Archaeology News!! A new research discovered that the famous Venice Winged Lion statue, an icon of the city, has a Chinese origin, and could be a modified Tang Dinasty tomb guardian statue. Maybe brough to Italy by the family of Marco Polo! www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

57 years ago today, queer people resisted a police raid at a gay bar in NYC. These activists bravely defended their right to exist in the face of government oppression, causing a major turning point for LGBTQ rights. We honor Stonewall's legacy as we continue the work for liberation.

Had a great session tonight of @brotherwisegames.bsky.social Stormlight Archive Stonewalkers adventure! One of the Warriors spoke the First Ideal and is now a Skybreaker, while the Leader is working towards speaking the First Ideal and becoming a Stoneward. I’m so excited to keep playing this system

Just made my first character for Hollows from @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social and I’m already loving this game. The flavor text is insanely well-written, and it’s hooked my whole group without a single die being rolled yet.

🚨NEW🚨: Donald Trump is attempting to strip away federal support for libraries. We will NOT let that happen. Last night the President signed an order to gut the Institute of Museum & Library Services. But together, we know we can show up & defeat it. Full EO: www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Show Up For Our Libraries! By eliminating the only federal agency dedicated to funding library services, the Trump administration's Executive Order is cutting off at the knees the most beloved and trusted of American institutions and the staff and services they offer.

President Trump's executive order to eliminate the Institute of Museum & Library Services would have disastrous effects for communities nationwide. We call on all Americans who value reading & learning to reach out to their elected leaders. Read ALA's full response: www.ala.org/news/2025/03...

ALA response to White House assault on IMLS
To dismiss the mission of an agency that advances opportunity and learning is to dismiss the aspirations and everyday needs of millions of Americans. And those who will feel that loss most keenly live in rural communities. 
As seedbeds of literacy and innovation, our nation’s 125,000 public, school, academic and special libraries deserve more, not less support. Libraries translate 0.003% of the federal budget into programs and services used by more than 1.2 billion people every year.
