found that he smuggled in a spine." @latenightercom.bsky.social

Did your child lose their book collection in the Los Angeles fires? Are you a teacher at a school that lost its library or your classroom library? Whether you need one book or a whole library, we can replace your books. 📚 Everyone else, please boost this post so we can connect with those in need. 🙏

If you could find a way to generate electricity from Ronald Reagan spinning in his grave you'd be able to power the Eastern Seaboard right now.

Spent a lot of yesterday talking with children and helping them find the right book. We talked about what they liked, we laughed, we got excited about books they loved, we explored the library. I believe every child is a reader they just have to find their right book.

Suddenly who else is craving Chinese food? #thelostboys #horror #horrorsky
