all the hoods have come off lately
despite all your objections
see the Klan standing there stately
populate Epstein's Admin

no, I will never understand,
nor will I ever forgive,
how you all elected this man
for as long as I shall live

it is beyond all comprehension that anyone could see this

and think good
and think yes
and think anything other than no no no
but you do not see
I push the images towards you
they were alive, they are no longer alive,
look
see
and you push them away
the way someone pushes away an unsatisfying meal,
picking out what you want leaving behind what you don’t
look
see
it is beyond all comprehension
so you do not comprehend
to do so would mean you’ve been tricked, duped, made a fool
we have embarked on a journey to save our country
yes
yes
yes
you would rather believe a lie than be wrong
I would rather not know the truth but can’t look away
because in the secret space of my heart, I believe god sees
and if he sees this, he sees me

I love to take a 15 minute (okay, maybe longer...) vacation every single day!
What is your favorite reading vacation? Or something new you have learned from a book today?
Me? I learned a new adjective - execrable while enjoying a story set in Styria.

Hooked by Asako Yuzuki

This had me squirming a few times with how uncomfortable I felt...yet the ending was a bit of a letdown. Overall, a good read with lots of drama, interesting characters, and beautiful prose. I'll be thinking about it for a while.

3.5/5

#OTD in 1937, "Their Eyes Were Watching God" was first published.

Written by Zora Neale Hurston, considered one of the pre-eminent writers of twentieth-century African-American literature. #LitSky #BookSky

This is a side-by-side split image honoring Zora Neale Hurston & her seminal novel Their Eyes Were Watching God. Left panel: A classic black-and-white photographic portrait of Zora Neale Hurston, the renowned Black author, anthropologist, and Harlem Renaissance figure. She is shown in a head-and-shoulders close-up, facing slightly toward the viewer with a warm, confident, and radiant smile that reveals her charisma and vitality. Hurston wears a dark, wide-brimmed hat tilted stylishly, which casts a subtle shadow and frames her face. Her dark hair is visible beneath the hat, and she has expressive eyes, full cheeks, and a composed yet lively expression. The image has the soft, grainy quality of mid-20th-century gelatin silver photography, set against a plain or lightly textured backdrop, emphasizing her dignified and engaging presence. Right panel: A vibrant, colorful book cover illustration for Their Eyes Were Watching God. The design features a bold, folk-art-inspired graphic style with a dominant green and black color palette. At the top, lush green leaves and branches spread across the sky, with small birds or insects amid the foliage. Below, a stylized, silhouetted or semi-abstract depiction of a figure gazing upward surrounded by tall grasses or organic forms in shades of green, gray, and black. The title "THEIR EYES WERE WATCHING GOD" is prominently displayed in large, white or light blue block lettering near the bottom, with "ZORA NEALE HURSTON" credited as the author. A quote from Alice Walker appears at the very bottom: "There is no book more important to me than this one—Alice Walker." The overall aesthetic is earthy, poetic, and evocative of the novel's Florida settings, rural life, and spiritual undertones.

#DarkAcademia romanticises books, old libraries and university life. But what happens when learning becomes an aesthetic, reading turns into a competition and exhaustion becomes something to admire?

Agatha Christie (b. #OTD 1890): the most widely published author of all time, outsold only by the Bible & Shakespeare.

Her books have sold >1 billion copies in English & another billion across 100+ languages. "And Then There Were None" is the best-selling #mystery novel of all time.#LitSky #BookSky

Fun lack-and-white photograph of an older Dame Agatha Christie seated at a round table in a book-lined room, She wears a dark blazer or jacket, a string of pearls, and has short, neatly styled gray hair. In front of her sits an open typewriter with a sheet of paper inserted, and she holds additional typed pages. Towering dramatically on either side of her are two extremely tall, precarious stacks of hardcover books forming an arch-like frame around her head and upper body, with titles visible including several Agatha Christie novels (such as "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd" and "And Then There Were None"), mystery anthologies, and other volumes. Christie is looking up to the top of book stacks. Behind her, a bookshelf holds neatly arranged large books. The composition humorously emphasizes her prolific output as the world's best-selling mystery writer.
