It was at a tire shop so I guess it's roaming around somewhere.

For all you Jim Woodring fans out there. A select few initiates will recognize this ancient cryptic symbol. Spotted in Tacoma near my hood. #jimwoodring

As a child, I was obsessed with the book Faeries by Brian Froud & Alan Lee. My mom wouldn't buy the book for me (the book just came out & I was 6 years old). Every time we would visit the local bookstore, I'd run to grab the book & read it. I loved the leprechaun hats! Happy St. Patrick's Day!

In college, Laura Ingraham went to a Gay Students meeting. The next day, she published the names of everyone in attendance in the school newspaper, at a time when being outed was dangerous. So, yeah, appointing a menace to gay people is a GREAT selection to lead our nation's [checks notes] arts.

I tried to visit as many standing stones I could when my family visited Ireland and the UK last summer. It was balm for the soul. I wish we had standing stones here.

From Conversations with Maurice, edited by Peter C. Kunze. This is a conversation between Dr. Seuss and Sendak in 1979. Still relevant in 2025. #kidlit #mauricesendak #drseuss

Interviewer: How do you shut out the reality of the world when you’re creating your books? Do nuclear weapons, cancer, unemployment, and pollution affect you?

Sendak: Well, there is no way you can shut out those facts unless you’re insane. Perhaps they permeate the work and color it in some particular way, but there is no magic way you can shut the door on all these things. We don’t work in “airy fairy land” when we’re doing books for children. We are dealing with real life, even though we’re using forms that are nonsensical or funny or bizarre. In fact, real life should be in the book. It has to permeate the work. I live in this world.

Seuss: They’re all there, but we look at them through the wrong end of the telescope. We change them in that way.

My why? Making books for children is a radical action, b/c becoming literate is a radical action, b/c self identifying as a reader is a radical action, b/c reading with the explicit goal of gaining self knowledge is a radical action. These are radical actions b/c they literally change the world.

When the Patriot Act was passed, libraries got requests for patrons’ borrowing history. We were prohibited from disclosing those requests. We deleted and shredded those records and stopped tracking reading history for that reason. ALSO.

Thousands of books have been targeted for removal from school and public libraries. In fact, we've been tracking thousands of book bans here. Yet, the U.S. Dept of Education released a statement calling book bans a hoax! bit.ly/4h76cS5 via @everylibrary.bsky.social

Book bans have not been a Biden-era hoax, and we have the receipts to prove it.
