I am beginning to think that whenever this world is too much with me, I should read T. Kingfisher. She lets me (and her young women heroines) grapple with danger that's as horrible as anything I can remember or imagine but never lose hope...and in fact, never lose.

1/ As of Thursday 6/12, several former military leaders, as well as prominent veterans, are speaking out against Trump’s deployment of troops to Los Angeles, calling it unlawful, unnecessary, & a misuse of military power. I compiled a thread of their voices so far. Please add more that you find.

I might like to listen to this book. It's so short, I read right through it, probably too quickly. I wonder what nuances I'd pick up if a good narrator brought them to my ears.

A Muslim candidate for mayor of the nation's largest city, defending the rights of a Jewish candidate for mayor, who was arrested for defending the rights of immigrants not to face detention without warrants. This is the kind of solidarity Trump and his goons fear.

10 years ago, a horrific act of racism and hatred took the lives of nine innocent worshippers at Mother Emanuel Church in Charleston. We must condemn and stamp out racism & hate in all its forms. May we remember these nine souls and work towards a more peaceful, just world free of bigotry & hate.

Yet another book where a woman is trapped and tortured for reasons which are both obvious and stupid, while a guilt-ridden policeman finds himself alive again because of make bonding with his sidekick. Not my thing at all. #Books #fiction #MurderMystery

I love seeing the massive #NoKings turnouts in major cities, but what I love even more are the hundreds and hundreds of small, rural towns that had relatively bigger turnouts compared to their populations 💙🙏

According to a police statement, the words "Free Palestine" were written on the brick in large red letters. Attacking a kosher butcher shop in Brookline, Massachusetts does NOTHING to free Palestine. www.wcvb.com/article/susp...
