Took a much needed break from the internet. It's the only vacation I can afford right now. I will be back to posting more books and crafts soon!

The majority of attempted book bans in 2024 were for books about LGBTQ people or people of color.

We have a right to read and learn about our communities, free from censorship.

The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would make it much harder for millions of people to register to vote.

Tell your Senator to reject this harmful legislation.
Stop the SAVE Act
The SAVE Act would keep millions of people from being able to vote – and would shut countless eligible voters out of our democracy. Urge Congress to vote no now.

And just to be obvious, if this isn’t the moment to use every parliamentary procedure possible to hold the legislative branch hostage until the executive branch is brought under control, then there is no point to having a legislature at all

I don’t know if y’all realize this, but Toupee Fiasco is a figure head. He’s not in charge. The Project 2025 crew, Heritage Trust, and Apartheid Clyde are in charge. They let him sign the EOs, do interviews, and golf because that’s all he cares about. Oh, and not being in jail.

The FCC is investigating Disney for checks notes…

DEI programs.

The same people screaming about “big government overreach” are now using the government to punish companies for hiring diverse talent.

Totally normal

not hypocritical at all.

When you look at the list of institutions they want to defund: libraries, museums, the Smithsonian, public schools, PBS, NPR, archives, you can clearly see that the real threat to an authoritarian regime is an informed and educated public

The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels by India Holton

This is a whimsy historical fantasy that has pirates, flying houses, and romance.

For the Trans Rights Readathon Day 7, I've got some TRR superstars AND a few lesser known books with trans or nonbinary rep. I highly recommend each and every one of these! Have any of these books been on your radar? #booksky

Dear Democratic Members of Congress,

Stop telling me about what he's doing. We can all see it.

Start telling me about what you're doing to stop it!

Signed,
