rory g. | COME BACK WRONG

15 yr old deltarune fans on the internet are making the kind of unsettling lynchian louvre-worthy fanart about dess holiday that i hope someone will one day make about my girl ashlin kasparhauser

genuinely this is so chilling i cant stop thinking about it

my partner was reading wolf hall & said “this reminds me of something…i think it’s Hamilton?” and now i’m fucking haunted by visions of the alternate universe where LMM wrote a hiphop musical about thomas cromwell instead of alexander hamilton. stephen gardiner in his miku binder 💀

Please contact your senators about KOSA. This bill has amassed a lot of cosponsors.

We can beat this, but we need people to call, email and send letters en mass. Please try to contact your reps as often as you are able to and encourage people you know to join you!

So... after what happened at the border today, Clover and I are essentially homeless.

I've got no choice but to change my GoFundMe while we look for housing. Anything you can spare will help.

i always hate talking about a manuscript before it’s finished (feels like the writer equivalent of invoking the Sweater Curse) but i finally hit 20k on this wip so i’m officially breaking the seal: my current project is gormenghast with mechs and i’m having a BLAST writing it

it’s so funny and heartwarming when patrons are ready to throw hands for library staff lmfao someone in line at the circulation desk said something rude to me and a teenager yelled “you’re talking to a librarian bro i’m about to beat your ass” at the top of his lungs

type of texts you be getting at 9 pm when your bf reading wolf hall by hilary mantel

will be taking a shot this evening for every cringe tshirt seen at texas book fest. already encountered “i read dangerously” on three separate occasions so this might kill me.

Also if you gotta steal, don’t do it from target. They’ve got really high security measures and they’ll wait until you’ve stolen enough stuff to prosecute before they arrest you. This is a known thing. Pick a different store.

With SNAP benefits being withheld, I’d like to remind everyone of No Snitch November. If you see somebody taking food? No you didn't. Taking formula? No you didn't. Taking diapers? No you didn't. When the government turns their back on our neighbors, it's our job to protect them.

please watch movies and read books and play games and look at art, please view it with your own eyes through a lens you made yourself and not just through video essayists and ending explained videos please im begging you

not really a halloween costume in earnest, but here’s a “ghost” outfit 👻

I cannot stress how important Rebecca has been for trans gamedevs. I wouldn't be here if not for her and her wife.

Help if you can.

My partner’s story featured their abuela pulling a shotgun on someone who cut her off in traffic (legendary)

Dia de los Muertos party. We had about 20 people over, they all brought photos to put on the ofrenda & halfway through the night everyone took turns telling a funny story about the loved one they brought. Really moved by how many folks told us afterwards that they needed this 🖤

the best part is halloween continues tomorrow and the next day

A rising political star with blood on his hands, and framed for murders he didn’t commit. A detective chasing the Ritualist killer. Their lives collide as Sheffield descends into fear and obsession.

Why Did These Authors Have Their School Visit Canceled? They Were Talking About Their Book About Book Bans. Country Club Elementary School in California's Bay Area canceled an author visit moments before it began. Why? It covered book bans.

If you and your children are not ready for a particular book, that is okay. It is not okay to limit the access to books, stories, and experiences for other families. Every book is not for everyone, but every book is for someone.
