Glad you asked!!! Look for The Book of Notable Sandwiches: A Lunchtime History of the World next summer!!!

1) it’s great the times painstakingly attempted to document how much this had grown 2) and also how do you do the article about HOW this is happening without addressing WHY? What CAUSED this uptick? Did you try to figure that out?

have you read kj charles

me luxuriating in my reading list

One of the most disconcerting moments of living in this timeline of the world in the U.S. is that A LOT of people in this country keep acting like there's a special line that needs to be crossed for fascism to *arrive.* The reality is that we are CURRENTLY living under Federal fascism. NOW.

trans people: gender is mostly vibes and chemicals. we're just trynna be happy in our bodies legions of cis people: i will devote the rest of my life to trying to destroy you with fire

try grae bryan's vampire's mate series!

the book of notable sandwiches is going to have fifteen illustrations in it and theyre BEAUTIFUL and im so EXCITED

yeah. i did kinda stop reading solely historicals because i got so freaking tired of earls and the regency in general

There are types of guy everywhere for those with eyes to interact with them lol

“how much shit can you deny yourself? cheese, gender, the fuck’s next?” truly humanity is a rich text

I can't divine anyone's sexuality or gender from a distance and neither can you. That being said you might like the Penalty Box series by Ari Baran if you can dig sports romance. Hold Fast by Sebastian Nothwell has some wild panache. For flair, try Daniel May's Hanged Men series.

reading this, recalling how quickly the killing of Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman slipped out of the news

if royal navy sailors count, check out alex beecroft. elin gregory's on a lee shore ditto (pirates). harper fox's brothers of the wild north sea is a viking and a monk.

my need for fancy coffee has gotten so extreme it may be a form of nesting behavior
