elon musk: "I am literally hitler" the new york times: "elon musk experimented with a new tone on thursday. some critics fear authoritarianism."

"There were over 10k-20k [Black people] that lived in London during the time of Jane Austen. The number has been estimated to be as high as 30k across England, Scotland, & Ireland. With less than 28 dukes during that time period, who were you more likely to run into, a duke, or a person of color?"

“They love America; they sure do seem to hate Americans.” Thank you @dansavage.bsky.social for speaking this incredible truth. (In this week’s opening monologue.) #maga #aca #supremecourt

#Romancebooks are dangerous because they promote radical ideas like “women’s pleasure is important” and “no one should have to settle for a romantic partner who doesn’t respect and value them” and “everyone* deserves a HEA, even people who don’t look like you or love like you.” 💙📚🌶️ *not fascists

Happy #tropetuesday! What if you made up a sexy Scottish boyfriend, sent him a bunch of letters, but then you found out that he actually exists! This bonkers but wonderful premise is why #romance is unmatched! Tessa Dare’s work is always vibrant and hilarious, and this book is a great example. 📚💙
