If a bookstore could only play one musical artist in their store forever who would it be and why is that wrong because the answer is Kate Bush?

That’s why you’re the best: I love that you were like β€œNo shame, just not for me, thanks.”

If you find yourself on the side of those who wish to limit what types of families and lives and experiences people can find in books on a library shelf then you are not on the side of libraries and what they stand for at their core.

Check the top of your feed: is it set to β€œDiscover” or β€œFollowing”? If you’re on Discover it’s going to show you accounts that it thinks you *may* want to follow, which would explain seeing something from someone you’re *not* following (but not why the algorithm thinks you want to see it)

Yikes. I had kind of a persistent p*rn bot try to follow me despite repeated blocks, but not showing in my feed.

Most Texas school board candidates who support book bans lost their elections A majority of pro-book ban school board candidates lost in Texas, but education advocates are worried about other election results.

Some good news from Texas.

Well, a year+ later, I’m back on this thing. More accounts means a more satisfactory feed, but I’m still having trouble finding people I know.

@petebrown.bsky.social thanks for being so consistent with your profile pic, so that I can think to myself β€œI wonder if Pete’s here?” And then immediately say to myself upon searching your name, β€œoh yes, there he is!”

From now until Saturday, there is a 10% discount on all in-stock items at the Storrieville Bookshop!

(Need to scrape together a few bucks to make October's rent! Always a hoot.)
