It's Invisible Disabilities Week 🫶🏽
Not all disabilities are visible and that doesn't make them any less real.
Chronic pain, mental health conditions, neurological disorders, autoimmune diseases & more deserve awareness, respect, and understanding ✨

It's my birthday! To celebrate, I think you should buy a book for yourself. And maybe have some cake.

I have been lurking here but still reading! Mostly light, fluffy rom-com type stuff to counterbalance ..... *gestures broadly* Favorite recent read was probably Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson. Highly recommend if you like seafaring adventure, magic, cups & talking rats

The Senate GOP passed the largest wealth transfer in US history yesterday.
It includes a $975 billion income tax break for the 1%, the largest cut to food stamps in history, and a 60% increase in the number of uninsured Americans.
This is a dramatic escalation in class warfare.

It’s hard for disabled people to simply “stay off social media” because sometimes we don’t have the energy to do anything else, it can be our safe space where we get help and support. ❤️🩹

Literally begging you to post about Just Some Stuff. We will see the news I absolutely promise. Twenty people will repost the same exact thing about the news. Only you can post about a turtle you saw
i don't mean to come off as rude but we cannot sustain ourselves on outrage and anger forever. i think it's even more important now to post about other things too. even if it gets less engagement. you never know who will find it cool and interesting.
It’s a real mindfuck when most ppl wanna post about their latest failures/successes, or weird shit they saw in the wild or cool stuff they made…but the country is a cesspool so cool/weird shit seems trite.

CLARIFICATION :
The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline.
They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY
So spread this around
They can be texted. They can be called.

If you want a fantasy book that feels cozy but still has lots of adventure, might I recommend The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi? This pirate fantasy adventure has some high-ish stakes, but still feels as cozy as a bed time story. It's cozy the way The Princess Bride is cozy, ya know? 🙌🥰 #Booksky 💙📚

Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies.
Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.

This is bullshit. Absolutely aiming to disenfranchise trans folks, women who are married, and anyone who doesn't have access to passports etc for whatever reason. Under this law, I cannot vote. I AM LIVID.
BREAKING: The House passed the SAVE Act, which requires Americans to show a passport or birth certificate to register to vote.
Over half of all Americans do not have a passport. Millions more do not have access to their birth certificate.
21 MILLION citizens will be impacted.
