I overlooked posting this on here yesterday (did on my other socials), and it's important.

To the six million: we mourn you.
To the survivors: we honour you.
To the rescuers and resisters: we thank you.
To the world: remember.

In the midst of a lot of personal turmoil, I've finally started reading Let the Circle be Unbroken, sequel to Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry. Can we talk about how brilliant Mildred D. Taylor's writing is, and continue to shout against book bans?

I was today(ish) years old when I got my first mic for podcasting and of COURSE I got one that lights up, because my inner three-year-old really liked it.
