If youβre afraid to write your book because you think its content stands no chance in the coming climate, Remember that banned books (and books victims thought the world would never see) are the only honest window we have into some of the darkest moments of history. Write the book. #booksky
Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesnβt get to decide what gender a person is.
Reading Parable of the Talents now by Octavia E Butler. Found this passage relevant to our times. Actually this entire book is relevant to our dystopian reality. #booksky #booktok
Mine was What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher!

Thank you! β€οΈ
I'm spending the rest of the day writing a fanfic about Vine and TikTok boinking each other in every single way.

All right #booksky I think Iβm staying here a while. Some things about me:
π©΅ The Sun is Also a Star is my fav book
π©΅ Fantasy romance junkie
π©΅ Not huge on contemporary, but do sometimes
π©΅ Books are political
π©΅ Audiobooks count
π©΅ Cozy Switch gamer
π©΅ I have a golden named Mr. Rogers (Fred for short)
I am so tired and angry. Ugh.
Thinking about kicking it here and YouTube. Iβm sad because I had big plans to get my booktok page going this year, but now I donβt even want to open it. I think Iβm going to try YouTube and see how it goes π
I have no cats but can offer you a Mr. Fred Rogers. π
Anyone know which wine pairs well with societal collapse?

Well my TikTok is back up, but now I feel dirty using it. No thanks.
I liked TikTok because I got to be who I really am in my heart: a creepy little lurker who watches everything and says little.

My introduction to #booksky I guess?
π Reading is political
π§ Audiobooks count as reading
π Reading is not a competition
π€ Reading critically & reading for fun are not mutually exclusive
π If you support problematic authors, you deserve to be called out on it
π« Toxic positivity can eff off

Also very interesting to me that right before it went dark (weβre talking 20 minutes before) I had TWO Facebook and Instagram ads pop up on my FYP for the first time ever. #tiktokban
might be good to remember that banning TikTok was Trump's idea in the first place
Tiktok name dropping Trump like heβs a savior makes me wanna never open this damn app again no matter what happens. #tiktokban
Iβm one of the 216% that downloaded Duolingo to learn Mandarin in the last couple days, so Iβm all in on this I guess. Lmao.
Please do, I love your videos!! β€οΈ
The content coming out of TikTok right now is absolutely unhinged.
I just watched Jack of Jack in the Box pack his bags for RedNote, Drumstick said theyβre moving to China, Arizona Tea claimed theyβve been Chinese spies this whole time, and Sony Pictures posted this clip. All in one scroll sesh.
