I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

He attacks science and higher ed, driving top talent to flee, then complains we don't have talent and must bring in immigrants with h1b visas that he's charging $100,000 a pop for.
He's ok with immigration so long as he can exploit and profit from it.

Right, this event needs $1500 to happen. There are 600 participating bookstores & for most it’s their busiest sales day of the year, or is second only to Indie Bookstore Day / Small Business Saturday.
Editors/publishers, this is a no-brainer of an opportunity for your imprint. Romancelandia: pls RT

I'm gonna be real-real here: Bookstore Romance Day may not happen in 2026. By this time of year, I've usually secured at least a handful of sponsors & their backing helps pay for things like newsletter services & Canva & Zoom & internet, all of which are needed for planning & off-season events.

This will not get people treatment or help. This is another way to disappear people and l almost certainly has the goal of being used against political enemies. Not trying to be dramatic. But was just awake in history class for more than five minutes.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Everyone needs to hear this right now:
Don't let others make you feel miserable for taking joy in things. The world is a horrible place. If we don't take time to make ourselves happy, we'll crumble. The world will tell you not to smile. Ignore it. Find happiness where you can, even if it's small.
