To the millions who showed up today.
You participated in one of the largest single day protests in American history.
And you did it in a week that was the most authoritarian week of the Trump presidency.
It matters.
Thank you. And keep building.

“No Kings Day”: A compilation
Imagine you invited the whole school to your big, expensive birthday party, and your two best friends and girlfriend come, but then the rest of the students and teachers stand outside, yelling about how much they hate you.
Even the world's biggest narcissist has got to feel that, right? Right?

Words alone cannot capture the depth of emotion in this testimony. A voice from the past, once fighting against extremism and fascism, now speaks with heartbreak as history threatens to repeat itself. Watch, listen, and reflect.

Dorothy B. Porter changed libraries 💜
The Dewey Decimal System used to only have two classifications for Black people: 325 (colonization) & 326 (slavery). Each book by a Black person was put into one of these classifications. A book of poetry? Classified as colonization.

I'm a big fan of horror, but my husband is not. Therefore, I JUST watched Aliens Romulus for the first time on my own yesterday. OMG! Amazing! What a lesson in how to do tension right. We, the audience, knows what Xenomorphs are, and their hunting methods. Yet, the characters do not. So much fun.

Still not allowed to create a profile picture or background. At least my boy Zap is around to make me smile.
