Thrifted a U.S. history book from 1928. The very last paragraph lists America’s biggest challenges. Nearly 100 years later, we’re still waiting for ‘future citizens’ to solve the exact same problems. What are we even doing?

I’ve been playing around with this idea of creating an organized anti-fascist movement for bookworms and nerds like me:

Educated
Warriors
Organizing for
Kindness and
Safety

EWOKS 😁

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

This book has one of the nicest bookish scents I’ve ever experienced. Perfect fragrant blend of paper and ink! 10/10 💙📚🩸

Most of my books are ebooks, but the physical collection is growing.
Currently reading Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix.

It was a very small Christmas book haul this year, but I’m super happy with the one I got! I’ll be moving this to the top of my 2025 TBR!

One more read until my goal is met. I feel like I’m cutting it close this year.
What was your goal? Did you meet it? Exceed it?

Just finished The End of October by Lawrence Wright. It’s terrifyingly plausible, deeply researched, and eerily relevant in a post-pandemic world. But man, it was dense. #booksky📚💙

0nly two more reads to go until I hit my goal of 100 books this year. I was on a good streak until early November when I learned I would be laid off work mid December. I’ve found it’s hard to read and job hunt at the same time. I’m just thankful for books that offer an escape right now. #booksky📚💙

Yooo! Apple Music’s year end replay just dropped. I did not expect some of the results, but I absolutely love that new @gaslightanthem.bsky.social album! #music #applemusic #replay24

Our poor librarians hate this

Anyone else’s TBR pile getting out of hand? This is just on my Kindle! At 100-150 book/year, It’ll take me at least 6 1/2 years to get through my unread library of ~1000 books, and only if I don’t buy more 😰

My latest rec:
The Queen by Nick Cutter. Dang, this was a creepy one!
Read it if you like mysterious events mixed with gratuitous body horror, all crammed into a timeline of one day.

Someone on my team keeps doing this to all of the binder clips.
-Aesthetically pleasing? ✅
-Kinda looks like an X-Wing? ✅
-Incredibly inconvenient when you have a stack of papers in your hand? ✅✅✅
