I will cut adrift—I will sit on pavements and drink coffee—I will dream; I will take my mind out of its iron cage and let it swim—this fine October.

~ Approved by the government as “informational materials” exempt from tariffs.

~ 100% of profits go to the American Library Association to fight censorship.

~ Pre-orders close on October 15, and we’ll never make more after that.

A unifying color (and/or symbol) has been integral to movements against fascism across places and times. It allows us to know we are indeed a very big we. And to telegraph to others our beliefs in freedom and fairness, prosperity and peace. It makes us a team folks want to join.

Why yellow? ⬇️

Anat Shenker-Osorio @anatosaurus.bsky.social · 2d

Great question! It's something to which many of us have given tons of thought. Yellow is hi contrast, hi visibility symbolizing optimism used in other pro-democracy movements around the world, from Hong Kong to South Korea, Ukraine, & Thailand. Other colors already too tied to set things.

A video making the rounds online claims to show a pregnant woman saying her doctor told her to leave Texas before giving birth and that she’s “starting to regret the way [she] voted.” But it actually comes from a satirical account: www.snopes.com/fact-check/p...

Posts claim video shows pregnant woman regretting Trump vote. Here's the truth

The woman in the video claimed her doctor said she had to make plans to leave Texas as she neared birth.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

I've got a YouTube channel with well over 1,000 sunrises from the local beaches over the past 6+ years.
But I have to say, last Friday's sunrise had got to be in the top 10 of those.
If you want 45 minutes of beauty, watching the sun rise in real-time, here's a link: youtu.be/YXV7x4gkZtM?...

World's first sunrise, daily. Relax and watch the day dawn: 10 October 2025.

John Oliver sounded the alarm this week on how secret donations to presidential libraries provide cover for bribery. We couldn’t agree more.

It’s time to close the library loophole — and you can help.

Read this story and much more in our secrecy newsletter, The Classifieds.
