I just wrote to all of my congressional representatives to plead them to support the NEH, for everyone, for public history, for scholarship, for teaching, for all of it. I used this widget: very easy, it has a template, and automatically looks up the emails of your representatives. p2a.co/DdtlGIT

PSA that we can support both our independent bookshop AND public library ❤️ They play such a vital role in our local communities, and they both need our support to stay open and keep offering valuable resources. It's not either/or, but both/and 🥰

I’m all for condemning the orange asshole but isn’t he referring to NYC as “king”? Maybe I’m reading this wrong, but our misconstruing his words only provides fodder for the right against dems

So many great bridges! Let's go with this classic. If you see this post, quote with a bridge from your gallery

Those cosying up to Trump have obviously read David Hume on induction. "I know he's fired and humiliated all his advisors in the past, but it doesn't logically follow that he'll fire and humiliate all his advisors in the future."
