When I say I want a home library I mean I want thousands of books in my house and also everyone shutup

Welcome!
I heard this is a good place to talk about taxing the rich, breaking up big tech, and ending Washington corruption.

I’ve tried standing outside yelling. That’s why I’m here.
OK miss me with the bullshit that writers are ONLY on social media to sell books.

We're also humans who have pets and gardens and baked goods and pancakes that improbably come out of the pan looking like goats.

Where else are we supposed to talk about those things? Just stand outside and yell??

And let’s welcome them when they do.
You're not "late to the party" when you enjoy an old book for the first time. Books don't have an RSVP deadline. The party started long ago, and guests show up when they're meant to.

Somehow, the Bluesky algorithm thinks I like Corgis. I'm not mad about it, but I would like to clarify that I like *all* dogs. Please share photos of your pup(s) with me.

I'll start. This is Jake, our Lab mix who seemed unimpressed about turning double digits yesterday.

Me: It's so nice to be here!
