James Harvey III, Tuskegee airman, leader of the team that won the US military's first aerial gunnery competition for combat aviators. AKA, Top Gun. James Harvey is a handsome Black man in WW2 uniform with an indomitableble look of calm confidence.

Tom Cruise in an aviation suit and Rayban aviator sunglasses from Top Gun.

Hey, while we're talking about erasing history:

In 1949 the US military held its first Aeriel Gunnery Competition, later known as "Top Gun."

The best of the best competed in dogfighting and other skills. The team that won, was the 332nd: The Tuskegee airmen.

So they refused to announce a winner🤡

if you’re cis, don’t offer trans people meaningless platitudes. instead:
- pay for someone’s HRT
- help a trans person find employment and housing
- donate to local trans organizations
- contact your reps and demand non-compliance with policies targeting trans people
- *listen* to us

The Trans Literature Preservation Project: A Practical Guide to Resisting Censorship Project 2025 wants to criminalize trans literature. Here’s a game plan for keeping our stories alive.

Okay, here’s the deal: RIGHT NOW is the time for concrete, direct action.

If you’re following me, it’s probably because you care about trans art and trans literature. The article below lays out my suggestions for dozens of concrete actions you can take to preemptively combat literary censorship.

Driving is the Literal Devil I just want to be a passenger princess for the rest of my life.

If you are in Chicago.
Do not forget.

If anyone asks
YOU DON'T KNOW ANY "ILLEGAL ALIENS"

If you are questioned
YOU KNOW NOTHING.

If someone is being pursued
YOU ARE THEIR BEST FRIEND.

We are a Sanctuary City.
DO NOT TALK TO OR COOPERATE WITH ICE OR OTHER FEDS

“Vegan Leather-“

I think the worst part of having Toxic Parents™️ is that every time I need help or advice or a safe place to cry I want to call my mom..and then I remind myself that every time I do that, she makes me feel like shit.

And I made a promise to stop hurting my self.

I need the StoryGraph app to be better. I don’t want to use good reads 😭😭😭😭.

"Why would you steal from Keanu Reeves? I'm not even worried that he would John Wick me; I think he'd just give it to you if you asked."

"Have we tried asking Keanu for universal health care? I bet he could do it."

"Even if he couldn't, I believe he would give it his best shot."

SO SO GOOD. 9/10.
We got:
-Uncanny valley vibes while still a cozy read
-FMC feels v AuDHD coded
-Wife Guy, Touch Her And Die
-Brown girl being bad ass!!!
-BROWN GIRL GETTING HER REVENGE
-Comeuppance for Shit Parents
-Feminist commentary that doesn’t feel ham fisted???
-Sex While Floating

Reading time with my Best Boy 🥰

Me walking away from Twitter.

Final score: 3/10

It would have been 7/10 but that pregnancy storyline was trash.

It’s giving lazy writing, tbh

AND THEN THERE WAS NO DISCUSSION AFTER THAT.

Like?????

This is not how someone desperate to not have kids acts.

And then after they found out, there was no discussion on if abortion was even an option!!!???!!!!???!!!

Like first of all, he knew he never wanted kids AND was notorious for being a party guy and sleeping around. Why WOULDNT he have gotten a vasectomy?!?!?!?!?

Second, when he told the FMC he wanted her to take the morning after pill she was like “ehh it’s probably fine. I don’t thing I’m ovulating”

The whole pregnancy story line felt so off for me. The MMC (who was a KNOWN fuck boy) had trauma around pregnancy and set a Firm Boundary around not wanting kids.

…and then they first time they had sex, he (KNOWING SHE WAS NOT ON BIRTH CONTROL) decided not to use condoms.

Make it make sense.

I almost DNF this book bc of the Surprise Pregnancy. Like I knew it was coming bc the foreshadowing was NOT subtle but I was like 75% done so I just powered through.

The Penalty Box, also by Odette Stone

….I begrudgingly like this one. We have Arranged/Fake Marriage, Opposites Attract, Enemies (kinda) to Lovers, Touch Her and Die, and…..Surprise Pregnancy.

Which as we know, is a popular trope in romance that I haaaaaaate.

Home Game by Odette Stone
Not bad! V Hurt/Comfort, two worlds collide, slow burn.

I have a few issues with it but overall imma give it a 7.5-8/10.

…im Ngl I wasn’t gonna say the title/author bc I’m a little scared of the internet crazies but it’s not gonna make sense unless I do sooooo

Idk if I was just really spoiled with the first #HockeyRomance I ever read being OMG Check Please by @ngoziu.com but uhhhhh….

The ones I’m reading rn are so hit or miss. Like to be fair, they’re by the same author…but still?
