IMLS funding supports the interlibrary loan program at my small library, awarding access to larger collections across the state. This is devastating.

As a small town librarian, loss of IMLS funding means loss of interlibrary loans for our patrons. I'm heartbroken and disgusted.
Libraries are vital, providing access to information, technology, and learning. Cutting IMLS funding threatens these services, especially in underserved areas. Library funding isn’t political—it’s an investment in education, opportunity, and civic engagement. #LibraryLove #ForOurLibraries ala.org

Homeschooling has been catching some heat lately, thanks to media coverage and the Trump administration. Please know we're not all Christian Nationalists.

Socialization, naturally. And any quizzing. Back off, Becky. They aren't beholden to you.

In case you were wondering, spending your weekend sorting thousands of Legos doesn't distract the mind from the shitshow that is the U.S. It does, however, make one question their life choices which led to this point.

If you’ve already started calling it the Gulf of America instead of the Gulf of Mexico, you should have no trouble with someone’s preferred name and pronouns.

Libraries are great for the books, sure, but it's also nice to have a quiet and safe space to sit and think- a place where no one is trying to sell you anything.
