Geek With A Book

Tired GenX internet Auntie who reads and says fuck a lot. Demi, Pan & AuDHD. Orgasmic synesthete (flavor = color, intense flavor = orgasm). Let's cuddle with my pets and drink tea in my library while we plan our next fight for justice.

Dear straight cis men: Pick a restaurant. Don't make it fast food, don't make it cheap, don't make it coffee. Just pick a restaurant so she doesn't have to do one more research and planning task that week. That will gain you more points than anything else. I promise you. Just. Pick. A. Restaurant.

It's all cops. All. Police. The nicest police officer you know will still shred a homeless person's tent when they know the homeless person has nowhere else to go. It's. ALL. Police. Build a better system and eliminate the police.

Paper Doll Effect: When you realize the person you are on a date with asks 0 questions about you as a person, only talks about themselves, and only cares about what you can do for them. You are a paper doll for them to attach their needs to with temporary tabs. You are replaceable. #kinkdating

wHy ArE yOu So mAd?! wHy Do YoU hAtE mEn?! I don't hate men. I hate men who do this and the people around them who keep enabling the behavior.  ISTG a good Dom in this area for me is a fucking pipe dream.

There are times when I want to learn more why people do what they do, but I could never help anyone fix it or or be a mental health provider because I would not be able to restrain myself from calling out assholes.  "Wow, Kyle, that is a lot. Have you tried not being a douchecanoe?"

For all the #authors on this app: A friend self-published their life story on Amazon and it's awful. Layout mistakes, missing text, bad cover. She pulled it pending corrections. They don't have a lot of capital and need beginner resources. Help a new author out with links to editors and such?

Brian Thompson's entire family can get fucked. The families of every c-suite exec at every insurance company should all be urging the execs to get a moral fucking center before more Luigis appear. Brian was a monster. Luigi did the right thing.

I, understandably, read a lot of books. If I see someone on social media that reviews books and they still support, J. K. Rowling, their opinion is immediately void and worthless. I do not take seriously the opinions of people who still support a transphobic human rights abuser.

The Dems cannot offer an alternative to Trumpism or fascism that will work because they are still tied to shareholders who will not allow a class/capitalist critique or a party wide agenda that is explicitly focused on reining in their shareholders or affecting necessary reform or change.
