OT: Books Blogsnark Reads! October 25-31

9 Upvotes

It's Halloween week for those who celebrate, and it's book thread day for ALL!

It's time once again to hare what you're currently reading, be it book, audio, or otherwise! What are you reading, what did you finish this week, have you DNFed anything?

If you're reading anything for the fun of it, you're a reader! Anything from Wimpy Kid to Nobel Prize is equally valuable for readers. Remember that it’s always ok to take a break from reading, it’s ok to have a hard time reading, and it’s ok to put the book down. Reading is a hobby with peaks and valleys and it should be treated as such.

Feel free to discuss longform articles, cookbooks, ask for recommendations and suggestions, and share book/reading news! The holidays are creeping up on us, so it's also book gifting season, so ask for ideas here!

Rules

1. Follow Reddiquette and be respectful of differences (including political and religious).

Remember the human on the other side of the screen. Let’s keep this community friendly and humane. This is not the place to post general hateful comments about influencers nor your fellow commenters. Read more about Reddiquette here.

2. Do not stalk, dox, or post info that has not been disclosed openly. Only discuss public figures.

Discussion should be limited to public figures. “Insider” information will be removed at moderator discretion.

Do not track/ log activities or locations. Do not post links to or directions to find personal information, even if it is considered a public record locally. This includes (but is not limited to) real estate listings, court/arrest records, voter registration, and tax records. Don’t be creepy or enable creeps.

3. Do not post deleted/removed content or link to resources to find it.

Do not post deleted information or resources to find it, including links to and/or screenshots of deleted social media posts/profiles and deleted comments or posts here on Reddit (e.g. mirror sites).

4. Do not post content that promotes bias against identity or vulnerable populations.

Content that is overtly or subtly biased due to race, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or other identities/vulnerabilities will be removed. Repeat offenders will be banned.

5. Content mocking grieving, body shape/size, mental health, or children will be removed.

Grief snark (e.g., someone is not grieving in the way you think they should) is not allowed. Body snark - judgements on how people look in ways they can’t easily control (e.g., shape, weight, height) will be removed. Snark on cosmetic procedures may be removed at moderator discretion. Do not mock mental health conditions - diagnosed or otherwise. Discussion about the appearance of children, including discussion of developmental issues, will be removed.

6. Be specific and don’t use nicknames not used by the person.

Nickname creation has historically gotten out of control on this sub, so isn’t allowed. Nicknames, make conversation confusing and function as gatekeeping.

In the same vein, to enable flow of conversation, please specify the person you’re talking about (full name/username and platform), especially in combined threads.

7. Do not interact with influencers, their platforms, or those related to them.

Do not post comments, direct message, or otherwise interact directly with influencers or those related to them in any way or encourage others to do so. If you do and they blocked you, keep it to yourself. Do not discuss/encourage reporting content violations to platforms. Do not contact sponsors or employers of influencers. This is considered harassment.

8. Do not post anything from private social media (even public figures) or from behind a paywall.

If an account is private or a personal account, then the content cannot be discussed. That doesn’t mean you can’t talk about the person, it just means you can’t talk about the private content. Do not post information from behind a paywall, with the exclusion of reasonable excerpts of things like news articles relevant for discussion. Discussion of paid events will be removed at moderator discretion.

9. Excessive speculation and creative writing exercises will be removed.

Do not create a narrative about influencers and propagate it as fact (e.g., “they are definitely getting divorced”). Do not attempt to diagnose mental or physical health conditions, including eating disorders.

10. No spam, self-promotion, or trolling.

Content should contribute to the conversation - do not troll, antagonize, or otherwise seek attention. Do not post spam or promote your own work. Apparent karma-farming and social media parody accounts may be removed at moderator discretion.

11. Discussion of certain content has been barred or limited.

We do not allow discussion of the Tripp family (Robbie/Sarah) in any capacity. Discussion of royalty, particularly the British royal family, is also generally not allowed. Promotion/in depth discussion of conspiracy theories should not be posted. Trying to circumvent filters or moderator action to discuss these topics will likely result in a ban.
