This is a very trans & intersex book & I feel like it didn't get a lot of reviews.
Ping me for a review copy!

Just got some books from the warehouse of my academic library and wow this one is fascinating, why aren't people reading it. 2 volumes of interviews on US #kidlit publishing in the 80s. Authors, illustrators, at least one art director, etc. Just read a bit so far, but super revealing details.

The thing with someone who habitually takes credit for other people's accomplishments is that when they say something that looks cool, interesting, etc. - you *cannot* know it was first said by them.

"Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #234,827!"
I don't have any fun factoids about this number and I somehow feel like I should... (I generally don't have fun factoids about numbers tbh)
It's not a prime, it's divisible by 449.

I played so much Pizza Worm multiplayer, mostly with my brother. It's like a Snake game, but you can turn at any angle, and that makes it approximately 1000 times better.
I think this small game came out of the Finnish demoscene??

Hungary right now!! Anti-government demonstration and solidarity with victims of child abuse.
(There is a recent ongoing scandal that so far resulted in two high-ranking Fidesz cronies resigning because they signed a pardon for a convicted abuser, probably due to his govt connections.)
