Everything I do for a living is based on this. The things you find yourself pursuing as distractions from the things you think you're supposed to be pursuing might actually be your destiny.

Pronatalists: Encourage white births, enforce regressive, hierarchal & stratified social roles, push women out of public sphere & limit women’s prospects for social, professional intellectual life to pregnancy, childcare & housework. @moiradonegan.bsky.social

A new episode of Eyes on Gilead should be in your podcast feeds, where we recap 'Janine', ie, episode 5 of The Handmaid's Tale. Which, as @anythingbutfifi
points out, means we are now halfway through the final season! You can find it on Spotify here open.spotify.com/episode/3oxR...

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

I’m saying this in my capacity as an author and once and future library worker:

Read whatever the hell you want.

I cannot impress enough on you that the “important” books aren’t important if you don’t jive with them. The popular books, the canon, the whatever. Read what you want.
