The number of people who appear unable to hold more than one thought in their heads at a time is... alarming

We invite you to fight for those who have been targeted for their efforts to commemorate the Tiananmen Square massacre like Jimmy Lai and Chow Hang-tung in Hong Kong.

Speaking of which, this is a great profile of Phil Eng (Boston's train daddy). Every profile of him makes him seem like just a really decent guy. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/05/28/m...

I'm unclear why you think I only just noticed it; I've been aware of it since birth and have been speaking about it for a decade plus now...

It was a limited comment period, as these things usually are. I believe it has expired now.

Also: I believe the entire conference where I was supposed to speak has been canceled. So it's not just me who is losing $ on this. Local hotels, vendors, and also librarians will lose professional development opportunities and connections from the conference. It's all bad.

Just as authors are increasingly losing school visits due to right-wing book bans, we are now going to lose paid library speaking engagements due to federal funding cuts. Speaking is often a big component of authors’ incomes. The destruction of culture continues.

I have already written to Alan Garber & John Manning; I had actually not thought of writing to the alumni board (I don't even know that I knew one existed!)
