3 out of 5 stars to Little Mushroom: Judgement Day by Shisi on Goodreads: #booksky 🪐📚 www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

I just tried to call Governor Hochul's office to ask her to remove Eric Adams from office (which she has the power to do), and it wouldn't even put me through to voicemail, just "we're experiencing unusually high call volumes, call back at a later time, beep beep beep, disconnect."

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

While I'm sharing gift links, I'm reminded that we discussed Olivia Waite's NYTimes romance column in a recent Stitch & Bitch Liveshow, and I though some people on here might enjoy this recommendations list: #bookstodon www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Gift link for a friend, but this one is significant enough that I think it's worth sharing to the public timeline. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/o...

Yesterday I left a funny comment on a theme park YouTuber's video, and now I have people arguing in my notifications about how the government is gonna break up Disney, and we're all going to bow down to the military, and only true fans will be admitted to the parks just like Walt would have wanted.

I've seen (and blocked) a handful of people making snide comments about "Putin" and "Russian oil oligarchs" and shit like that because Evgenia Shiskova and Vadim Naumov were on board the American Airlines flight, and asking "why were Russians figure skating in America?"

submitted 27 days ago • 21 comments

Horrible news for figure skating fans. Sounds like these skaters were a bunch of young kids and their parents/coaches. Terrible week just keeps getting worse.

Look, I'm going to Seattle Worldcon because I'm American, I have to live here no matter what, and dammit they cannot take this small sliver of joy from me, but I'm ready to accept this may be a mostly domestic Worldcon the same way Chengdu was for Chinese fans. I don't expect folks to travel here.

I filmed a video today, but got confused about my fancy booktube hat rotation and wore the wrong hat. To keep the hats in order, I'd have to publish FIVE more videos before this one! 😩 I know most of my viewers don't care about the hat rotation at all. I should just publish the video. And yet. 😢😢😢

The TikTok ban includes CapCut. A WHOLE GENERATION of new storytellers under 18 use that for editing in animation, film, & socials. i work with underprivileged kids to make shorts: they didn’t know industry standard programs — cause they cost a TON both in hardware & software — they all used CapCut.

I was waiting until closer to midnight to private my TikTok account in case US accounts and videos will still be accessible internationally while we're locked out of them, but WHOOPS they took it offline early and I missed! Can any international friends tell me if they can still see my page/videos?

I have all my videos downloaded, but do we know if we need to turn our TikTok accounts private before the ban goes into effect to protect them, or will our accounts all be disabled? #tiktokban

I'm experimenting with uploading a few past TikTok videos to YouTube Shorts. I don't like the 3-minute limit, and I don't have a filming/editing option I like for mobile/vertical (I was filming and editing in-app on TikTok), but I guess we'll see.

Happy #caturday from sweet Sunshine and me! Yesterday was Sunshine's "vet records birthday" (actual birthday unknown, but it's at least close to the real birthday of her kittens), so she got some fun treats. I like to think of us both as January girls!
