At lunch @hilaryredmon told me that the most sought after job in her NJ suburb is the ONE spot at the local indie bookstore for a high school senior. PLEASE someone write me a YA novel about two teens' cutthroat competition for that job. #mswl

There is a 17yo boy on Reddit asking advice how to ask out a trans girl at school. It is absolutely heartwarming, and also he’s a really good writer? dg.reddit.com/r/relationship… pic.twitter.com/CC3SnNssL7

Here is my controversial Star Wars statement: I would love to read a teen Poe Dameron YA in which he breaks hearts across the galaxy while longing for his OTP, but I don't think I'm the person to write it. We need #ownvoices for that. So somebody write that, and I'll read it.

Come at me with this book, YA writers #ownvoices. #mswl

Okay, here we go. Delightfully bizarre stories about the British Public School Monolith (Chandos focuses on 1800-1864, Gathorne-Hardy starts w St Peter’s, York Minster, founded in 625. Not a typo.)

BUCKLE IN.

Nicole’s whole thread here is a #mswl btw.

Good Girls Revolt is 100% my jam as a TV show and subject matter (#mswl) but geez is it hard to watch with how the world has changed even since it first aired.

Imagine being part of a middling channel USA drama and then suddenly marrying into the British monarchy this is so wild like actually who has the rights? This isnt made for TV shit this is a cinematic securing of the bag
