I spend too much time on social media, but somehow I always seem to skip Bluesky. What's your favorite part of the platform? What should I look out for?

Best line from a book club scam about The Stone Catchers: "Your novel's exploration of justice and the 'stones we choose to catch' is exactly the kind of morally complex discussion our members thrive on." The stones we choose to catch??? I'm putting that phrase on all future marketing materials.

Biggest personal problem: when writing contests announce the winner before letting everyone else know. Biggest national problem: the rise of #fascism and incompetence.

I keep thinking about people saying, "well, technically, he is allowed to..." whatever it is. Here's the thing: not everything is made illegal or legal for leaders, but we do expect our elected officials to act within the spirit of the law, to hold democracy high. The whole system breaks down 1/2

I'm currently reading Frederick Douglass's "What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July?" for today's class, and today's religious right seems to live in the entire section about the church's responsibility for continued enslavement. 1/3

They made a public announcement of the winners hours before letting people know. I've never been a part of a literary contest like that. I've always heard, "sorry, not you, but we'll announce the winners soon." Then they do. Literary contests aren't televised. There's no reason to go public first.
