I highly recommend _When We Were Birds_ by Ayanna Lloyd Banwo @ayaroots.bsky.social. It’s a delightful read which I think would be especially great for those who enjoy magical realism, strongly developed characters, and perspectives from other cultures (assuming you’re not from Trinidad & Tobago 🙂).

#SupportLocal, this past week has been devastating for local businesses. Please make a decision to support a local business over the weekend, it matters more than you know. Order takeout, buy some gift cards for future visits and shop online with local vendors.

Have a safe weekend #StLouis #stlwx

“The court adopted its first code of ethics in 2023, but it leaves compliance to each of the nine justices.”

Because the courts exists to demonstrate there is no need to hold people accountable—people just always do the right thing. /s #scotus #supremecourt

When a great character shows up and I can't help but wonder "what's next?" These characters become people to me. I care for them. I get sad when they hurt and happy when they triumph. They are real, and I love that. You can't say they aren't real because hey make me feel real
