My February reads have a pretty good mix going on 💛

Hot take: knowing your Hogwarts house because you grew up with Harry Potter is not the same as supporting the author today. I can have my nostalgia and acknowledge the author and series have a LOT of issues while still knowing I'm a Hufflepuff.

Sam Nordquist didn't deserve this. Sam was reported missing on Feb. 9, 2025. Over that period of time, Sam was tortured and sexually abused repeatedly. Five people were charged with murder. Sam was transgender. This is what hate does. RIP Sam.🙏🏽🕊😪 www.ctvnews.ca/world/articl...

As it's both #LGBTHistoryMonth (UK) & #BlackHistoryMonth (US) there's double cause to celebrate Stormé DeLarverie, the butch dyke who may well have started the Stonewall uprising. Storme didn’t acquiesce to police arrest but fought back, reputedly crying out, "Why don't you guys do something?"

For those who claim they can "always tell", cis women who A) are over 6ft tall, B) look more like their dad, or C) happen to like short hair exist. Y'all freaked out over Bluey being a girl and Ruby wearing a dress. Y'all would be the same people calling Peggy Hill not feminine enough.

If you call the Gulf of Mexico "Gulf of America", I don't want to hear a thing about a new name and pronouns being too difficult. On the flip side, if you actually learn people's chosen name/pronouns when presented with new information, but it's still Gulf of Mexico: we can be friends.

Currently obsessed with A Love Song for Ricki Wilde. I read Seven Days in June a couple years ago, so I was already on board for romance but maaaan I'm so curious about Ezra's backstory (I just got to chapter 13, no spoilers please) #booksky

The government may be trying to remove DEI but my home library is continuing to diversify because they're my dollars and I do what I want 📚

When they say they want to deport our dangerous criminals, all I hear is how they've been trying to classify queer people as "groomers" for years. You really think they're not gonna find excuses to put citizens on those planes, you're fooling yourself.

Working on diversifying my reading further. Last year I made a point of reading more queer books, this year I'm trying to sprinkle in more poetry and short stories.

The Idle King @theidleking.bsky.social · 01/02/2025

I'm half convinced the outrage at DEI is displaced frustration with companies saying they're hiring and not actually hiring or letting AI screen the applicants and qualified people not being able to get through due to wording.

Discrimination has never worked before, and its not working now.

It's an image of the Toil and Trouble Media bookcase with a message that reads, "Always remember when someone blames DEI, they are saying only white men should be in control. Toilandtroublemedia.com"

When I say I love faerie books I mean Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr. The Scholar and the Last Faerie Door by H.G. Parry. Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett. Song of the Huntress by Lucy Hounsom. I want to feel like the author did their research and didn't just go "boop, fairy"

Sometimes I wonder if the reason I so chaotically refuse to fit the gender binary is because of the level of "this is for boys, that is for girls" and it's literally deodorant

For the love of God, if I see one more ',grow your own food' hot take. Sure, for occasional fresh herbs or a few veggies. Nobody is growing to their entire caloric intake in an apartment or on a balcony.

Currently my drag will be what it needs to be for me to enjoy. My choice of gender expression has already been deemed a political statement and that's exhausting enough sometimes.

Due to climate and population, America can't grow everything. Due to resources, America can't make everything. American made products tend to have imported components. Participating in the global economy isn't just for the fun of it, it is a necessity. Tarrifs are not sustainable.

Buying banned books or potentially banned books is a good way to protect them. Read them. Support your local library but private collections help protect books when public libraries are told to purge.

Most of my family has been here since this country was just a collection of colonies. My family has fought in almost every war this country has fought. They've been farmers, mechanics, teachers, soldiers, etc. When I say we need to do better, it is out of love for what this country could be.

When gender is more of a vibe, you start to realize the ones obsessed with it are the ones screaming to define it. The stricter you define gender, the less people fit it.
