I’m not watching #Eurovision again this year, but the whole shitshow of banning “kant”, banning rainbow flags, and being supposedly “apolitical” while having Israel send an October 7 survivor with a song that’s clearly about how Zionism will prevail despite pain and suffering is truly mind-boggling.

For this weekend’s Observer I wrote about @acmedarryl.bsky.social’s graphic biography of Elon Musk, and why it’s only published in France. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

A lot of y'all -- and I mean A LOT OF Y'ALL -- seem to be having a problem with the first part of "don't engage, just block".

Endlessly complaining about all the trolls and assholes from twitter is engagement.

Screenshotting and reposting their bullshit is engagement.

Don't engage.

Just block.

People who bleat about the advent of (Trumpist) fascism and then turn around and report Gazan gofundmes as spam: you want to find a nazi to punch? Look in a mirror.

Wish I had waited a bit longer before I bought my Kobo Libra 2 a few months back.

Any reviews yet on what impact the colour screen will have on the reading experience?

I would like to once again recommend that if you're looking to support a news outlet that covers Israel & Palestine, +972 Magazine is "an independent, online, nonprofit magazine run by a group of Palestinian & Israeli journalists."

Powerful, indispensable work, founded in 2010.

Not only is borrowing books from the library something you can do, it's something you *should* do. Supporting libraries is good for authors *and* it's good for libraries. Go get a card, walk inside, take out some books, read the books, books are great, libraries are great, life is amazing.
