Libraries ARE RADICAL. Supporting them is revolutionary.
They are one of the best things we've ever created and maintained in society and we should all protect them fiercely.

This is terrifying and WRONG
Closing the libraries... while they remove all kids' books with queer characters... in the entire state.

I don't even know where to start.
1. In Tennessee, public libraries have closed for up to a week to facilitate a Trump-inspired book purge.

Tennessee Secretary of State Tre Hargett (R) has ordered most of the state's public librarians to remove children's books with LGBTQ characters or themes.

Just quick holiday shopping tip: DO IT NOW & if you can during a store's off hours. You'll get better service & have more selection than when it gets crazy later AND making the crazy times a little less crazy means better service then too!

This book was really good - but it did make me cry.

I do love epistolary novels.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

unclear to me why i haven't seen a single elected calling for impeachment today 🤷
We've all said this for years, but it's absolutely essential: he must be impeached and removed from office. Any "leader" who's not on board with that is no leader at all.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

What would excite me is DEI and fair wages.
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.

The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.
