@KylieScottbooks Skin is on my perpetual reread list - snarky librarian and a perfect blend of darkness and humour for the win!!!

The expression “call a spade a spade” comes from the work of Plutarch, who originally wrote “call a fig a fig & a trough a trough.” Figs & troughs were crude slang for the Vulva, so what Plutarch meant was “call a c*nt a c*nt”. When Erasmus (1466-1536) translated Plutarch’s work & changed it to a garden spade to avoid embarrassment.

I’m crying and humbled and just amazed at the strength and love of this little girl.

The 7 year old girl who kept her hand on her little brother's head to protect him while they were under the rubble for 17 hours has made it safely. I see no one sharing. If she were dead, everyone would share! Share positivity...

@GoodwynPub My son had these kinds of episodes all through childhood. We tried several different solutions and nothing worked - he continued to catastrophize .
He was just diagnosed with ADHD at 16 - intelligent kids are often able to cope so it gets missed. FWIW. 🤷‍♀️

@greenxbby If you like romance thrown in there, Linnea Sinclair’s Gabriel’s Ghost is awesome - military sci fi, smuggling, politics with well formed characters and a fabulous romantic core

In this hellscape bizarro world where social media and the MSM can so often focus on the worst in the world, thank God for moments like these that show us the best of what we are capable of. There’s lots here to feel angry about too, but for a moment let’s just embrace the good.

Content creator MrBeast goes viral after paying for 1,000 surgeries to cure blindness in patients around the world.

He also gave away $10K to a select number of patients, $50K to an incoming college student, and a new Tesla to one patient who has always wanted a car.

@caj_writes Hey there. I read all voraciously and write romance, fantasy, and a smattering of sci fi. Hello!

Dear @elonmusk

I’m going to be blunt here.

You broke Twitter.

User moral is the lowest I have ever seen.

None of us can see their followers anymore in the timeline.

People are frustrated.

People are leaving.

Twitter will die if you don’t address this.

[C.P. Lopes @peruzzi_lopes]

@julianne_munich Sounds like a great challenge! Don’t underestimate the power of someone believing they can “change” someone else, and pretending the most innocuous behaviours are actually subtle cues that he’s a “good” guy. Good luck!

I love this so much. I’ve always been a fan of Annie Lennox - this just makes me appreciate her music more, and get excited for a new generation of artists!These boys are so talented. Also, the dance moves are top notch!
