Oh I have lots of thoughts. Will be sharing them

Oh nothing... procrastinating on writing this *intimate* scene We're over 50k+ words on TMFTR. Still on Part 2 as well 🙃. We still moving forward and onward.

Tempted By Danger : Diesel is my least favorite. I like him more as a cameo in his brother's books, not his. Smdh. King of Ashes was good! S.A., indeed, does not miss. I still prefer All the Sinners Bleed though. Happy reading!

Leaving this right here. Missed the premiere on PBS tonight but will be watching it on the Tube of You in the A.M. I will be reacting on here to it too. youtu.be/I2_GVDDo0N8?...

Anyway, current WIP is at 45k+ words. That means I'm halfway through this thing! It's really exciting because I havent written anything since Wednesday. My hand and wrist were extremely irritated. Had to go buy a brace and everything. 😫 #tmftr

Okay cool... it wasn't just tripping with me

Did BlueSky kick anyone else out?

A very thorough video #booksky

Started watching Mao (from the creators of Inuyasha). They have continued the tradition of bangers as theme songs/endings. I like the theme song more than the ending song though. For Inuyasha, I preferred the endings.

Here we go. I've said a lot. I can make a Part 2, but this was exhausting enough. Timestamps included, long video. youtu.be/BlDzk_c5CDo?...

Happy Mother's Day!

Pizza Hut is doing their bookit program again. They can get a free personal pizza (max 5 in a month) during the summer. So if you need help pushing your kids to read you can't go wrong with pizza www.bookitprogram.com

Kick, Push by Lupe came out 20 years ago?!

Congratulations to @cclaremdmph.bsky.social for being sworn in as @acog.org 77th President! The first Black woman to do hold this position!!!

Beyoncé don't even wanna be there 4real. Lol. That's what I think and I'm sticking with it.

Coco gave me nothing per usual. I just... I don't know... she doesnt do it for me. Beautiful gowns though.

This reminds me of the red that wsdm did

Thank you SZA, dear. Absolutely stunning

Is this real? Is this AI? Is he okay?

I just saw that @brian-goldstone.bsky.social got a Pulitzer Prize for his book on the working homeless!!! Linking to the New America interview, since that fellowship program is how I first learned of his work: www.newamerica.org/insights/the...

C'MON MUTHA!!!!

Absolutely

This pissed me off. She could've done SO MUCH.

This goes with the theme about the body being used as art and idk... it's basic but I still like.

This is primarily on Nature editorial team. I am hyper aware of needing to be careful when reviewing this type of work (some of which I've recommended be published). There can be real harms created when "move fast, break things" is applied to research publication.

we got the video youtu.be/rwNp0FK2d1g

Saw a thread.... What do you mean you've never had an O from your husband?!?!

Here's my thoughts on this book: app.thestorygraph.com/books/4643bc...

“Why aren’t Black people talking about this?” What do you want me to SAY??? “Ahh I can’t believe they’re doing the exact things they told us they would do”????

I'm 60% into The People's Library by Veronic G. Henry (under 300 pages). It came out in January. It's a scifi suspense. I'll post my thoughts tomorrow. I plan to finish tonight. #booksky #blackbooksky

I've never heard of this movie.

Omg! We got a pub date for the sequel to The Raven Scholar! 10/5/27!

Update: I think i need the ebook or physical for this. It's not keeping my attention 😵‍💫 It happens to me often that fantasy is to be read physically by me.

Guess what just came off of hold on Libby?! Yeah, immediately listening. #booksky #blackbooksky

Paused this until late May/June.

Gonna leave this here.

This should be discussed more. Men’s violence toward women goes beyond physical harm. It shows up in control, threats, isolation, manipulation and psychological abuse that reshape how women live and move through the world…the quiet ways women’s freedom, joy and light get taken from them.

So she did end up performing tonight? I saw on Threads that someone said she did not perform. Maybe it was two shows?

The past two weeks I have to create safe spaces for Black women spiritually. The amount of stories I have heard about the abuse, violence & death amongst Black women & children <<< Community care looks differently now.

Who is Lexi Brown???

Klay's parents LOVED Megan. I know they pissed off!

Some of the current efforts to dilute and dismantle Black American social, cultural, and especially political power: 1) Ending civil rights era legislation. 2) Voter disenfranchisement. 3) FBA/ADOS movements. 4) Blaming Black America for US "one drop" racial strata. 5) D9 & PHFAM orgs as "demonic."

Regarding Megan thee Stallion...

White authors piling on a Black woman about being disappointed in her interaction with another Black woman/an author <<<

And I cannot stand people who want bully online but can't fight in person. Please pick a struggle.

"Authors and publishing don't owe us nothing." And that's why the book suck now and authors don't know professional finesse. You're literally the consumer. You have the most power under capitalism. I want us to bffr.
