I know a lot of people are boycotting Amazon, which is great, but it's hurting a lot of trans authors.
Trans authors: Drop links to your NON-AMAZON book listings/storefronts.
Cis people: Repost, boost, and, importantly, buy. Part of boycotting an evil corporation is supporting the alternatives.

Life is so short. We are all going to die.
Imagine choosing to inspire hate instead of sowing love. Imagine choosing profit over people. Imagine seeing the worst rather than hoping for the best.
Love is what makes life tolerable and good. Those who take that away are the cruelest, most wretched.

Indiana always thirsty to be the worst
The latest budget update from the state of Indiana would cut funds for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, which sends free books to kids birth-5. Here's what that means, what to do, and why this is about KIDS, not Dolly.

One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.

The part of George Orwell’s 1984 that everyone forgets is how the music and publishing industries have been replaced by a machine that spits out songs and bad novels “without any human intervention.” The goal is to keep you from ever having to think.
