The weirdest paradox is that after you hit 35, you pretty much feel like you’re both 20 and 60 years old at the same time forever. Like it’s just a lifetime of thinking “but what do I REALLY wanna do with my life” while you fire up the blood pressure machine that lives on the kitchen counter now

I need this but like, a uterus with a sword.

Janet Mills is a total bad ass. I love a strong Maine woman. Full support to her and everyone who has the courage to stand up to the rapist felon.

“Her argument was straightforward: libraries are for everyone. Everyone should feel represented by the material therein and no-one has the right to censor material they disapprove of. “ morningstaronline.co.uk/article/dont...

Surround yourself with the kind of people who understand that your habit of inhaling the smell of books is not a choice, but rather a compulsion.

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

For my #horror friends 🔪🐝 Who loves Yellowjackets? Who hates it? Another great ep from @booksinthefreezer.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/5Jx1...

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you’re under absolutely no obligation to justify yourself to anyone if you decide to spend the weekend reading and eating croissants.

Sunset gathering. Western gulls. 🪶

My 2025 bingo card is full and they’re still calling numbers left and right

Okay, going to the thing. Don't want to go to the thing. But now more than ever, community matters.

I don't know how to explain to people that it's important to read books, important to keep the mind sharp and active through constant learning, important to spend time with actual humans.

I'm SO EXCITED about this 🌸 Give me all the things! pagingdfran-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/...

I'm sorry, main character, but it's the pit of despair for you. It's for the plot, trust the process. #amwriting #writerslife

Sometimes, self-care is reading Agatha Christie in front of a crackling fire during a raging snowstorm whilst enjoying a plate of emotional support scones.

It would be a shame to encourage folks to use banned book lists to do strange things like -check them out regularly at the library -request the library order them if they don’t have them -buy them -start or support banned book clubs -organize a banned book kids story time A real shame

This 1858 beauty just arrived from Pango 💚 Maybe Duo will hold off threats for a while longer 😂 @duolingoverde.bsky.social #Books #Booksky #Italian #Language #LanguageLearning

Everything is so bad. I keep telling myself it's still worth it to work on my novel, but every day I get up in the morning and the hell is SO very fresh.

They don't want to teach history so they can repeat it.

A story in a single ink line

I need a lint roller but for my brain

A society where compassion is stigmatized as effete is a society that engineers itself to breed cruel monstrous people.

Anyone else having more panic attacks than usual?

normalize re-visiting your favorite books from when you were young. C. S. Lewis wrote in a letter, “I don’t know any greater pleasure than returning to a world of the imagination which one has long forsaken and feeling, ‘after all this is my own.’”

With talks of The Odyssey, I thought it appropriate to get this beauty back out 🔱✨️

You may not believe in yourself, but you absolutely have the dark temperament, mossy aura, crooked fangs, and terrifying appetites to be a very good forest horror, swamp creature, or castle haunt if you want. I believe in you.

Doomscroll intermission: my Seattle backyard chickens noshing on some hardy greens (sound on).

Listen I know shit sucks but PLEASE find the things that make you happy and keep doing them. It is not frivolous. It is how you survive.

Your friendly neighborhood librarian here...buy physical copies of your favorite books, especially challenged or banned books. Preferably from small local merchants. That's all; carry on. #Read #BookSky #Resist 📚

The fantasy genre is so great. I love it. It has endless possibilities like dragons, sky islands, flying whales, and affordable living

I love humans but I need my time with the moon.

from “Parable of the Talents” by Octavia Butler

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

Be safe protesting today, loves. I'll be at home covered in paint, doing whatever chronic fatigue will allow.

How's publishing life, #Booksky? Currently debating on whether to submit something or sit on it until I can self-pub, or both? #Books #Publishing #BooksOfBluesky #Writing #WritingCommunity #WritersOfBluesky

At the end of the day, don’t we all just want to read books, drink tea, and eat pastries in a humble seaside cottage during a raging storm?
