Monthly pledges help ease the instability that comes with disability and having no fixed income or healthcare, though one-off support also helps immensely.

This support helps me stay connected, survive, and continue participating in mutual aid […]

<p>Last night, I finished reading the Jeff Flake/Rob Hart collab DETOUR. I did enjoy it, despite its flaws, but I have a few caveats:</p><p>1) It is the first in the series, and apparently they did not promote it as such, so many readers were irritated about the abrupt ending. </p><p>2) The story reads as if it is being optioned as a TV series, and apparently, it was.</p><p>3) The characters are laughably one-note creations. Ex: I am a smart but awkward female scientist who lacks confidence. </p><p>4) The story is not only clichéd and burdened by stereotypes, but also spends a very long time to get to space and then spends almost no time there. </p><p>You may enjoy this, too. It was fun, very light fare, and honestly, sometimes you are in the mood for that. </p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://fedigroups.social/@bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span> <a href="/tags/books/" rel="tag">#books</a> <a href="/tags/bookstodon/" rel="tag">#bookstodon</a></p>

Based on Polish fairytales, so reminiscent of Katherine Arden's The Bear and the Nightingale. Fairly simple YA story with one plot line and few surprises, but well realised and doesn't take the easy way out.</p><p><a href="/tags/bookreview/" rel="tag">#BookReview</a> <a href="/tags/books/" rel="tag">#Books</a> <a href="/tags/bookstodon/" rel="tag">#Bookstodon</a> <a href="/tags/sff/" rel="tag">#SFF</a> <a href="/tags/youngadult/" rel="tag">#YoungAdult</a> <a href="/tags/romantasy/" rel="tag">#Romantasy</a></p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://aus.social/@wildwoila" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>WildWoila</span></a></span> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://wyrms.de/user/wildwoila" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>wildwoila@wyrms.de</span></a></span><br></p>
