ANYWAY, did you know there's an extension you can put on Chrome that will connect with your local library system and when you go look at a book, say on AMZ, it will tell you if that book exists in the library system and if it's available? It's literally called Library Extension.

There's a great book called Cult of Trump to help understand the mindset. Otherwise, start with one small thing. One policy you know will upset him to know the truth about and keep gently encouraging him with a lot of empathy in the right direction. A lot of people say it only takes one bit of doubt

THE DAUGHTER OF DAWN (1920) was significant in that its cast was entirely Indigenous. Thought lost for decades, a single copy of this independent production showed up in Oklahoma, where it had been shot, but the owner was holding out for a million dollar payout.

Prior to Blockbuster eating the market before becoming Netflix chum itself, video stores were seen as THE small business opportunity and they flourished. My small town had at least 8 at any given time. They always smelled like those thick plastic cases and were usually festooned in posters.

You're looking at official artwork for the Pepsi/Frito-Lay "Monster Bash" store display, from the 1992 Halloween season. Aside from all of the monster standees, they also built giant cardboard houses based on the Bates Motel! Back then, going to the supermarket was like walking through a haunt.

Thank you for reading, I’m so proud of you! 💛 We are in a literacy crisis, we have to do everything possible to encourage reading and love of books 📚 Reading is not easy, it is a challenge we are worthy & capable of conquering. When we find that one story… oh! The wonder, the magic, the joy ✨

Tweet from Mychal: Reading is challenging. Reading books, being literate is not something people of color were always allowed to do. It was forbidden 💔 But now we CAN read, we CAN have library cards, we CAN learn, we ARE all worthy of literacy. Reading books is joy 💛

Tweet is in response to one from Ye, reading: Feck reading and anyone who can do it
