UFO is wonderful. Most respectful community I’ve ever seen. Happy to waste my life there.

No.

It IS a real issue, and trans people were not uniformly ‘already hated.’

Insomnia led me down a Saga flavored path.

Yeah, I’ve always been a little surprised that people get a bit salty when their favorite new game gets 8s and 9s. 10 is the pinnacle of current achievement, only to be set by something that comes after it. I think that idea of scale is lost on a lot of people.

That’s very fair. And maybe there isn’t a perfect one yet.

Given those parameters, what would you consider a good visual 10/10? (I may or may not be looking for things I haven’t played that are pretty to look at.)

I absolutely adore Daphne. The microtransactions haven’t felt necessary yet after several hours. Horror is awesome on it too.

I haven’t! The only King works I’ve read are “Nightmares and Dreamscapes” and “Salem’s Lot”, but I’ve seen plenty of the movie adaptations. I’ll give Tommyknockers a look. Thanks for the suggestion!

I haven’t read a good horror novel in a while. Any good recommendations for someone who likes cosmic horror or psych horror? #booksky

A repeat thought, Bluesky, & a Librarian told you this so it must be true 🤣

Audiobooks definitely count as reading (as well as listening). If you've played through an audioook, its perfectly fine to describe that as "I have read [x]"

All other forms of assistive software count as reading too 💙📚

I regret to inform you that I do sometimes judge a book by its cover.

Most US book bans target children’s literature featuring diverse characters and authors of color The number of book bans in the US has soared in recent years. A new study shines light on which types of books and authors are the main targets.

59% of banned books were children’s books featuring diverse characters or nonfiction books about historical figures, according to a new study. Authors of color wrote 39% of the books even though authors of color make up just 10% of U.S. authors #Booksky #BlackSky

If I’m reading for fun, physical. If I’m taking notes, digital. Margin notes have become so much easier with the advent of tablets and I can’t go back.

Lighting a few candles and enjoying (a few) glasses of scotch can really set a mood for mystery or horror though.

I love that so many are advocating for libraries on my TL. If you don't know already, you can connect your library card to Libby, which allows you to read books on the Kindle store for FREE. #Booksky
