Los Angeles, despite what its haters say, is a reading town, from its bookworms to its script-readers. It's full of great independent and time-honored bookstores that are almost as plentiful as the inspired authors this city has spawned.

Incredibly insightful thread

What we're seeing in the "don't sign up for protests" discourse is what Paulo Freire described as the convert's failure to trust the knowledge of the oppressed. As the convert tries to stand in solidarity with the oppressed, they refuse to let go of a world where they were the authority by default.

If you claim to be boycotting, you shouldn’t be pirating and then loudly chatting about the content, making sure many people see it lol

I think this kpop semi boycotting strat is so dumb bc it still puts enjoyment of the media over actually protesting

I am so, so sorry for the pain you're going through. It's so much worse when it's a friend, especially so connected to things we love. It's a betrayal and it sucks so bad.

This thread is genius and I love it.
And y'know what, sometimes you just don't trust the restaurant this particular group picked so you get something you don't actually want but can share with the table so no one notices you not eating

Reading the audiobook of A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping on my commute this week and it's giving me so much joy that I've actively had to resist just marathoning the entire book in one fell swoop

I've had so many terrible emotions about Worldcon and Hugos this year, and the slate of apologies encapsulate how out of touch and callous the entire system is.
You cannot subcommittee your way to basic respect. A host's job is not to tell staff to do things then wash your hands of any follow up.
