We need to keep talking about how weird it is for people to think they should have a say in reading choices for anyone's kids but their own. You're not in charge of what other people's children eat or wear or when they go to bed. Why on earth would you get to choose what they read?

Going to be quite frank, I do not find anything about this “king” stuff to be funny in any form, don’t think there’s a place for us to just crack wise about it and pretend it’s normal, yes we are all irony-poisoned but if we don’t draw a line here then we have no line

I wish the only other people here were having their hard relationship talk anywhere but a truck stop Arby's in Bakersfield... But to be fair, probably so do they.

THIS. I never give a person a hard time for having never seen / read something; I just emphasize how excited I am that they'll get to experience it for the first time.

PRO TIP: Do you want to donate to relief efforts or the organizations fighting against fascists but lack the funds? Do you have a stack of gift cards just sitting there because the amount is too small to be spent? Use them. You can set the specific amount and voila.

I finished HEAVENLY TYRANT by @xiranjayzhao.bsky.social last night, and let me tell you how cathartic it is to read an excellent and angry book right now. Highly recommend.

I use f/u as a shorthand for follow-up, but looking at it in my notes just now it looks like I'm telling a list of people where they can shove themselves. But I actually like these people! I think I need a new shorthand 😬
