happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Scorpio: There's nothing here for you. Why do you even bother? I mean, what's the point? When's the last time you were even happy? Do you even know what that means? Don't you think-
Oh, sorry. I'm projecting.

I love this!
If you have followed me for a long time, you know every Feburary we celebrate the Love of Reading in my school library with "The Ultimate Book Lover's Gift Basket" giveaway.
Here is this year's basket & the small book display it is in (as I am in a tiny temporary space).

Yearly PSA y'all, because people argue this on every platform every year during Black History Month and when talking about Black Romance.
Not a hot take, clear definition: Black romance is: written by a Black author, the main character is Black, and all the love interest(s) are Black. Every time.

Like it’s cute and very white how much of journalism dances around the reality of how racism was supported by their own desire to not respect Black people on line .. but like there’s a book about it
It’s fascinating how that gets left out

It never tastes the way I expect it to, but I don't mind it.
For me: petits fours. I always get excited about them because mini cakes! But they always taste....off.

Worse than mid: marzipan. Blech.
Guys, I really need to talk about something dumb and meaningless. What's a universally beloved sweet treat that you think is just mid? For me, it's meringue.

A new poll finds that 1 in 4 Minnesota voters took part in the Jan 23 shutdown against ICE, or have a loved one who did. Of those, 38% DID NOT WORK, either because they made the choice to stay out, or their workplaces closed. By me, @thomasbirm.bsky.social, @bloomekatz.bsky.social
