It was good! I think it would w been perfect for me as a young adult/teen. The audiobook is also so well produced, really made the experience!

Thanks for this! I agree, it’s a reminder that even when I’m down, I find solace in the stories others weave. And I love that for myself :)

Erin Roberson @erinroberson.bsky.social · 25d

It’s definitely a learning experience… cause I was certainly feeling down but as it turned out, I still went back to my books when I needed them.

#TomLake was an easy read but I’m grateful for that because I couldn’t put it down. I needed to know how it all ended, & boy was it worth it. It felt so real & brought up some raw emotions I didn’t expect. It’s entirely worth the journey, & I could easily see it become a series/movie someday.

Just when you think you’ve fallen behind… #Storygraph reminds you you’re still making progress. It was a hard month for me & I didn’t read for a good chunk of it. But somehow I still managed to finish 2 books & maintain my pages read! #SeptemberRecap #BookSky #ReaderSky

StoryGraph monthly recap for September showing 750 pages read, 2 books finished, with an average rating of 4.0. Tom Lake (4.5 stars, fiction) and Gender Queer (3.5 stars, non-fiction) were the 2 books finished this month, all in audiobook format.

The theme for this today's #BlueSkyArtShow is #angles. This is the side of the museum of Glass in Tacoma Washington...

The museum of Glass in Tacoma Washington is appropriately made of glass. The mirrored exterior reflects the sky beautifully, especially with the white puffy clouds that can often be seen in Tacoma. The sharp angles of the mirrors create interest in this structure.

If we’re going to have Chinese style autocracy in the US, I’d also like the renewable energy infrastructure, high speed rail, electric vehicles, investment in science, and good food.

oh well, onward and upward

REPORTER: Mr. President, my condolences to you, Sir. My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. [unintelligible]
How are you holding up over the last day and a half, Sir?
TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there, you see all the trucks? They've just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they ve been trying to get, as you know, for about 150 years. And it's gonna be a beauty. Absolutely magnificent construction. We just started, so it'll get done very nicely.
And it will be one of the best anywhere in the world, actually.

Numerous journalists and writers purged today for posting factually about a slain regime ally, a bomb threat at the DNC HQ, 6 HBCUs closed due to bomb threats, shots fired at the Naval Academy, and that's just today.

when society asks me to have sympathy & decorum for people like charlie kirk, i think of the lists read out on trans day of remembrance

part of the life's work of people like kirk is both to make those lists longer & to pack as much suffering as possible into those of us still living

I hear the echos of history with each conservative outcry. I fear Charlie Kirk could be the next Ernst vom Rath.

Remember the West Wing episode after Bartlett was shot and CJ listed *all the other people* shot that day and closed with “lest anybody think a gun would have prevented these crimes, let’s remember that the President was shot while surrounded by the best armed bodyguards known to man.”

At least three teenagers were in critical condition after being shot Wednesday afternoon on the grounds of Evergreen High School. The suspected shooter was among the three.

It’s all an attitude of being fine with authoritarianism, just not in their preferred cities. High crime rates in Republican-led states isn’t a gotcha! It’s a tragedy and a canary in a coal mine about what systemic racism and poverty beget. Do better, y’all. Not one city should be occupied.

Saeed Jones @theferocity.bsky.social · Sep 6

When I see people online, even in jest, suggest that people living in Republican-controlled states should be abandoned because of their politicians, I feel a deep heartache. New York CREATED Donald Trump and none of y’all are ever talk about it the way you disparage Alabama or Mississippi.
