I'm really gonna need people to stop trying to insist that we need to just accept and lean in to generative AI in creative spaces Authors/artists/creatives are more than capable of simply not using AI I promise, I love to support genuine art! But the second I suspect AI, I'm out 🙅🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

Needing extra kitty cuddles, but my cat's sleeping. However, when I'm sleeping she feels the urge to knead my face. Not sure what it all means, but I'll just say my cat loves me and leave it at that #catsky

Some of y'all are really out here reading problematic books and then trying to gaslight everyone else into thinking they are the problem because they don't support those choices. You can 100% read/promote whatever you want, but don't start getting mad when people stop trusting you 🤷🏽‍♂️ #booksky

Jeremy 📚 @jdkizzle.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

You can argue that you don't need to read those first, but to do so you have to acknowledge that they are related! Otherwise WHY WOULD YOU FEEL THE NEED TO SAY THAT? 🤔🤔🤔 #booksky

It's so strange that I keep seeing people talk about how Alchemised is "so removed" from HP, but these are the same people who keep bringing up comparisons between it and Manacled/HP.

I am reading so slowly lately 😩😩😩 I know it's largely because I haven't had any time to read... But it's making me feel like I'm in a slump and I'm sad. Let's just not count July.... It's fine #booksky

I keep seeing people admit and accept they aren't a safe space for any marginalized voices just so they can continue to read/promote problematic authors... They went from feigning ignorance to embracing being bad people!? Why..? I feel like they've completely lost the plot #booksky

I really hope I see WAY more posts about immigration, pride, and Juneteenth than posts about this next potential TT ban.. for obvious reasons.

#booksky confession: If I start a book and the prologue/first chapter is confusing, I'll often read it, and then once I understand enough of the plot/world-building I'll go back and reread the intro with an informed perspective. Does anyone else ever do this??

Today is Loving Day Loving v. Virginia June 12, 1967 Only 58years ago Our "History" isn't as old as they want us to believe I love that I was born on June 12. As a biracial, black man in America, there's so much weight behind today With all that's going on, it's important to acknowledge our history

I... I think I'm confused. People think Harriet Tubman wasn't real??? Because she changed her name? Like... What? I know sooo many people who have changed their names and/or use nicknames... Are they not real? Is any of this real? I'm so confused... Let me just-- I'm just gonna go

Genuine #booksky question: What do you think reading diversely means? Because I just saw someone post, bragging about their diverse books, but not one book was by a Black, Brown, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, minority or marginalized author. Am I missing something? #diversebooksky
