"Separate art from artist" should be reserved for cases where an artist depicts controversial subject matter to protect them from the assumption that depiction equals endorsement.

It shouldn't be used to defend the work of bigots/abusers just so you can consume their art without guilt.

If you love your library, listen up…

When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations.

When you purchase audiobooks via Libro.fm vs. Audible, you directly support indie bookshops. Let's make that number grow ❤️

Getting a library card is punk as fuck and free!

Good morning! This is your reminder to support your local library! Get your card and see what resources you have access to from programs and events to seed libraries, maker spaces and digital resources. Libraries are more than *just* books. (Although books are very lovely!)

Public libraries are cool and badass
