On August 15th, some friends and I are going to 2nd & Charles (specifically 2nd & Charles) for the big Penny-A-Page sale. While there, we are obviously getting some books ourselves, but we are also going to be looking to get books for the library. Would you like to help us?

Hello threads fam, to those who don’t know, I recently became a librarian at a small rural library in AL. While we do have budget, there are a lot of programs we want to do. Our stacks also need updated & replaced. I’d also love for us to be able to diversify our titles.

Honestly I probably should be more professional on here but I think this is the only place left where everyone I know isn’t here and I can just vent into the void lol

I’m so tired of living and being places I’m not wanted. I’m trying so hard to find a job I can survive on so I can live on my own but it’s not working. I’ve put out thousands of applications and idk what to do anymore. Sometimes I genuinely feel like it would be easier on everyone to just disappear.

What else should I look into? Honestly I think big brother and traitors are my tops, but I could go for any of them.

I wish men would just be honest with me for once. The guy I was into lives about an hour away. I asked them out for today and they said that they couldn’t because they were going to be at work. Well flash forward to today, and guess who just popped up in town.

Does anyone have any decent jobs hiring? I’m desperate for something in an office or remote and more secure/steady. It has to be full time. I can’t keep going where and how I am. I live in Alabama but I’m willing to move.

Over the years I have acquired a lot of books, and many of them have been series. Some I haven’t read at all, and some I just haven’t finished. Here are just some of the many series that I want to do my best to get completed this year, or at least caught up to the most recent book that is out.

Just had a guy say they didn’t want to see me anymore or be friends with me because I talk to them too often……the last time I spoke to them was a week ago. 🥲 welp ok. Back to the drawing board I guess. Honestly, this is how and why I read so many books.

Gay men are some of the most mean, judgmental, and awful people. If someone’s looks determine you can even be friends with them, you’re an asshole.

I just found the cutest little two bedroom that would be amazing. Would be a fixer, but it’s got a nice size bedroom, a second one that could act as an office/candle room, kitchen with laundry, nice size living space for the library and normal things, screened porch for the plants, and yard space.

Also it’s wild to have so many people following me here but I honestly think only about 5-20 are actually people I know. I think it’s become an emotional barometer because of that lol.

Frustrated with myself because I thought I made a good new friend, but I got too excited and ended up scaring them off. Sigh.

New updated list of all current 24 Twisted Tales. These don’t need to be read in order, but if you are like me & need to read things in order, they are in full release order. 3 more are confirmed, with “No One Gets Left Behind” releasing in April 2026. The cover has yet to be revealed.

I can’t stand men. Finally went out with someone and opened up about how hurt I’d been in the past & the constant ghosting & getting stood up. Then on our second meet up that he suggested he left me sitting there no response. I waited 30 min and left. Then he texted 3 hours later and said he forgot.

Welp the fourth guy in a row has made plans to see me, and after talking for a bit seemingly great conversation, for the fourth time in a row, has canceled on me the day before. I get that things happen, but at this point is there something wrong with me? Like genuinely.

I know authors push their B&N sales, but I wish more authors would start publicizing their titles on @libro.fm more too. They have really good deals and preorders, & could be a major player against audible as they grow. Not to mention every one of their sales goes back to support indie bookstores.

Like we said yesterday: speak out and you’re fired. The Trump administration has made it clear, if you report wrongdoing, you’ll be fired. A senior Justice Department official, Emil Bove III, told staff he was willing to ignore court orders to push Trump’s deportation agenda.

June is #audiobook month. Thanks to places like @libro.fm and @netgalley.bsky.social, I have read pretty much only through audiobook for the last six months. I’ll never get tired of a good audiobook.

Today was a mentally rough day, but we were slow enough at work that I was able to put on a book for most of my time. I’m honestly really proud of myself for starting and finishing this entire book today. It was so good too.

I’ve been doing a 30 day pride post challenge on Insta posting 30 queer books by 30 authors. Getting dumped, workload, all the pub bookmail, and general stress of my candle pride booths has definitely made it a struggle. I’m behind but I’m catching up. Someone make me finish this challenge. 😩

Welp the guy I spent the last 4mo talking to dropped me. apparently he’s been seeing someone else. to top it off FairyLoot screwed the Human Rites release sold out of before they even sent codes. So I didn’t get the last book in the series that I’ve been collecting for 2.5 yrs. Today is not my day.
