Please remember that for every VE Schwab and Stephen King, there are a lot of banned Black, queer, and POC writers you've never heard of, to whom it is maybe not a badge of honor but a denial of their voice. Being banned is not a marketing opportunity, unless one is already rich.

One of my favorite relationship archetypes in books is "person who thinks they're too much" x "person who thinks they aren't enough." Not just for romantic relationships, but for friendships, or siblings, or enemies. There's just so much there. And I will include it in as many projects as possible.

I miiiight be doing something cool with some of these authors soon — and also imagine Etaf Rum’s books here. My copy of Evil Eye is currently being pushed onto a friend so we can discuss. ANYWAY, it’s not a giveaway, BUT proceeds from this *will* be going to Gaza. More on Oct. 1!

It's time to uplift Latine books and add them to the TBR! Here are ones I've read and enjoyed in various genres and age groups. I'd love to hear other folk's recommendations! #booksky

Finally made it out to Habibti to hang out, drink some matcha, vandalize my books, and talk about Macklemore📚 Thanks for having me y’all, and thanks to bestie Leah for being my personal photographer for me and my book babies!

Durham NC holds itself up as a pro-immigrant jurisdiction. But its magistrates and judges repeatedly refer people facing low-level criminal charges to ICE when they're not required to—even for offenses as minor as a single trespassing charge. @twitterlessabe.bsky.social @indyweek.bsky.social #ncpol

Durham Judicial Officials Are Unnecessarily Putting People on ICE's Radar for Low-Level Crimes

Durham judicial officials flagged people for citizenship checks when they didn’t need to, landing some in ICE custody, INDY found.

For @motherjones.com, I looked into how Meta could be using disabled people to promote its Meta glasses to the masses. As one expert told me, “companies have used accessibility...as a Trojan horse for a tool that poses significant privacy and security threats.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Is Meta using disabled people to promote its glasses?

AI glasses are a double-edged sword for disabled people, who face unique risks from surveillance.
