The Governess Affair is the first novella of Courtney's I ever read and it absolutely spun me.

This is one of our genre's core works. The exploration of agency and consent after trauma should be (and is!) studied in classrooms.

If you yell HAIRPINS and folks freak out, they know.

And it's free!

The start of the acclaimed Brothers Sinister series.
Reminder: The Governess Affair is FREE just about everywhere!

I live in her district, and this will be the day after my birthday, so, uh, happy birthday to me, I guess? Don't worry, I'm sure this district will elect someone equally terrible to take her place. Also, I'm sure she's either going to run for Senate or governor.

Last month, eight books were removed from Georgia's statewide reading book for students. It was teenagers who brought this censorship to the spotlight–even though it's not their job to clean up grown-up messes.

Get to know 3 of those teens here.

There’s no such thing as “conservative feminism.”

They’re co-opting the label “feminist” as a shield against critiques of their misogyny. But you can’t be a feminist if your entire platform is stripping rights from other women to hand them to men.

Viral posts about how Moms For Liberty had zero wins on election night...aren't true. They're misinformation, even dis-info.

M4L did have a number of school board candidates win. You can verify that information pretty easily.

They had *A LOT* of losses and their power isn't what it once was.

But the public libraries in tiny Jefferson County in Northern Appalachia were in danger of losing their tax funding thanks to right-wing book banners. And we won. The library's funding is safe!!!!!

Georgia Democrats had not won a statewide race that wasn't for a federal office since 2006.

They won two races tonight, both against GOP incumbents.

The margins? 62% to 38% in both.

This is news I can use.
Since we’re talking BUNNICULA I need everyone to know that the audiobook is read by Victor Garber and he truly out-gays himself. Harold and Chester absolutely come across as the fussy middle-aged couple they were obviously meant to be.
If you see this, post a vampire that isn’t Dracula.

Update: It's not just Nexstar

“Jimmy Kimmel Live will be preempted indefinitely” - per an ABC spokesperson
This is...something

Nexstar, one of largest owners of TV stations in the country, is pre-empting JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE "for the foreseeable future":

"Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming."

there's a weird feedback loop where the media's reaction to kirk's death pushes you to speak more ill of the dead than you otherwise would because it's the only reasonable response to the simpering praise they're heaping on him
