A great read well-worth your time.

Loved this book! Deep dive into history I was unfamiliar with
Apparently my book Cleopatra's Daughter: Egyptian Princess, Roman Prisoner, African Queen was the 2023 Rhakotis Book Prize/Book of the Year runner-up (the winner was
@kateantiquity.bsky.social Queens of a Fallen World, which I really enjoyed). Thank you Rhakotis Magazine! 🥈

Since everyone’s finding old and new friends, take a moment to read my story, I’m a 32yo polio survivor because I was not vaccinated. Pass on my story, repeat it, tell it to any vaccine hesitate parent. No kid deserves vaccine preventable diseases

I’m a Polio Survivor. I Don’t Want You to Get It.
Polio is once again a public health threat in the United States. Grace is disappointed, though not surprised.

We're way past how things SHOULD be now. We're living in how it actually IS out here, which is a constant feeling of being fucked over by people w more money than they could ever spend in 10 lifetimes bc they want to make that number into 100 lifetimes.
And that's why the reaction is what it is.

Daniel Penny acquitted after literally killing someone on camera for being disruptive on the train the same day a person of interest in the shooting of a shitbag healthcare exec gets grabbed pretty succinctly sums up who in this country is allowed to kill and who they’re allowed to kill.

If House Republicans really wanted to protect women, they'd release the Ethics Committee report on Matt Gaetz' alleged sex trafficking - not try to ban their colleagues from using the bathroom. Stop the bigotry and release the report.
