Dig if you will a library card. You can replace your current Hennepin County Library card or get your first library card with a limited run Prince picture. #librarycard #Prince

Friend’s sign for today.
Poster that reads “Rejecting kings (& man babies) since 1776” with a drawing of the wanna be king with a slash through it. His brain is drawn in the shape of the Gulf of Mexico and reads “ Gulf of Stupidity.”

I noticed a couple of weeks ago that this little one had lost all of her tail fur. It is growing back. Look at that peach fuzz!

Man, this is a pretty fucking gross move from Amazon, huh? Good on @bookshop.org for not mincing words, though:
Every April, we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day to remind us how vital indie bookstores are to our communities and society. It’s a day of joy and solidarity, and significant financial impact for these bookstores. This year, Amazon is undercutting that with a “Book Sale” on the same day—a calculated move by a company that has already put half the bookstores in the country out of business, controls over 60% of the market and sells far more books than all indie bookstores combined. The people at Amazon responsible for the timing of their "Book Sale" should be ashamed, but they are shameless.

Despite what racist media says, Black Men really are unmatched. Here’s a group of NYC strangers who apparently noticed a pigeon trapped in human trash and worked together to free it!!🐦‍⬛

“Don’t cut his feathers. Bro don’t cut his feathers,” he says 😫🥹Makes me miss East Coast Black people so damn much
