As the person who does most of the VM socials, let me tell you this: bluesky is absolutely the worst platform of the bunch for slapping random adult content warnings on innocent posts to bury them. Would super appreciate if you share the post below like hell, and donate a fiver!

I just noticed that Summer Sons by Lee Mandelo is 2.99 on both kobo and kindle. It's one of my most favorite books. It's a Southern gothic featuring a haunting, the horrors of academia, the asshole stage of grief, the asshole stage of "wait, am I gay?" And cars.

IMO the weird exception some supposed leftists seem to make for condemning-the-theft-of-labor-except-art-lol-steal-that-shit is just a weird intersection with puritan "if you enjoy yourself, it's not a real job" brainworms.

"fun" job = member of the leisure class (ROFL) = fair game. Somehow.
Honestly, people calling creators the "petite bourgeoisie" makes me want to snap.

We're working folk. And we work really hard. For next to nothing.

We're not lounging around eating bonbons. We're trying to figure out how we're going to be able to pay rent next month.

when the real story is the alt text we read along the way
THREAD.

3 years ago, with no warning, a brilliant orange farm cat wandered over from the draughty barn where he had been living, in rural Cornwall, and decided he wanted to live with us instead.

We decided to call him Jim.

This is the first photo I took of him, on that night: December 1st, 2022.

Most publishers (there are always exceptions) decide whether or not to buy a second book (or a third etc) based on how the previous book did. So when you pirate a book in most cases it’s less about the money you just stole from both author and publisher it’s about the future book you just killed.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

youngest daughter and i are both trans and we have a funny morning ritual where i put my T-gel on and she hides under my bed covers wailing about not letting the “boy goo” touch her. i lean saying “boy goooo” and she threatens to get me back when she gets her girl goo

simple trans family joys ❤️

95% of authors are not making a living through book publishing. The public needs to understand this.

procrastinating getting started on work this morning so let’s have story time!

last week i had my first personal experience with the general lowkey dismissal, minimisation and invisibiling of trans men in progressive spaces, and in a way i really wasn’t expecting—through my daughter’s art class!

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺
