TikTok is now under US ownership and their new ToS reads like a guide to giving fascists everything they need to put you on a list.

They’re collecting information about immigration status, citizenship, sexual orientation, whether you’re trans or non binary and physical or mental disabilities.

LRS reminding me *again* that I need to get back to Kagurabachi. And a million other series, tbh. My manga backlog is absurd—so naturally I simply avoid thinking about it, which only makes it worse, which …

The subcategorization/tropefication of popular fiction has been very bad in general, both for authors and readers.
The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

You’d think, considering my fixation on Romanticism, I’d have improved at least a *little* in the poetry department since my chuuni attempts in eighth grade, but, uh … 😬

Whyyyy is making up a tiny incantation even harder than writing smut.

There is a legit general strike in the entire state of Minnesota on Friday. The first in an entire US state. The AFL-CIO and dozens of unions are involved.

All power to the workers. Fuck the Gestapo.
Dear neighbor,

I’m joining faith leaders, union representatives and community members who are calling for a Day of Truth and Freedom on Friday, January 23, 2026.

This will be a general strike in Minnesota (no work, school, or shopping) in support of our immigrant neighbors. 1/
