This map is wild; the big population centers are not a surprise, but the dots with no city names? Those are hella conservative areas. I would also not call Fort Smith or Jonesboro bastions of progressive thought. But they had rallies. Remember: this is only REGISTERED events.

I tore my office apart so I could rearrange my books and have more cohesive shelving. This seemed like a great idea except now I have to do the work.

My collection is complete, but I do not understand why publishers cannot make things MATCH. I am IN PAIN.

My Friends of the Library chapter switched to a membership pin model. But it turns out I’m very bad at selling pins.
(They’re $25 and get people early access to our annual book sale. And hopefully other stuff as we expand the program!)
