HEARTSTOPPER X LITTLE WOMEN Family’s everything. Especially when your older sister develops an eating disorder. When her sister Ronnie goes to uni and falls ill, it’s up to 17 yo Thea to get her back. But what do you do, when you’ve been left behind? #PitchDis #YA #CON #LGBT

Barnes & Noble is withholding initial support of debut hardcovers til they find evidence it's worth stocking in their stores. They'll be focusing on guaranteed sales from paperbacks. A middle finger to debut authors esp if they're midlist & marginalized. Get mad, y'all. 1/?

I know the show’s already being written but I just saw a TikTok about having a Black Annabeth — daughter of Athena goddess of weaving — be great at braiding her own hair and now I NEED it like that’s exactly what we mean by reshaping a role instead of just colorblind casting!!!

Never watched Dr Who in my life, but might just watch it for Ncuti Gatwa. He’s just ICONIC.
Life = one long panic punctuated by cups of tea.

The British urge to have a cup of tea after brushing your teeth & then immediately regretting it @SoVeryBritish
So I recently found out I'm #ActuallyAutistic. I'm relieved, but I also feel like I'm grieving. Anyone else get that? I've started a blog to record my thoughts on this process. Please share if you're interested! wordsofthewanderer.co.uk/adv… #AutismAcceptance #AutismAcceptanceMonth

Well. After 21 years of wondering why life never seemed to work for me, I now have an answer. So to all those who called me a ‘freak’ or a ‘machine’, let me enlighten you. I’m actually autistic. And yes, I’m proud of it. #ActuallyAutistic #AutismAcceptance #AutismAwareness
