I wish that we could use markdown or something in Mastodon.

I've started a book club hashtag master list, because I'm a busybody. Feel free to let me know about any hashtags you know of that I've missed or that you want to start up! Also let me know if you want your handle to be associated with a certain hashtag, as its leader/organizer. #sffbookclub #wicdivclub

halfway through _The Obelisk Gate_ (the second in the Broken Earth series) and it's so good

most people know how awful BMI is at actually measuring physical health.

but quite literally, BMI answers the question "if the human body were approximated by a square, how dense would it be" and I find this explanation hilarious, amazing, and sad.

If anyone has any nominations they want included for the August #sffbookclub, please send them along. I am going to put the poll up tomorrow (July 3rd).

Quote from a friend of mine by the name of Lyndane:

"A dragon is just a wyvern-taur."

@catoutofbed Korg is the personification of non-toxic masculinity and I will brook no argument on this matter

Thor: "Okay."
Thor 2: I uh stopped halfway through
Thor Ragnarok: /everyone needs to watch this/

It pains me to say this, but Benedict Cumberbatch is a /really good/ Doctor Strange in small doses.

I made a master post for the July #sffbookclub book! https://fediverse-reads.dreamwidth.org/933.html

The #sffbookclub read for July is River of Teeth by Sarah Gailey.

If access is an issue, DM me--we've had a little luck with crowdfunding.

#Pride Month is over, but I want to leave y'all with one thought about visibility.

When I was young, I didn't know what #bisexual meant—thought I was a broken straight.

I want people to see me and know that being bi+ doesn't have a damn thing to do with your ability to love as you will, including the possibility of being in an awesome relationship like the one I've had for over twenty years.

I want some young bisexual to know that and not beat themselves up for decades. I want them to love themselves. ❤️
