Publishers Weekly called today, asking questions about the Must Read Magazines contract situation. Did a 38-minute interview w/ them. This story isn’t going away. ICYMI: I’ll fight just as hard for the rights of the kid entering the industry as I will for my own. Don’t f**k w/ artists’ rights.

My kid has started a Letterboxd list called Killer Sweaters for films where the killer wears a great sweater and they've asked me to throw it out to Bluesky for more because "that's the kind of thing those weirdos like to do"

I know I'm writing from a biased & privileged viewpoint as a bookseller but SO many young people are telling me everyday they're getting back into reading. And they want to read the good stuff, the nuanced stuff, the beauty. And they want to talk about it with other readers. And take notes by hand.

I’ve got a redecorating cat as well. He tries to pull down artwork he can reach and screams at the television. Ironically named Teevee. Here he is laying on a box of recycling. It can’t possibly be comfortable.

*sigh* Triscuit woke me up at 2:30am because he had a burning need to… take down the white board on the bedroom wall 😫😅 WHY NOW? Did he just realize it was there and it offends him???? We may never know… he wandered off after some cuddles to eat snacks (but I am still awake lmao)

There is literally no elephant in the picture. Not a single one. No elephant whatsoever.

You're using alt text on every post, and that's awesome. Now stop using fake bold and italics. But why? you ask. Because they aren't words anymore, they're strings of special characters. To someone using a screen reader, they often sound like this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ip3y...
