Issue 1
The first issue of Heartlines Spec contains the challenges, and joys, and frustrations that come from long-lasting connections. It’s a mother you never understood, a friendship that’s fierce but changing, the quiet gratitude of sipping champagne with someone you love. All the stories and poems withi..

Literally a response to someone who reviews books in the New York Times. That’s where we are with this policy.
It would be nice to be able to post links to a New York Times book review of a romance novel.

Nana of the Shire @Sunshines_HeartI’m sorry you feel this is a place to discuss issues related to your “work” that some of us who prefer to keep our phones and devices family friendly find unsafe. I’m a first waver who voted against porn on this site. My grandchildren often play with my phone. Nothing personal to you or anyone.03:36 PM - Feb 19, 2023

The responses to the concerns about Spoutible’s content policy are evenly split between “OBVIOUSLY romance authors aren’t in violation, quit being hysterical” and “We don’t want smut-peddlers here, get your own app!” The policy is so vague even its defenders can’t agree on what it means.

I think Courtney Milan and Olivia Waite's concerns about the TOS here (among others in Romancelandia) should be aired and discussed.

All I’m asking people to understand is that you can prohibit adult content with clear language where the answer to someone’s question of “can I post this?” is not “just post it and see if you end up getting banned!”

Looking for #ValentinesDay reads of a #Sapphic nature? Queen of Swords Press has you covered! Avoiding romantic tales and looking for #aromantic protagonists or just plain fun stories with minimal romantic context? We got that too! #QueenofSwordsPress #smallpress https://weightlessbooks.co...

Whatever you think of adult content on this site directly, this is not good language, it’s not good policy, and it is extremely fixable. @cbouzy I am happy to help try to come up with a policy that provides clear guidance, meets general aims of external bodies, while preserving necessary discussion.

The music from original Super Mario still makes me feel hella anxious.

Preeti Chhibber @runwithskizzersWhat video game music makes you THE MOST anxious when you hear it?09:31 PM - Feb 18, 2023
I think mine is a tie between Battle of Hoth from Star Wars N64, the BONG BONG Dawn of the Final Day from Majora's Mask, or the Guardians music from Breath of the Wild.
Special mention for Skyward Sword Silent Realm music tho

I had some big unruly thoughts about how this rising tide of AI is born out of our fetishization of THE IDEA, and how this also ties into puritanical thinking and fascism and -- well. Anyway. Give a read if you like.

What It Feels Like To Die by Warren Benedetto
“Mama?” Madelyn asked. “What does it feel like to die?” “It’s like falling asleep. Except when you fall asleep, you wake up in the same place. When you die, you wake up in a Rejuvenator.” “Is it scary?” “Not at all. You don’t even remember what happened.” “You don’t know how you died?” Madelyn’s mot..

Bee & Brittle Bush
I captured this hard working honey bee collecting pollen on a brittle bush flower. Taken with the D850+Sigma 150mm macro non OS at the time.
Have fun all.
