Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who has contributed, signal-boosted, or both. If we can get to $5K, we will have more or less completely covered one month of expenses (rent, bills, food). That should -- fingers crossed! -- bridge the gap to SDI coming online.

What do you do when the world seems darker & less joyful by the day? In my case, you build a Little Free Library and try to make at least one more source of light. The community response has made it worth every minute spent on this library. Books are magic ✨️ youtu.be/eDitA1yeUkA

@barnesandnoble.com you said if the public wants AI books you would start stocking them??? Let me tell you, unequivocally, that we DO NOT want them. Additionally, you have gatekeeping ability in this case, fucking USE IT. Keep storytelling human.

The cognitive dissonance of witnessing fascism in real time, trying to fight it locally, and also needing to decide what my daughter is going to have for her bento for school today is damn near driving me insane. Thank god for books and book content. Truly the only time I can take a deep breath.

Thank you so much Krystle 🥹 It's been a point of discourse for about a year now but it feels like a lot of discussions don't take the next step to talk about the root cause or what we can do about it...so I hope I can offer a few of those here :)

Over consumption, Anti-intellectualism, Trope-ification, Shallow reviews....all of these have been plaguing the book community recently. What if I told you that WE are the problem? The good news is that means that WE can also fix it ✨️ youtu.be/iNDME24ia5I

IS READING DIVERSELY REALLY THAT IMPORTANT? || What does it do for us?

Taylor | Maed Between the Pages @maedbetweenpages.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

The last time we had this discourse, this video (🔗 in next section) was my contribution to the topic, & I think it's still very relevant. I'd like to postulate that what you choose to read DOES matter, but not for the way others will perceive you. It matters because of what it can do for YOU. 🧵 4/5

Taylor | Maed Between the Pages @maedbetweenpages.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

While this is a beautiful thing, reading publicly online is extremely different from reading privately. The Observer Effect is in full force: just the act of being perceived changes the thing itself. It adds a new perspective to this (usually) private hobby, & it takes some getting used to. 🧵 3/5

140

Taylor | Maed Between the Pages @maedbetweenpages.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

I feel like the community goes through this discourse in waves every few years, but this round seems particularly far-reaching; probably because so many more people are reading and, as a result, there are many new voices in the online book space. 🧵 2/5

120

Taylor | Maed Between the Pages @maedbetweenpages.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

Recently, I've been seeing a lot of discourse about peoples' reading choices. Pressure to read certain things or read quickly, criticism of both engaging and not engaging critically with what you read, and do our reading choices really matter at all? What is the point of this hobby of ours? 🧵 1/5

Was lisening to some old Dessa yesterday & this hook seemed exceptionally pertinent: "I found your pale-faced blue-lipped God beneath the kitchen table. Starving and eating paper. He showed me what you wrote and what you'd asked. Love, nothing can live on prayers like that." - Doomtree, The Wren

Taking a break from doomscrolling for a few days has really helped my mental health. Finding the balance between staying informed & keeping myself sane has been,& will still remain, a challenge, but moments like this help infinitely: Tsundoku Club's November pick & Sumire frolicking in a corn maze🍂
