Listen, I don't mean to overstate my case, but this could very well be the best gothic paranormal fantasy novella to come out in 2025, and if you miss out on that, ghosts might haunt your underwear drawer

And not in like a sexy way

It's the second day of banned books week, and so I have decided to give you all more books by living, marginalized authors that are CONFIRMED banned.

I thought I was already as radicalized as possible but then I toured the Kilmainham Jail the English colonizers built in Dublin and they literally had a special yard for the child inmates. The CHILD INMATES

Fuck Germany. This ALREADY HAPPENED HERE.

Ex. Black women could not be considered rape victims under the law because we werent considered women. This was proven during Jim Crow when 7 white men kidnapped & gang raped Recy Taylor in Alabama.

Black people have always lived under a dual state

On October 7, as we face the unfaceable horror of two straight years of this, if we think about how impossible it feels to witness, to struggle against, to internalize, imagine surviving it. With a wounded child, living amongst the rubble, unable to afford basic medical treatment.

โ€œConversion therapyโ€ is a euphemism for child abuse, and every mainstream medical and mental health organization has rejected this practice for decades. There is no evidence that it does anything besides harm children. It is one of the few subjects where there is an overwhelming medical consensus.

Banning controversy reveals Blueskyโ€™s federation isnโ€™t there yet Blueskyโ€™s protocol is so complicated that not even the biggest alternative network has figured out how to become independent

โ€œBluesky claims to want decentralization and composable moderation, but they still enjoy abusing the power of arbitrary banishment.โ€ - Link

Pic of Plestia Alaqad overlaid with text from interview: Plestia Alaqad: I can't believe that it's almost โ€” [she pauses] no, it's not almost, it's actually two years. Okay, I can't believe that it's been two years of this ongoing genocide. When I was reporting in Gaza for 45 days, these 45 days felt like 45 years. And now it's 200 days feeling like 200 years for the people who are actually still on the ground facing bombing, displacement and starvation, which is being used as a method by Israel. Israel is literally ethnically cleansing people in Gaza, and we're watching a genocide unfold live on TV.

23-year-old journalist Plestia Alaqad, like many Gazans, lost her home in the first days after October 7. unable to reenter her homeland, stuck watching the horror continue, sheโ€™s publishing her diaries from reporting on the ground.

โ€œWhen you look at the sky in Gaza, you can't differentiate. Is this a cloud or is this smoke? The whole time you're listening to the sounds of drones, quadcopters, airstrikes and bombs,โ€ says award-winning journalist Plestia Alaqad.

I've Endured Two Years of Genocide. But I'm Still Here. The world before October 7, 2023, is a distant memory. But we carry on, fueled by the determination that this land will become a place of life once more.

"All we ask is for this relentless nightmare of genocide to end, for the land to become a land again, and for us to once again embrace life, not death."
