Have I read all the books I own? No. Will I continue to buy more while also re-reading my favs? Absolutely. I live in a lawless land. #booksky #books #reading

Would you read this book just based on aesthetic?

The real world sucks right now and has the same plot to the dystopian book I’m reading. The only difference, the book has a final chapter whereas the world never seems to end #dystopia #booksky #reading

Thank you for your service

Can someone who’s a mom just reassuringly tell me that you voted for her? I really need to hear that now #KamalaHarris #democrats #vote

Trying really hard to be okay with sitting in silence. The problem is, I don’t know how to turn off my thoughts

I love that this is your villain origin story

McKenzie Kooima @kenziekooima.bsky.social · Jan 21

Then you’re doing it right. Take it as a badge of honor

I’d rather pick blades of grass in -17 degree weather than go over to anything Meta related. Payback is a bitch Zuckerberg #tiktokban #tiktokrefugee

I need someone to fix this timeline

I’m mistakenly reading a dystopian book. Every page I’m like, “Is this thing about us?”

I could be a productive member of society today OR I could disassociate into the pages of a good book. Tough decisions are being made #booksky #books #reading

Begging my Chinese spy to steal my data cuz they will do a better job at being me. They’re ambitious, have motivation and went out of their way to do something. Couldn’t be me. #tiktokban

I’m tearing up 😢 this is all I want

McKenzie Kooima @kenziekooima.bsky.social · Jan 11

Oh of course! I would never get a pup without understanding the weight of that decision

McKenzie Kooima @kenziekooima.bsky.social · Jan 11

Thanks. I do appreciate the support

McKenzie Kooima @kenziekooima.bsky.social · Jan 11

See this is why I came here. Everyone I know would just tell to seek therapy

McKenzie Kooima @kenziekooima.bsky.social · Jan 11

Now this is creating a picture and a story. This is one that I could get behind

Can’t decide on how to fix my depression by buying another book or getting a dog. But also, should I be limiting myself? #booksky #books #help

Are people still interested in receiving PR packages in 2025 or did we stop that in 2024? #booksky #reading #author #books

I used to think I was the dumpster fire that plagued America. Now I see that the fire is just America and I’m plagued to live in the dumpster

Do I think buying books will help me get through this silly little life? Maybe. But it is a good distraction from the horrors of waking up each day #booksky #reading #books

Today a nun in Italy has been arrested for her connections to the mafia?? That wasn’t on my 2024 bingo card but it’s the most Italian thing I’ve ever heard #news

I was so locked in today to start a new book. It’s been perfectly placed on my reading chair so I couldn’t say no. Nothing happened but like I’m super aware of it #booksky #books #reading
