My reading goals for 2026 include only reading books I already own (not difficult as I spent WAYYY too much money on books last year, rip my bank account) or can borrow from the library, and focusing on quality over quantity/output

Whoops, I forgot to add the last slide: the José Esteban Muñoz epigraph that opens the anthology and sets the tone for the pieces inside 🖤
Amplitudes: Stories of Queer and Trans Futurity "The future is queerness's domain. [...] Some will say that all we have are the pleasures of this moment, but we must never settle for that minimal transport; we must dream and enact new and better pleasures, other ways of being in the world, and ultimately new worlds. Queerness is a longing that propels us onward, beyond romances of the negative and toiling in the present. Queerness is that thing that lets us feel that this world is not enough, that indeed something is missing." —José Esteban Muñoz, Cruising Utopia: The Then and There of Queer Futurity
