The horse-riding librarians of the Pack Horse Library Project in Hindman, Kentucky, around 1940. This was a genuine New Deal initiative established by President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Works Progress Administration (WPA) during the Great Depression.

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

Was there sex trafficking at the Playboy Mansion? Several women have now claimed there was. The parallels to Epstein are extraordinary, but in this case, the crimes were glamorized on tv’s The Girls Next Door. Watch this clip of Karissa Shannon from Lisa Guerrero Unleashed youtu.be/rbCW4poBhXM?...

on Sophie Cunningham and a trans controversy that doesn't involve any actual trans people: defector.com/the-right-ha...

This rhetoric is ideal for listeners who believe trans women are an issue that they're supposed to care about, but don't actually have any real-world experience with them. The hypothetical trans girl who's supposedly causing all this trouble in the WNBA is the perfect tool for the conservative movement. She can't fight back, she can't disprove anyone's assumptions, and she can't garner sympathy when she's the target of hate. The perfect trans girl is the one who only exists in the imagination of the loudest cis people. Her monstrousness, the need to "protect young girls in a locker room" from her, gives them permission to enact policies that in reality only harm the anonymous girls, cis and trans, who want to play sports without the invasive scrutiny of gender-obsessed adults.

As @RepThomasMassie warns against taking the “fake fox/GOP outrage” seriously — it’s worth pointing out Fox is calling Ceuta “northern spain” to make it seem scarier when it’s actually in North Africa, across the water from the southern tip of Spain. 🤦🏼

A mother gave the government her fingerprints, tax records, and DNA to get her 6-year-old daughter back. She did everything officials asked. ICE used that information to find and arrest her. A child welfare system became a deportation tool. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Some will argue whether site was a portal tomb or multi-use shrine as if it couldn't have been both. Some will argue whether the Devil's Box or the Hoarse Hag's Altar is the correct local name. Lithic engines of mystery and unending discussion. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday
