PLURIBUS is so good and such a timely allegory.

To be fair it was Papageno who said it so #onbrand
I can’t believe the met opera made a six-seven joke in the middle of a performance 😂
LD!!!!!!! Ahhhhh! 💚💚💚💚
At least it was a controlled/space-constrained detonation. 😂
My understanding was that a hard-boiled egg wouldn’t explode in the microwave if it was cut in half.
This understanding was not correct.
Replied and then realized I don’t follow instructions. 😂
Truly so grateful I got to see him 😭

UPS has been insane recently! They lost my (Schedule II) medication for TWO months before it turned up randomly the other day.
But yay, author copies!!

2 ongoing convos are dovetailing rn:
1. a holiday shopping $ blackout aimed at big business;
2. worry over small presses closing or paring down.
Let's talk direct action: YOU CAN DO BOTH😀

Something transphobic, probably.
The RELENTLESS war, Annika. You’ve gotta really commit!
Netgalley email promoting The Relentless War on Masculinity by some dummy. First para of description: „The Relentless War on Masculinity is a cultural, rhetorical, chemical, legal and institutional attack on all males. During the last seven decades it has resulted in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand moving from being societies characterised by equality (during the 1980s) to now being highly gynocentric.”
Really, netgalley? Ew.
“To preserve the values of the civilized world, it is necessary to set fire to a library.”
5am writers’ club, let’s do this.
What timer is this? 👀 I can’t take my adhd meds for a while and this looks like it might be useful 👀
Became American in May. I got to vote for the first time in the 18 years I’ve lived in this country during the primary. I got to vote for the second time today.
I’m so excited I could vote for Mamdani both times. 💚
Eeee, it’s Nov 3! Happy book birthday to me! 📖🍰
"There are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue."
Damn, what a coincidence. All these news orgs keep laying off the same types of people while a bilious, rapey, leather-faced buffoon provides them cover and shakes them down for money to build a library named for a man who does not read.
Thank you so very much 💚💚💚
@aleksandrahill.bsky.social really brought it with Secondhand Music. I'm not sure which title is cleverer, this or Solitaire for Three. Another hit for Best Canadian Fantasy & Science Fiction: Vol 2 and @ourmankoto.bsky.social. Thoughtful, plausible, a hint of the fear of AI, satisfying. #booksky
Thank you so much! 🥰
Congratulations!!!!!!!
@rexparker.bsky.social this might give you a chuckle (please ignore the initial fills that turned out to be wrong 😂)
