I’m a writer, bookworm, gamer, and art appreciator.
Having finished Joyce Carol Oates’ Black Water and it being only the second of her published works I’ve read…I find her writing profound. She manages to understand with intimacy such small significant moments I can only feel her understanding and I am so grateful she writes. #books #reading

Antivaxxers are trying to erase a six year old girl because she is the only child to die from this vaccine-preventable disease in >22 years. Six-year-olds can’t make medical decisions. She was unvaccinated bc her parents opposed vaccination & would be alive today if her parents were not antivaxxers.
That Time the Texas Dept of State Health Services Fact Checked Propaganda About the Death of a Child With Measles: the child that died was unvaccinated and healthy. Anti-vaccine activists want to dismiss her death. @aboutpediatrics.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/stopanti...

Don't they have enough to do without debunking anti-vaccine propaganda?

Congressman Al Green’s method of protest is compelling without a doubt…but these signs I don’t think are effective.

They look polite and soft.

If you’re going to hold up a sign, make it big and bold — or do what Al Green did.

People have been saying it looks like they’re at an auction.

So Rep Al Green gets kicked out of the joint address because he won’t sit down but Republicans can chant “USA” while standing and that’s not disruptive? I spy some suspiciously subjective ideas of decorum…

Please buy books and read them. It will matter moving forward.

At minimum, I have 2-3 books on my person, which go from place to place with me as ongoing conversations on different topics and times. #books #bookworm #ReadEverything

That feeling when you find a book by a new author, read it, love it, and then find out they’ve published several more books you’ve never heard of. 😍 #books #reading #bookworm
