Need a little something for your #TBR? Ai Jiang shares 5 books at Big Indie Books that share themes with #anOtherNemesis (coauthors Eugen Bacon, Angela Yuriko Smith & Maxwell I. Gold. It is SUPERB!) bigindiebooks.com/2026/02/26/ano… @AiJiang_ @EugenBacon @AngelaYSmith

@Alayanabeth @evenstvr and bam, I'd be a gamer.

@evenstvr It's so little to ask! A chance of doing great deeds, sure; but open plains, and streamsides, and Strider by the fire at dusk seem like perfectly reasonable expectations

all i’m asking from that new lord of the rings game is that i’m allowed to peacefully wander around on my horse. perhaps pick some flowers. perhaps even give aragorn a smooch

@ieatzebra I mean, I'll trade the broach for a library but if that's my fate sign me up.

What we’re not going to do is talking about Duchess’ mom like that

@ieatzebra We've become too comfortable with crtl+alt+delete and crtl+Z

Watching these makeovers and the girls that cry over getting their hair cut I never understand. It’s just hair it will grow back.

@ieatzebra I don't really get it either, but I think it's because it's such an instant shift, probably the only thing someone might change regularly (as opposed to say wardrobe doesn't cost much to try a new style at home) and can't be reversed immediately like washing off a makeup test.

@DR3ADlady I just want you to live in a world where you can exist, create, and communicate in all the ways and with whoever gives you happiness and fulfillment. You are the sweetest, strongest, soul.

@DR3ADlady I -really- wish this too. At this point I feel like the world is just waiting to see what the Orange thing will do when he clearly doesn't care about anything but his agenda. Step up. Stand together. You can help a population and have a bonus of knocking another ego down too.

@DR3ADlady I don't know if this will be of any use, but something I heard of from a protest here in solidarity is that they were handing out tokens with known victims names for people to hold close/show to give them representation. Silly and symbolic but it touched me.

@DR3ADlady I hope you're able to get this.

@DR3ADlady Oh sweetheart! *hugs* First, I'm sorry I didn't have it written down. I know the world must feel so heavy. But I know I'm grateful this day exists as you are a gift.

@Jpullen19 That cover 😍

Pub day for Beastly has arrived!!

@HelenaLahnstein @LostHistory9 Also lighting matters. And media is disgustingly ageist. Men get 'refined' women get 'old'. Not to mention in between she's done what? A couple films and a couple plays- the later being incredibly demanding in their own right?

@LostHistory9 I think that’s a bit tasteless. Maybe she’s tired. Maybe she has stuff going on. Maybe it’s just lighting or make-up. I think she’s beautiful and aging is perfectly fine! It’s not her fault the show is abysmal. I’m sure we all have worked in horrible jobs for various reasons.

This is what starring in two seasons of Rings of Power will do to a person. Amazon, have some mercy on your actors. Cancel the dumpster fire for the sake of their health. For goodness sake, Morfydd looks like she's 36 going on 50.

@InDeepGeek FINALLY! News on thissss!!!

I can't tell you how exited I am. The Tourney at Harrenhal has so many mysteries ... The Knight of the Laughing Tree ... the Year of the False Spring ... Howland/Ashara! All will be revealed this summer. I am SO. EXCITED! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@justfairyvi OH sweetie! I'm so sorry! I'm not on this site a lot. I didn't know. But YOU ARE AMAZING and deserve to be celebrated EVERY day!

another bday but this time i have even less people by my side, it's kind of sad, haha

I appreciate hearing from @RepGolden re: ICE, immigrant+human rights, accountability, public safety. One small thing. What I reached out independently of other protesters/petitions was about the pleas for international help of Iranians being massacred since house is 1st step.
