People are being tortured and murdered in the street. the idea that in addition to this, we have to call our reps and tell them we dont like it seems insane.

There are at least 10 states proposing really cruel, detrimental anti-library, anti-literature bills this legislative session. It's only January 18, so these won't be the only ones.
Here's what they are, what they do, and how you can respond.
Also note the outside agitators fueling these.

Even more bad library bills being proposed in state legislatures. Don't just read and understand what's at stake here–take action to help stop their progress.
Attempts to suppress LGBTQ+ books in libraries? They're not happening at the local level, folks.

I don’t ever want hear another “oh, he wouldn’t do that” He just did babe, now what are you going to do about it? If citizens being plucked off the streets due to legalized racial profiling isn’t enough, then how about free speech. I thought y’all cared about that?

It’s not us versus our neighbor. It’s us vs government. It’s us vs amoral billionaires. It’s us vs the healthcare system. POLITICIANS. WORK. FOR US. The greatest and most successful power move was to make us *forget* that we have any power at all before systematically taking it away

We are not witnessing the collapse of Democracy. We are living through the solidification of a fascist regime. We are not spectators. This is at our doorstep and like frogs in boiling water, we have normalized the thing trying to hurt us. Because the tactic is overwhelm, exhaust, and divide.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.
As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.
End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

Raiding homeless encampments is a form of political violence, btw.
The attack on Charlie Kirk is disgusting, vile, and reprehensible.
In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form.

A conversation I keep having with teachers who add genAI to their curriculum (as opposed to those who are required to use it from top down mandates) is what is the learning goal? They give me a bunch of jargon, but when you sift out the hype you're not left with much. 1/

I know there's a lot of 1776 rebellious American patriotism going around right now- but I must remind you that the roots of our society is not throwing tea in a harbor- it's committing genocide and enslaving people.

My hope is that y'all will note all the people who turned out in the states you so callously mock and label deserving of this suffering. Even in the smallest of towns, people showed up because they hate this man.

If the Democratic Party was smart, after yesterday's turnout they would actually start talking to people in red states. They would spend money in elections at every single level. It's time to end the generations of elitism on the left. Ignoring half the country has only pushed them further right.

My alarm is set for 2 am. In spite of knowing that, I remain incapable of making it to bed before 10:30. This is very much going to be me tomorrow:

What I need to impress on y'all, and that I have been saying for years now, is that the vagueness IS THE ENTIRE POINT. It's so they can call anything they wish "sexually explicit," especially LGBTQ+ books.
This isn't new or innovative. It's the same old shit, year 4.5.

The article doesn't define what they mean by "sexually explicit." Since Olsen has also proposed a flag ban, I'm guessing anything implying LGBTQIA people exist would be included.
