And now for today's good news ... a wonderful librarian now has a full time job getting people excited about books. All kinds of books. Even the diverse ones that the government doesn't want you to read.
OMG! Mychal did it. Anyone who first caught this wonderful human gaining an audience on TikTok knew there was something special happening. What an incredible journey and story. Promoting reading and libraries is so damn important right now, and I can't think of a better ambassador.

With the news of the Kennedy Center Honors, EVERYONE needs to make art. Make bad art. Make good art. Make art because fascism destroys it and tries to bend it to its will. Make art they can’t contain. Make it public. Make it loud. Make it rebellious. Write, paint, draw, dance, sing, sculpt

MAKE ART

Do we not have libraries filled thousands of Science Fiction stories that explain in great detail why this is a bad idea?

Haven’t been posting much in quite some time. Everything’s been….overwhelming? But I plan to get better about it.

People living under fascism didn’t survive by giving up joy—they protected it.

They held onto the things fascism tried to erase: art, friendship, jokes, rituals, language, memory.

Not as escapism but as resistance. As proof they were still human.

Joy isn’t frivolous under fascism. It’s strategic.

Do you ever get a moment to sit and pause and realize you haven’t been really breathing for a really long time?

I took my youngest to the Santa Barbara Natural History Museum and sitting in their outdoor area, I felt like I was able to breathe for the first time in a long time.

#DanceMom victories: we got to the event comfortably ahead of call time, parking was stress free, we got our entire luggage haul (incl 5 costumes) into the hotel in one trip, and a room was available for early checkin.

What is even happening?

Every morning I wake up and read the news and just am overwhelmed by the stupidity of it.

We're being subjugated by the worst people with the deepest levels of incuriosity deeper, in Thiel speak, than the deepest caverns of Moria

I'm watching Sky News coverage of the Conclave and the newscasters were getting so impatient for the results of the first vote as it was getting later and later. As a cradle Catholic I find it such a funny collision of ancient tradition vs. instant gratification culture.

Kristi Noem on Abrego Garcia's wife: "Is she still scared? So many people and victims I've worked with over the years, they say one thing in public because they have to to survive or to protect their children. So I wouldn't say that what she's saying today is how she really feels."

My youngest has been rewatching Star Wars Rebels and he got to the end part of season 4.

“Jedi Night” and “Dume” get me EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. So so good.
