i’d rather pay 3x more in congestion fees than bow down to this loser

Lord, give me the confidence of Democrats continually texting their constituents for money at this stage of the slide into authoritarianism they could be doing something about

Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books It’s bad if you like to keep ebook backup copies.

hey for anyone who might want to actually own their kindle books instead of renting them, or who might be thinking of switching to kobo etc and will want to convert them to epubs, you now only have one week before amazon kills your ability to download its ebooks www.theverge.com/news/612898/...

hey now, leave punxsutawney phil out of this! he didn’t choose this life 😅

Download CDC Guidelines Removed By The Trump Admin The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.

I'm trying to save them.

You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

The current state of the world is just so disgusting. I can’t even fully enjoy my hobbies without my mind wandering off, and completely disassociating.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, it's intentional. They're calling it "flooding the zone." The intent is to overwhelm and exhaust us so we can not effectively resist. Something simple you can do right now now is to make sure to take breaks and rest.

thanks, dad 😘🥰

My anxiety finally calmed down enough for me to pick up a book and read. Whew!

seeing the dumpster fire that was “keep politics out of booktok” taught me that reading isn’t enough. critical thinking needs to be taught, needs to be practiced. #booksky

The purpose of yesterday was to frighten us to submitting in advance. I have my freedom of speech and I will use it here and everywhere else I exist online to make my voice heard. No oligarch, no president will silence me. So, be prepared for more Latinx books just as soon as my mourning ends, okay?

So now that the lower costs for prescription drugs for millions on Medicare have been repealed, how are the “price of eggs” people doing? How is the “$10 paperback” girl feeling?

Those were rhetorical questions. I don’t actually care.

How’s that January tbr going?
Mine was derailed by fascism.

Like I haven’t touched a book in days.

Claiming audiobooks "don't count" is ableist and stupid. Consume your content in the fashion most enjoyable and convenient. #booksky

I’m really not ok about this whole thing. I spent months worrying about the ban. I spent hours this week downloading & backing up videos, adding people on other platforms. I went through so many emotional rollercoasters, only to find out it was a gross publicity stunt. #tiktokban #tiktok #booksky

yeah, i could weirdly access it on my laptop! it was really laggy though—i couldn’t do much but view my profile and watch old glitchy videos in my fyp 🤷‍♀️🤔

Welp. I’m definitely going to hit my 2025 reading goal now that my time just opened up… I might need to up my goal #booktok #booksky

Hello to all my new followers! Let’s just make this super clear:

-reading is political
-problematics authors suck: SJM, TJ Klune, Yarros, JKR, and more
-audiobooks are reading
-diverse reading should be the goal (BIPOC, queer, disabled, indie)
-AI is stupid and gross
-free Palestine

#booksky

My introduction to #booksky I guess?

📚 Reading is political
🎧 Audiobooks count as reading
📖 Reading is not a competition
🤔 Reading critically & reading for fun are not mutually exclusive
👉 If you support problematic authors, you deserve to be called out on it
🚫 Toxic positivity can eff off

It was never just another app.

It was Community.
It was Knowledge and News.
It was Nostalgia.
It was Entertainment.
It was Different.
It was Connection.

And yet we know that #booklovers will always find each other ❤️‍🩹🫶🏻

#booksky #tiktokban

One thing is for sure. With no TikTok ima get hella reading done #tiktokrefugee #booktok

#tiktokban : the fact that the us govt wants to take away my, along with 170 million americans’, joy and income for contrived narratives of “national security threats” is not only a blatant display of censorship, it’s fucking bullshit

if it turns out tt was sold to the billionaire bros, i’m out ✌️
