Folks, if your library doesn’t have a book you want to read, ask them to buy a copy. Most have a convenient form and will let you know when it comes in. If your library offers ILL, they can even borrow books from other libraries.

never let them convince you that reading is a waste of time or that reading physical books is replaceable. Physical books, zines, etc -- these are spaces where we cannot be monitored, where we can truly be w/our own thoughts for a gd min & make up our own minds. Of course that frightens them
lmao this is the headline of someone who hasn't read a book in years
Oh fuck off

a) this fucking sucks, wtf Apple?

b) anybody got the link avail, the one about how to remove this?
Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

A Study on Magic and Crystals is out now!

Talita must travel to the fairy city to learn magic and count on the necromancer Marcela, and the fairy Solis for help! Together, they learn a lot about themselves.

Yes. I will happily accept any praise!
On behalf of all self-published authors, I authorize you to reach out & tell us if you really enjoyed something we wrote.

We’re all dog-paddling in a sea of self-doubt & impostor syndrome & those little messages mean a lot.

Unless stated otherwise, our DMs/inboxes are always open for kind words 💞

Can’t believe I’m having to post this again.

Things you don’t get to choose; Sexuality, gender, ethnicity, disability, mental/physical health, religion you’re born into.

Things you do get to choose; Whether or not to be an arsehole to someone about any of these things.

Absolutely agree. I do not care if a handful of people get money they don't need in the process of giving hundreds of thousands of people money they need to stay housed and fed.
Abled folk love to speak over us and assume/tell us that we should be angry at a tiny number of “frauds”.

So here’s my answer…

I do not care.

I only care about those who need the support getting it.
I only care about the most vulnerable.

🦋✨Fun fact about bluesky ✨🦋

You can mute words, tags and topics here! And you can do so for a period of time. So if you just need a break or a breather from the weight of the world, you can take it and still see what all your friends, mutuals and favorites are posting

Indie authors & publishers aren't paid immediately, so there's just 9 days left to where any books bought in 2025 will be paid out to them. So I thought I'd do a thread where people could find some books!

(authors, please read 🧵first lol)

Today's AWS outage is causing many sites to load slower than usual. That means images might not be loading as fast as they normally do. But if you've remembered to add alt text to your images, your users will still be able to get the context and content of your images on your site.
One way sighted people can determine what to put in alt text: Imagine you sent the post or article to a friend, and the image didn't load. What would someone need to know to get the equivalent experience and context? This will help you identify the important details.

Absolutely this.

I'm watching someone this morning claim their follower count is an indicator that they are 'successful.' REALLY?

The true definition of success for me is being able to do what you love and remain validated.
What sets me off is when people try to suggest solutions for artists but do it using essentially 'enemy terminology' and measures of value (views).
If we think of ourselves as 'content creators' I feel we've already lost. 🥲
