Relevant to my interests (also LOVE the @tessadare.bsky.social cover in the article!). Hopefully, it catches on and becomes a destination for romance authors to be supported outside of Kindle publishing. #booksky #sapphfic
Harvard Square has a new hub for romantic reads. Owner Rachel Kanter stocked the Brattle Street shop with all kinds of romance books, which have exploded in popularity.
Lovestruck Books brings romance to Harvard Square
The shop is a romance reader haven with nearly 12,000 books from dark to sports romance. And a connected George Howell Coffee shop has eventual plans to transform into an evening wine bar.

Does anyone use a hypoallergenic (to cats) kitty litter that they recommend? I think the dust from our clumping litter is giving one of my kitties a rash.

omg, this is official?? YES!!! this is my district! I’d stopped checking the results because I was too sad, and then lo and behold.
Knowing we’re no longer represented by Steele is an immense relief. I’m gonna choose to believe the voter postcards I hand-wrote helped, just a tiny bit.

Archaeologist: we’ll need a social history of cups, as well as a project charting the perception of their fullness, both geographically and through time, to better understand the social meaning of the cup.

Apparently my alma mater became the biggest feel-good underdog story of the college football season, so Loki and I got up early in California to cheer for THE Hoosiers take THE win over A college from Ohio.
I love that you can troll a whole football rival with indefinite articles. It’s so nerdy.

There are a lot of reasons to go see WICKED on opening weekend, and yes maybe it’s weird that my particular reason was Jonny Bailey sharing a screen with a goat. Just let me have this, ok. We all deserve to fly. 😭

It’s been almost a year since I was active on any social media, and … tbh I will probably disappear from this one any minute now! But I want to keep my accounts working just in case.
