2024 Wrap-Up from Storygraph, a few stats, and the graphic. I love stats so the end of year wrap ups are fascinating to me.
I saw someone else post theirs & felt like sharing since I haven't.
It was a great year of reading!
Day 387 of my streak w/ many days of reading 1% right before midnight 🤣

What the actual hell?! A close Trump advisor and MAGA figure just posted, “Alligator lives matter. The good news is alligators are guaranteed 65 million meals if we get started now.” This is disgusting, it’s genocidal language. Dehumanizing, dangerous, and unacceptable. How is this even real life?

The way we were treated at Delaney Hall is almost unbelievable. ICE shoved me, manhandled @repbonnie.bsky.social, and arrested Mayor Baraka.
They disrespected us and tried to stop us from conducting the oversight we’re elected to do. But we’ll never back down in our fight for what is right.

Finished this awesome trilogy by Brynne Weaver. I'm sad it's over honestly, but she did leave a hint for her next book in the epilogue. So we'll see ;_;
Serial killer ladies fall for murderous men who are protective & most if not all the victims deserve it. So. Good. #booksky

When one neurodivergent friend sends another neurodivergent friend their late in the day first meal of the day & that friend realizes they haven't eaten either so they do.... an angel gets its wings or something I'm pretty sure 🪽 Read it in a book somewhere.

1. I acknowledge Fifty Shades is not well written & bad BDSM rep. I am still going to reread it so I can read Greys POV trilogy for the first time. If I can do the whole thing; that would be a first. 🤣 We'll see.
2. The Stars Too Fondly was really cute ❤️ I wanted more.

ICE has begun raiding the homes of American citizens. A widely shared story out of Oklahoma describes a disturbing incident where a woman and her children were dragged into their yard half-naked. Reports are mounting across multiple states of agents targeting the wrong properties.

This is where I'm at with playing polite with politics anymore.
At this point, I consider these acts & ones like them as a threat of harm to my life & my daughters.
Politicians who don't stand up to this shit & the Trump cult are TRAITORS to the American people & deserve jail & far worse.

Hey fuck face, as a married woman married to a veteran, thanks for attempting to take my right to vote away & putting it behind a paywall of getting a passport or having to change my legal name back to my maiden name.

Major alert: Montana may be about to pass a major anti-trans bill that charges parents with felony endangerment of a child if their child is on trans youth care.
It would apply to parents just passing through the state, visiting.
Would be the first law of its kind to pass anywhere.
