We may need a decentralized library where we house the banned books in our homes and share with others. It was the original Amazon model before they started their predatory practices of putting their own vendors out of business.

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.

Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control
The "bluesky is an echo chamber" think pieces that keep popping up really tickle me because they show how certain people genuinely believe social media should be for debating and arguing and not talking about the things that make you happy and sharing art with the world.

It’s not hoarding if it’s books. It’s building a personal library.

If you find yourself wondering if a new book will solve all your problems today, the answer is yes

I guess I like monster sex, sapphic sex and circumstances where men have to prove their loyalty to the women they desire. If the men in your romance doesn't make me envision 90s r&b singing in the rain crying to take him back I won't probably read it.

The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election 👀 #BookSky #BlackBookSky

For no particular reason and with no particular goal, what books are you most worried about preserving over the next four years?
