Beware of the people who spent the last several years mocking Hunter Biden’s addiction issues who are now virtue signaling about Pete Hegseth’s alcohol issues.

The incoming prez is a Bible-hawkin’, guitar-sellin’ convicted felon and dirty old man. How did we get here from Abraham Lincoln? 🤣

Terry Pratchett, Jingo

Quote from Terry Pratchett's book, Jingo “It was because he wanted there to be conspirators. It was much better to imagine men in some smoky room somewhere, made mad and cynical by privilege and power, plotting over the brandy. You had to cling to this sort of image, because if you didn't then you might have to face the fact that bad things happened because ordinary people, the kind who brushed the dog and told their children bedtime stories, were capable of then going out and doing horrible things to other ordinary people. It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was Us, then what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.”

I'd almost forgotten /how/ much I loved The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune. This part hit particularly hard right now.
A photo of a paragraph from a book. The paragraph reads: "It's not fair," Linus said, staring off into nothing. "The way some people can be. But as long as you remember to be just and kind like I know you are, what those people think won't matter in the long run. Hate is loud, but I think you'll learn it's because it's only a few people shouting, desperate to be heard. You might not ever be able to change their minds, but so long as you remember you're not alone, you will overcome."

Makes me sad re-reading this amazing letter from ex-Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox sent to high school seniors in 1994 after they asked him “What should Americans learn from Watergate?” 20 years later in ‘94.

His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.

I love this.
A restaurant board sign that reads: “we are not all in the same boat. We are in the same storm. Some have yachts. Some have canoes. And some are drowning. Just be kind and help when you can.

The next few years are going to be tough, but just remember what Anne Herbert said:

"Libraries will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no libraries."

The best time to join your local library is right now - if you have not already done so!

One of the best things about reading books is the ability to experience lives not your own, to inhabit the minds of people who are so very different from yourself. It expands empathy and educates as well as being infinitely entertaining.

Read more books & encourage others to read more too!
Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay, anymore than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius. If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books, you're afraid of thinking.
