Just finished this fabulous book by @goraina.bsky.social and @scottmccloud.bsky.social .. WOW! I’ll need to buy a class set when it comes out in April! This book is amazing for so many reasons. It will inspire every reader to be vulnerable and take risks when creating their own comics,

“We have to tend to the wound, while at the same time, we have to move and use our muscles to create autonomy and change. Don’t let it beat you. Human beings have no one else to lean on but one another.” -Jason Reynolds @sharemylesson.bsky.social

When things look dark and grim, it is comforting to know you can always turn to books, books and a good friend who can make you laugh. We did that today! @aaronsbooks.bsky.social

President Biden tried to raise the overtime threshold, which is the point where salaried workers are entitled to earn overtime pay. It would have helped millions. A Trump appointed judge in Texas just blocked it.

Please tell me you see which party is actually fighting for the average worker.

Rep. Dan Goldman: "Matt Gaetz is currently under an ethics investigation that was started after a serious criminal investigation for sleeping with underage women... The idea that you would put somebody who clearly has such a vendetta against the DOJ *in control* of the DOJ... is scary."
