It hurts my heart that poor Kabosu is linked with fascism. It's also just really strange and ... stupid? I miss when memes were silly and that was pretty much it.

As a Canadian who works in a grocery store, I can assure you the Buy Canadian energy is real (and especially Not Buying American). I've always tried to support local, independent business over corporations. I'm happy to see it and I hope we keep it up. No need to stop because of the pause.

As someone who's been following crypto for a while (almost entirely for entertainment purposes) I find it wild that there is now a sitting US president with his own scam meme coins. And with everything else going on, I'm not sure all that many people even care.

Celebrating the launch of THE BOY I LOVE, the stunning new YA from @whusseyauthor.bsky.social at London’s iconic Gay’s the Word bookshop last night. Being with good people helps, and the evening was a tonic in these troubled times. And the book is fabulous. Please get yourself a copy. 💛

I do not think society takes the effects of technology - inside and outside of social media - very seriously at all, despite the fact that it's pervasive in almost everything we do www.wheresyoured.at/never-forgiv...

Genius detectives in fiction change authors and actors so often because without regular resets, they start figuring out they're fictional. It was believed killing them off in a dramatic final case would suspend the process, but this has proven unreliable, as Arthur Conan Doyle learned to his regret.

I have always loved public libraries, but having young children has exponentially increased my gratitude and sense of indebtedness to them. Our local library is such a huge part of our lives. The books, the programming, the very intentionally curated kids’ section. It’s all such a gift.

The current read (which I'm about a third of the way through): Chaucer's Tale: 1386 and the Road to Canterbury. I picked it up out of interest in Chaucer himself, and the time period. I was expecting more historical fiction, but so far, it reads more like a snippet of a biography.

This book means so much to me - it was my way of dealing with my dad’s death and of also exploring my experiences of childhood OCD. It was also a way to celebrate all the things I loved growing up like Hocus Pocus, Buffy, Scream, Scooby Doo, Jurassic Park, Chronicles of Narnia, and Goosebumps! 💙📚
