Heather, have you seen that your posts are being scrubbed from Facebook? A number of us are writing complaints, this is unconscionable.

Something fitting about all of this being relegated to being indoors. It feels so claustrophobic and also like a funeral

Weakened US public broadcasters will fight for their lives in 2025 | Semafor As Republicans take power in Washington, there’s greater concern among public radio figures about the future of NPR and public radio broadly.

This is terrifying, please consider supporting public broadcasting if you can. As the sources we used to think of as left-wing swerve away out of fear, indie media is becoming crucial if we’re ever going to get out of this nightmare.

Well she's just about as qualified as (and I'm sure less evil than) the current nominee. Rooting for her!

And they’re getting rid of any curricula they consider “woke.” Texas: Raising the next generation of bigots.

3.75* A literary mystery of sorts, although we never get a full resolution, themes of loss and grief, maybe how little we understand each other. The structure & characters were interesting, and although I didn't really like the last 3rd, the first 2 sections were intriguing enough to make up for it.

Me too, and I'm not leaving GR altogether, just don't post reviews there (and never buy from their links.)

Yes, Goodreads. I track all my reading on Storygraph now, I like it much better (especially because they allow ratings by 0.5.)

The Everyman's set was around $70 when I bought it years ago, from Blackwell's, so pricey but not too bad!

Ah, right. I had an issue with a Novalog order in October, pretty terrifying. Luckily it came in 2 weeks after I ordered, so not too bad, but I was halfway through my last bottle. 😬

Can you explain why?

Looking forward to joining
@mookse.bsky.social next year in reading the gorgeous Proust set I bought years ago, with good intentions, which to this point has just served as decor.

For some reason it doesn’t show up in a reply, but I did get it to post on my wall. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Guess not! Maybe the image is too big? Just imagine something beautiful 😂

Oops! I’m obviously still trying to figure this place out. 😊 Hopefully this will work.

It exists! (For some reason I can’t post the link, but look on Melissa Lee’s feed.)

Here are mine. They’ve been acting as decor for too long.

Opinion | Election Day in the woods, in a nation of cruelty and grace On the Appalachian Trail, the shelters are welcoming, but there are wasps in the walls.

This new piece by @rusty.todayintabs.com is just lovely — thinky and full of heartache about our country, which can be so generous and so cruel in the same breath wapo.st/3Z70usM (gift link)

I was just telling someone on FB there should be a #T1D or #diabetes starter pack.

Just joined and think I might post reads and reviews here rather than in Bezosland. I’m finally making my way through last year’s NYRB splurge, picked up My Death this morning and I’m obsessed. So weird in the best of ways.
