Full of thoughts about reading, gaming, and maybe more important things.

Well my follower count has tripled since I introduced myself, so... hi! I'm Blake and this space is for talking about books, video and tabletop gaming, and other nerdy things. Glad to have y'all here.

Left wing politics are fair game also, but I won't ever post the orange man.

If you ever find yourself in Columbus, you *have* to make it to the Book Loft. Be warned, you'll be there all day!

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate Minnesota’s transgender community and recommit to standing up for our neighbors in the face of hatred.

As your Governor, I’m proud to stand in this fight with you.

For me, half of #tdov is being visible not only publicly, but being visible internally as my own authentic self. Everyone deserves to find harmony between their identity and expression thereof. That's what it means to celebrate Pride.

Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it.

It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.

Donald Trump just took an oath to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States" on the same day he will try to end birthright citizenship, a constitutional right

Seems like there's been a huge influx of people related to the tiktok ban. Welcome to #booksky! No matter what happens, it's great to have even more folks around.

Do I actually like lattes? Or do I just want to be the kind of person who regularly enjoys them? Questions that keep me up at night.

If you work at Meta and support LGBTQ+ people no you don't.
Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.

Off and on through 2024, I've been reading the 9-book Star Wars Legacy of the Force series (on 7 - Fury right now). I must say, reading a long, protracted story of a post-fascist society willingly choosing to fall back into fascism has been an interesting lens to view 2024 through.
