I'm gonna keep reposting examples of people not taking shit because it's important for us to see that you can, simply, reject the shit. Say "Uh... no no no, we will not be tolerating that."

My LotR hot take has always been that the members of the Fellowship get in an impressive amount of cardio for being a bunch of old guys. 📚💙

For the past month, I've lived each day in DC like it may be our last. I lose myself in household routines while wondering if we'll suddenly get an email telling us we can't pay our mortgage anymore because of an impulsive billionaire's self-serving whims. Precarity is the one true American way.

I cried when I read this thread.

The Mouths of Madness have driven insane many a delver into the Sporedeep. #ttrpg #monster #art #artsky

I've always admired Larson's use of color and tone.

I would like to plead with all fantasy authors to please stop putting history lessons at the start of your books. I can follow along just fine without the unnecessary exposition. 📚💙 #booksky

I've started reading *Fourth Wing* and this is the dumbest fucking book but I can't stop reading it? #booksky
