It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Imagine praising a book in 2025 for being "sparse"? Look I enjoy sparse prose as much as the next, but we've been in a decades long Sparse Race of prose that you can increasingly just inhale like a delicate mousse and at some stage we will have to start making adjectives cool again

This is awesome!
Is it just me, or do weedeaters sound distinctly Slavic? For real.

This is a subskeet of like 6 essays I've read recently but "I'm angry the author wrote about different kinds of experiences and ideas instead of writing a book that reflects my exact feelings and preferences and beliefs back to me" isn't really an interesting critique.
🤣
If you're looking for an excellent fecking book to read, I'd highly recommend Holly J Wilson's KITTENTITS. I can't possibly say enough good things about it.
No spoilers, but it may not be for the faint of heart. Definitely the best book I've read in a good long while.
One of the best first-person novels I’ve ever read.
Aw, you are very kind, Casey--thank you ♥️🙏
♥️🙏😻
This book actually exists, and it gives me hope for the world (based on the title and cover alone). Thanks for giving me hope, Books on the Square in Providence. @hollywilson.bsky.social

Oh wow, thank you! You are very kind!!!!!!! 🥹♥️🙏
Yes, my groupie! 😆
@olgaz.bsky.social wrote a great review of Kittentits for The Commons that made me think about my own book in new ways. Thank you, Olga!
Olga, thank you so much!!! This made me think about the book in ways I haven't before, which is the best feeling. Thank you ♥️♥️♥️
Haha, it's like the one thing my brain can do. But you are very kind--thank you so much for reading!

I would like to start a book club to talk about this book and this book only. #booksky
