I do art, read books, and yell about government

Healthcare provider turned paraplegic patient, I became homeless with kids but we are now housed!

Follow along for the plot✨️

📚Reading:
Wordslut by Montell
Horrorstor by Hendrix
The Hike by Magary

I'm Reid!
29, ND, Queer, doing my best

I worked bedside nursing in covid units and in-homes until a car accident paralyzed me in 2022

We were evicted and I became homeless with my kids for two years, but we are now housed!

I rediscovered reading in recovery, and I welcome you along the journey📚
I've been reading more than ever because my life (and the world) feel like they're falling apart.

I would love to hear others thoughts on Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng by Kylie Lee Baker
I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it, despite it not being a genre I'd usually reach for.
The perspectives of those most impacted by hateful rhetoric during peak pandemic (not over) were aching A+

#Slewfoot was an incredible read for Fall, a review to come!
I'm listening to #theappeal by Janice Hallett, and I find the methods of storytelling so interesting. I love reading through the 'evidence' with the agents working the case, and their occasional chats regarding it.

The audiobook narrators ( #alexfinke and #natashasoudek ) for #playnice by #rachelharrison are INCREDIBLE. The way they are able to portray the particular emotion these characters are all feeling, it's just unmatched.

What are the scariest books you've ever read?

Here's what I've read recently-ish. Looking for some new stuff.

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

As Netanyahu addresses the United Nations in New York City this morning, the world recoils in horror at the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Critical part of the President's new $100,000 charge for H1-B visas: The Administration can also offer a $100,000 discount to any person, company, or industry that it wants. Replacing rules with arbitrary discretion.

Want visas? You know who to call and who to flatter.

#dropouttv is the only streaming service I pay for, and in this moment, because of #wealwell , I feel compelled to suggest others do the same

Very much enjoying #abeautifullyfoolishendeanvor #hankgreen

33% and the only thing I've not enjoyed, is that I can't understand the book if i listen faster than 1.75x when I don't have my copy in front of me 🫠

My review of #katabasis on #Fable cannot possibly cover everything I loved about this book. Every book of #rfkuang that I pick up (which is all of them), I am taken aback by how the worlds and characters build upon themselves in such a natural flow. Her writing is a well polished mirror to humanity.

Yet another wonder from the first individual to make me understand "auto-buy authors".

I want to blow through it but also savor it slowly, which do we think will win out?

This audiobook is a raw and vulnerable expression of a life one didn't get to choose.
Check the trigger warnings, but I can't recommend supporting this individual more. We gained from their media presence while they lost so much, and here they share again

Dipping my toes into my first ever #emilyhenry book, thanks to my local #littlefreelibrary #freelibrary #lfl

I see her recommended all over, but I've never picked one up before. I figure this is a good break from the spooky and scary I've been reading lately, so we're giving it a shot!

It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

Over halfway through #bloodoverbrighthaven and I'm so thoroughly enthralled by the magic system and the commentary on all too familiar political systems
