Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.

RFK Jr had slashed the CDC’s program to monitor and track food-borne outbreaks back in August. Fast forward to now… deadly listeria outbreak across the U.S. has now caused 25 hospitalizations and 6 deaths across 18 states, one of the largest outbreaks. These events are linked.

1/6 In the halls of the Department of Health and Human Services, a photo of Admiral Rachel Levine now hangs -- but with her *deadname* printed beneath it. It’s a quiet act of cruelty. And it says so much about how this Regime sees trans people.

Biography: Rachel Levine

Rachel Levine became the highest-ranking openly transgender government official in U.S. history when she was confirmed by the Senate as the 17th Assistant Secretary for Health in March 2021.

One of the saddest things is when children have cancer, immune deficiency or need bone marrow or organ transplants. And to add insult to injury, they’re unable to receive vaccines. But YOU can do your part to help protect them by immunizing yourself & your family. We are ALL in this together.

One of the things mentioned here is that they arrived in unmarked cars and wore casual clothing, so if staff hadn’t had the courage to tell them to go away, how would you know they were federal agents and not random adult men abducting children?

A promo graphic. The top says "Now in Large Print". The cover has a dark dusty stairway in a haunted house and the title Dweller on the Threshold. There are three accompanying reviews that say "I personally don't like virtue signaling" and "unnecessarily political and woke" and "I didn't think all the political inserts were needed" and "profanity and liberal propaganda". Also in ebook, paperback, and hardcover.

Saying "Oh the economy is bad" to justify using AI to generate art for a business is a stupid argument. If the biz needs paper and pens for the office, can they go to Office Max and steal supplies because they didn't budget for it? No! So why is it okay to steal from artists?

People who never read books now in charge of books.

A social media post featuring two tweets. The first tweet by Anne Applebaum states that every book published in the United States is sent to the Library of Congress, and mentions age restrictions for using the reading room. The second tweet from Acyn quotes a reporter asking why the president fired the Librarian of Congress, followed by a response addressing concerns about actions taken regarding the library and children’s books. The background includes the White House press briefing setting with a lectern and flags.

Here’s the thing about the tariffs: there will be no “short term pain”. Only long term. Every time a company realizes they can get away with charging you extra they don’t ever lower the price again. They just gouge. Whatever price hikes there are will be here for good.
