at this point i can barely muster the strength to be disgusted at trump for this shit, but the hatred of a thousand suns goes out to the media thats just going to pretend this is normal and let it slide
This is frankly one of the worst things Donald Trump has ever posted, which is really saying something

As someone who reads a LOT (I enjoy collecting books as well) with usually 4-5 on the go thus likely far surpassing the 13 books per year US average, I completely agree.

Read what you want. With the advice that it doesn't hurt to mix it up: fiction, non-fiction, plus a variety of subjects & genres.
"Don't feel bad if you're not reading every great book. No one ever has, and no one ever will."
Read Whatever the Hell You Want
Enjoy yourself.

One side wants to give you free healthcare and free childcare.

The other side has already taken healthcare away from millions and doesn’t care if your children are murdered at school.

Trump will be out of office one day, one way or another, so I'd like to remind everyone who's breaking laws on the assumption that Trump will always be there to protect them and pardon them that the reckoning will come for them all eventually.

Sort of a Final Destination film, but with prison time.

Good rule of thumb for determining who are the good guys and who are the bad guys is “which side is eliminating libraries” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Trump moves to gut several agencies, targeting Voice of America, libraries
The president signed an executive order that repeals several Biden-era labor and environmental policies, and another that severely cuts various independent agencies.

If you spend exactly zero seconds thinking about how this would be unfair to you, we should be friends.

It’s funny how the ones who complain the loudest never had a barrier in their way to begin with.

Many voters sat out the election, voted third-party, or worse yet, voted for Trump, protesting the destruction in Gaza.

How y'all feeling now that Trump wants to "clean out" Gaza, move Palestinians to Jordan and Egypt, and resume shipment of 2,000lb bombs to Israel?

Trump says he wants to 'clean out' Gaza and move Palestinians to Jordan and Egypt
Trump also confirmed he had instructed the military to resume shipments of 2,000-pound bombs to Israel, which had been paused over concerns about civilian casualties.

Friends, we can’t let the perfect be the enemy of good, but we can be more selective about where we spend our coin.

I like to remind people that Ruby Bridges is a vivacious 70 years old, not some doddering relic of a distant past.

Today is the first time in my 57 years that I realized Jimmy Carter and Jesus Christ have the same initials.

Seems fitting.

Didn't live up to the hype? It's because countless engineers and IT professionals worked around the clock for several years to update code, get patches in place, and test, test, and test and repeat for literal YEARS

My dad worked insane hours December '99 to ensure everything was patched and ready

People feared the computer glitch would mean "the end of the world as we know it." Thankfully, Y2K didn't live up to the hype after years and billions of dollars were spent on painstaking preparation.
Y2K seems like a joke now, but in 1999 people were really freaking out

Please use your library. Please borrow from your library. Like votes, every borrow matters. Every program attended matters.
It also makes it harder for them to ban books.
