even more of a reason to invest in physical media but for e-readers take this as a sign to use libby! support local libraries and don’t let amazon steal from you.
There's this creeping movement in technology, of us becoming less and less owners of the things, the digital content we have bought. Amazon is changing the way you own books. Up til now, when you bought a book for your Kindle, you could back it up locally. Not any more, starting February 26th.

The key point here is "we will not obey." We need more of that from state officials. We need refusal from everyone who the administration will rely upon to work its will in the world, from governors to teachers, social workers, doctors, and other everyday people in the streets. Refusal is essential.
JB Pritzker flat out says the birthright "order" is unconstitutional and "we will not obey an unconstitutional order," attacks Trump for having the oligarchs in the front row.
See, @schumer.senate.gov? It's not that hard!

The way the world - hell, more than half of academia - has NO fucking clue there’s a whole field of scholars who study communication & media🙃
*looks directly into the camera on behalf of the entire field of study that closely examines how people get their news*
"Carville: I’m pretty limited to the media consumption survey. I’m pretty limited right now to how people get their news, which I don’t know…"
Thousands upon thousands of studies about this. The fact that someone in Carville's position thinks he has to reinvent the wheel isn't great.
