Since we're all divesting from our billionaire overlords... what a great time to switch from Goodreads to indie-owned (+ much cuter, cooler, social) Pagebound?
Hi #booksky 👋 we're Pagebound, a new social reading site (think: if Goodreads and Reddit had a baby). Come read with us !

a childhood favorite! I watched the film from the '70s a lot growing up and it's perfect to me--hope this works as a miniseries too. It's rather light on plot for 4 episodes.

people, you have the chance to put my book ahead of Olivia Nuzzi’s on the bestseller list. put aside all other considerations and think how objectively funny this would be. #1, that Mountain Goats guy. #2, Antivax Man Has My Heart. funniest list of the century. We can do this if we try

A singer-songwriter friend would like people to know that while boycotting Spotify is great, it was also 16% of their income that is now cratering. So if you're cancelling Spotify, please pair that with buying music, merch, or live tickets directly from your favorite artists

The Demi Adejuyigbe comedy special on Dropout is incredible. Not a single line wasted. Whoever did the lighting deserves a raise. There's more I want to say, but the less you know going in, the better.
