also: the library! it will still be free! at the library! you can use a variety of apps/sites to access! the library! you needn't go to a location! to enjoy the library! if you request the books of authors at the library it helps us! if you check them out it helps us! and also the library! LIBRARY
I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

after all, who could expect audiences to suspend their disbelief or let go of what happened in a previous james bond film? the role having famously been played by the same man for the last sixty-plus years-- [hurried muttering from offstage] sorry, what? you said SEVEN men?
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

So I wrote two books. both are set in London, in winter, in 2021. One is an alternate future history, a sparse love story where a spad and civil servant work on Brexit together and fall unwillingly in love; the other is a sports anime, a post-pandemic f/f romance. here they both are:

in the US the # of active scuba divers (~2.5 mil) & trans people (~2.8 mil) are quite close. & if you shut off the propaganda tap, tbh i think the average voter cares about us roughly as much as they'd care about scuba divers? perhaps a bit mystified, but not looking to destroy any lives over it
whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win
Earle-Sears ran what felt like 12 billion ads about how much she hated trans kids and I didn’t hear a single pundit say she should stick to real issues that affect real people.
