Did you know that many politicians and far-right groups are attempting to deny your freedom to simply check out a book by defunding libraries over books and programs? It's true, and they may be coming for your library next. buff.ly/TMxtf5F #library #libraries #read #reading #book #books

They're coming for your public library (updated)
They aren't stopping with Llano County, Texas or the state of Missouri. They'll be coming for your public library next.

Okay, y'all. Gonna be honest. 2026 has been really rough financially. Spouse's ex husband died in January, and we've been taking care of my stepkids full time since then, without any child support, and the debts have been piling up. If you can spare a few bucks, my Paypal is @flipwriter.

In less than two weeks I'm heading to Denver, Colorado for a week. Presenting & accepting DEEP Award at the Paleontological Society. Home of the world famous Jurassic deposits. Any tips for hiking, accessible exposures, conference activities & museums within a day trip distance for non-car owners 👉👈

Two-level image meme featuring Rowdy Roddy Piper's character from They Live. When he has the sunglasses down, he sees a bunch of AI-generated slop promotional posters. When he puts them on, he sees that the posters really read "Consume," "Don't Be Creative," "Give More Money to Billionaires," "Forget About Good Design," "Let Us Steal Your Data," and "Don't Hire Actual Artists."

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

You can't, and shouldn't seek to, replace public schools or libraries with bookstores. You can't replace a public good with a private business, no matter how well-meaning or well-organized it may be.

If you're a Dem who thinks you'll gain something by going anti-trans, look at Gallup's "most important problem" and Fox News' "most important issue" polling and see where trans issues rank. Whoever told you going anti-trans is a savvy or necessary move spends too much time on X and should be fired.
Gallup polling. "LGBTQ rights" moves between 0 and 1%.Fox news polling. Wokeness/transgender issues at 0%.
