When I say you don’t have to worry about microplastics in your brain I mean that there is much stronger evidence that you should be worrying about other things that you don’t ever think about, like the draining of peatlands for agriculture, and things that you think about all the time, like fascism.

Jennifer Vasquez Sura, Abrego Garcia’s wife, has expressed grave fears over her family’s safety. The attention her family has received due to her husband’s case is worrying, she said — especially after DHS shared details about the family’s whereabouts to millions of social media users.

This is always a good thing to promote, buying from indie presses helps keep a broad ecosystem of writing out there, a lot of small presses are one person affairs and they put so much love money time into them

Got a blog for that www.indiepublishers.co.uk (not just UK)

#IndiePressDay #Publishers
We’re trying to start a UK #IndiePressDay too on May 1st -
Could you give it a boost? Thanks

Thinking about #bannedbooks while reading AT THE EDGE OF EMPIRE by @ewong.bsky.social — In one chapter Wong interviews Chinese writer Murong Xuecun, who says: "The worst effect of the censorship is the psychological impact on writers." I fear this is happening to American writers right now.

Guess what? We’re still here. 😂

People are asking what they can do:

1) Keep calling your electeds!
2) If you’re local to DC, come protest at OPM & the Old Executive Bldg, where word has it Musk works out of. (haven’t confirmed that)

Just stay on public sidewalks and be kind to federal employees.

"What doesn’t seem to work is sending people home with no face-time at all." Can we tell the homeschoolers that? I appreciate the need for homeschooling with disabilities, but for me it was still overall more harmful. Especially since it meant I was still bullied in the few co-ops I attended.
