Happy 3 years to my beautifully sad, depressed pop album Midnights. Please enjoy my ranking. Hard to choosing a better song.

Happy to see the live debut performance of Hit Different at Chicago N3. #midnightslor #3yrsMidnights.

At this point it’s been said in a hundred different ways, so I think people are being intentional about not getting it.

I have a nuanced take on the CO-lor arguments happening right now but idk if this app is the place for it. ultimately for now I’m comfortable saying a few things 1) if that’s what you expect the ending of the eras tour to be, I encourage you to mentally prepare to be disappointed.

Octavia Butler being a time traveler or seer, will forever be a hill I'm willing to die on, because there's just no way. Parable of The Sower was published in 1993. Look at this date. #BlackBookSky #BookSky

Yup wear a mask to salt the vibes!!!
Many of us are echoing @timothysnyder.bsky.social's lesson in On Tyranny, "Do not obey in advance.”

A no less vital admonition that deserves attn:

STAND OUT

“...without that unease, there is no freedom. The moment you set an example, the spell of the status quo is broken, and others will follow."

time to bring back one of my favorite threads :)

i remember hearing on an episode of The Archers podcast that this shot from YNTCD might be a reference to the book Oranges are Not the Only Fruit by Jeanette Winterson. i own a copy, so i decided to investigate and i was shocked 🍊

I had to work through so much internalized homophobia to get here and I got absolutely hammered for it when I reached my conclusion.

But then I learned to stop giving a fuck about what most ppl believe bc unpopular opinions don’t make them wrong
It is increasingly clear that most of the lgbt people who are extra vocal about gaylor being invasive or wrong are themselves in a repressive environment where group speculation would be super harmful and terrifying. It’s projected protective reactions and I have so much empathy for that.

Never had a good reads but I love Storygraph!! I can set goals and I love the graph breakdowns.
Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. A better alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform. And before y’all start, you can transfer all your Goodreads data to Storygraph so you literally have no excuse.
