I suppose I should do an introduction thread to pin (mostly bc I somehow just learned you could pin a post here). I’m Cass, late 30s, black biracial disabled lesbian who loves to write and thinks way too much about tv, film and books. Although I’m actively only watching a few shows, I dip into

There are patterns of pain and anguish and despair in history but my gosh there’s community and hope and organizing in it too. It’s part of what keeps me going these days.

Years ago when I was on SNAP (we called it Link) I would tutor my hairdresser's son in exchange for getting my hair done. I got my teeth cleaned at a student clinic for $10 IIRC and my nails done by a friend in the cosmetology program who always needed people to practice on. Community 101
It annoys me when people say “they’re on SNAP but their hair and nails are done and they’ve got tattoos”. It’s extremely normal to do your own hair and buy press on nails, and tattoos literally last forever. What do tattoos someone got 10 years ago have to do with them needing to eat now

Hi #booksky
Gonna be vulnerable for a moment—I'm losing a big chunk of income because things are rough for indie bookstores right now. I'll be depending on my royalties while I look for more work.
My new book is an atmospheric FFF+ gothic fantasy.

What I learned from Miss Major was persistence and also keeping a sense of humor. I was lucky to see her work in various organizing meetings over the years. She was a model of how to be a good elder. Truly grateful for everything she did to make the world better. Time for the rest of us to continue.

The end of federal enforcement of special ed laws. Some states - including MN - will likely be ok. But a lot of disabled kids in a lot of states are going to lose the education that federal law and decades of jurisprudence say they are owed.

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work.

We are losing something by having newsrooms where everyone who has more than a few years’ experience has gotten fired. I don’t fault a young writer for not knowing about things that happened before she was born. But now there are no editors to help give context to these stories, either.
