No bad. It's so hard to read tone online.

He's being sarcastic/joking. He's definitely not an antivaxxer.

But yeah, there are a lot of people out there who think the symptoms of the shots are worse than the virus(es) and just... No. They are not.

FROM WHOM???? *cries in my entire life has been one long international crisis and I've never known a moment of political peace*

Asking for ALL of us!

it's also, at its core, a love story? And women have been the highest consumers of romance as a genre since before time began, so i really don't get all the confusion with this one.

That was how I felt about 50 Shades when it first came out. Like, all other issues (there are many) aside, the writing is just bad?

🤷‍♀️confused.
Some of my book club ladies liked it too (which I'm very glad about). I guess it's just very much not for me.

I picked "Trust" for my bookclub last year because it won the Pulitzer and it was soooooo boring. I genuinely do not understand what anyone liked about it.

I'll put in a good word for "Laziness Does Not Exist" by Dr. Devon Price. It's a great place to start unpacking some of the really harmful assumptions we hold about ourselves.

Yup. I just saw @swordsjew.bsky.social's post about it.

Someone in the comments pointed out that you NEVER see articles about why men like girl-on-girl (not that we're talking about exactly the same thing but...)

Also, to provide a counter narrative to my own counter narrative. I went off my antidepressants the same day I got my combo shots and WOOF. Bad choice.

She took breaks, but she never really stopped being our weird little goth vampire queen.

I think I originally got through Memnoch, but that was it. It's time for a re-read!

Shut the front door, there's a GN???
I haven't read most of these since Middle/High school (and I'm pushing 40) so maybe it's time for a re-read. At least of the less bonkers ones.

Lestat holding up the concept of physical sex: Does this spark joy? Sadly, it does and I miss it...

I'm not vaccinated against Hills! Science has given us no tools in the fight against Hills!
