Books by Autistic Authors Featuring Autistic Characters! #ownvoice Boozy Bookish Thoughts 2023-04-28 | Hello my boozy bookish friends! š¹Before April ends I want to spotlight some #actuallyautistic voices who have written about their experiences or have written autistic characters!

Books to Topple A Dictatorship (Spoiler: One of them already has) Boozy Bookish Thoughts 2023-02-24 | Hello my boozy bookish friends! š·In honor of the anniversary of the People Power Revolt here in the Philippines, I decided to do a book recommendation video featuring banned books.

Kinda a serious topic but I hope I made it interesting still. In the video I promised several links so please find them below:Free ebook (Mijares: The Conjugal Dictatorship of Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos): http://rizalls.lib.admu.edu.ph:8080/ebooks2/Primitivo%20Mijares.pdf Chronology of a Revolution (a website dedicated to 1986 People Power Revolution in the Philippines): http://edsarevolution.com/chronologyA Brief History of Protests in the Philippines (Full disclosure, this is an article written by me for my full time job. It is relevant to the topic, Iām not just plugging it to improve my metrics lol) : https://www.amnesty.org.ph/campaigns/protect-the-protest/protest-history-ph/Thank you to everyone for listening and remember to continue to fight for your rights and claim your freedoms!

Why Content Warnings Are Our Friends Boozy Bookish Thoughts 2022-10-25 | Hello my boozy bookish friends!Kinda a serious talk today - why and when content warnings are important.For those who opted not to watch the video for their own mental safety but want to know a summary: I talk a bit about my own mental health and how content warnings help keep me safe when I am feeling fragile. While we are not responsible for the safety of others, we can be helpful and give them the information they need in order to make informed decisions for themselves. I also talk about when I believe content warnings are necessary and when they might not be necessary.This video is hardly edited cos honestly it was very hard to shoot and hard to edit. Everything is hard right now, honestly. But this channel is important to me and I want to choose to spend time and energy here. I just hope everyone understands while I do my best.Cheers,J#books #booktube #mentalhealth #disabled
