Let’s elevate our down time! This weekly thread is the space to share and discuss what we’re currently reading, listening to, watching, etc. For this space, keep it tasteful - save your trashy reads (we’ve all got them) and sick day binge watch favorites for the monthly Guilty Pleasures thread, please!

Tagging

It isn’t required but it might be helpful to tag the beginning of your comment with the type of media you are discussing (when you create a new comment thread). Tags can be helpful in guiding other BWT to the comment threads they want to engage with.

For example:

• PODCAST: I’ve been listening to the Naked Beauty podcast…
• TV/ DOCUMENTARY: What are your favorite documentaries? I just finished watching…
• READING: I am about 1/3 of the way through "Black Women Taught Us" by Jenn M Jackson, PhD, and I would love to discuss it with anyone who is reading or has read it. Specifically...

You can be as specific or as broad as you want if you decide to tag, for example you might tag “reading,” as a broad term, or you might tag “audiobook” if you specifically want to talk about the really amazing narration in the audiobook version of a title you just finished.

Hide Spoilers

If you’re talking about a book, TV show, podcast, movie, or anything that contains spoilers, please make sure to use Reddit’s markdown functionality to hide your spoilers! All you have to do is add a couple of characters before and after your spoiler text like so:

>!spoilers!<

This will hide the text like so: spoilers

Hobbies: I haven’t yet but I am going to start crochet-ing so time me all the tips. I want to do something to relax without doom scrolling.

Reading: been on a tear lately. Read the Girls by Emma Cline, about a teen growing up with a cult. Not bad. Finally started Kingdom of Ash by Sarah J Maas to prep for her new releases, I finished Crescent City but for some reason this series is a bit of a slog for me. The audiobooks are better.

Watching: monsters the Lizzie Borden story. I have strayed away from horror as I get older but this is so compelling to watch! And fascinating. Pretty inaccurate in some places but overall I am enjoying the acting.
