hey for anyone who might want to actually own their kindle books instead of renting them, or who might be thinking of switching to kobo etc and will want to convert them to epubs, you now only have one week before amazon kills your ability to download its ebooks www.theverge.com/news/612898/...
Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books
It’s bad if you like to keep ebook backup copies.

A Black spy saved George Washington’s life, helped win the Revolutionary War, and still had to buy his freedom.

If America really loved Black history, James Armistead Lafayette would have his own blockbuster spy movie by now. Instead, we get another reboot of Batman.

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

It is more important than ever to remember: when some asshole is arguing a right wing talking point in your emotions, don’t get your licks in. Stop imagining you’re the one who’s really gonna make them think. Don’t get distracted. Block. Block. Block.

Never forget who lived, thrived.

We know their playbook. We can beat them.

To honor the memory of everyone who deserved better then, to honor the future of everyone who deserves the best now.

Solidarity is the only way home.

Collective liberation or bust, friends.

Understand something:

One of the reasons I'm offering this is because Trump's funding freeze is illegal.

Do not obey in advance. He's counting on people self evicting.

Don't.
If you're in Illinois, you're on Section 8, and your landlord tries to evict you because of the government funding freeze, email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. My cases are pay-whatever-you-can.

They’re testing. It wasn’t a “glitch” that turned off Medicaid portals. They’re seeing which things they can delete without a fight.

Vets benefits? Abuse shelters? Aid to children? Cancer research?

They don’t care who gets hurt. Just what they can get away with.

Keep. Fighting. Back.

Pritzker: "Let me assure you, the state of Illinois will fight this unlawful order with everything we have."

He then repeats a line he first used in his public comments following the election last November: "If you come for my people, you come through me." #twill
@govpritzker.illinois.gov, addressing reporters in Chicago now: "What Donald Trump tried to do in the last 24 hours is illegal. Let's be clear, this is a demonstration of cruelty against people who depend on us." #twill

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

All of us need to learn to answer ICE with "come back with a warrant, until then, I do not authorize entry." and answer law enforcement with "I want a lawyer" and then SHUTTING THE FUCK UP!

Don’t miss a stunning planetary alignment in our night sky!

Look up for a chance to see Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Venus in alignment across the night sky. If you have a telescope, you can also glimpse Uranus and Neptune joining in on the parade.

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration.

A team in Exeter has developed a finger-prick test to classify long Covid into three types: weak antibody response, excess immune response, and unclear patterns.

Early results suggest it could guide tailored treatments, but larger trials are needed.
