The parents of these students are fighting for our freedoms abroad, yet those same freedoms are being eroded in their children's schools at home.

It’s almost like getting rid of demographics erases feminine media since we live in a patriarchal society where men and things for men are the default like we’ve been saying
Had no clue the award nominees were already announced but also this is the second year no shoujo has won since the demographic categories were removed. How very unsurprising.

Just a reminder of some of the context around the TikTok ban: In 2020, Trump tried to ban it via executive order a couple months after K-pop fans used it to organize fake signups to Trump’s Tulsa rally, which led him to publicly overestimate how large the crowd size would be.

I can't stop thinking about these people risking their lives to save this city and the people in it who voted just a few months ago to keep them working in these unimaginable conditions
These teenagers and young men — 95% of whom are Black, Latinx, or Filipino — earn between $2.20 and $4 per hour, plus an additional $1 an hour when they’re actively fighting fires, according to the DJJ. ⤵️

This is like receiving a letter that your husband who you thought was lost at sea was found and is coming home.

Trump has promised to replace the United States archivist in retaliation for the agency’s role in the case of the stolen document against him.

His so-called DOGE advisory body will also go after any of his perceived enemies, including the National Archives itself.

This is a good block list. Best part is that as MAGA are added, once you subscribe and block all, all the new adds are blocked, too. bsky.app/profile/did:...

Usually I get annoyed when people say, “Eliminating labels would be good” because it WOULD cause the erasure of feminine media.

But I do understand the sentiment of wanting society to stop being weird about gender. We haven’t reached that under the current patriarchy.

I've seen a lot of posts like this circulating asking what people can do to help support libraries as we continue to spiral down this super cool fascism whirlpool. I'm a career librarian with 15 years of experience in a very red state so I thought I'd throw in my pennies. 🧵
I'm not uniquely qualified for anything but as book bans will become stricter on stories of the marginalized in the coming years I want to ask librarians if there is anything I can personally do with my small platform to help out
