How is it comforting when it feels so gross now?

Special thanks to Costco for all the Brussels sprouts

Team Beat!

That part of revising where I go, "This word? No, this word. No, actually this word. No, this one. Okay, this one," for three hours at a time.

Check the weather. Wear comfortable shoes. Coordinate with a group. Decide ahead of time what actions you will take. Have an escape plan if things go sideways. Charge your phone. We're in the streets today friends! handsoff2025.com/about

It's really important to remember that this attack on libraries is part (a big part!) of the fascist attack on our country. Steve Bannon actually saw book banning as a leverage point for conservative activism. If books are important to you, maybe this is your lane in the fight.

Bodo on sunny days: “Eh I dunno, maybe I don’t feel like walking today, I might just sniff on the porch.” Bodo on rainy days: “WE RIDE!”

Today in small joys, Walt and I have been watching Interior Chinatown (which is great) and we cheered when we saw Lauren Yee in the credits.

Inspired by Cory Booker? Live in Wisconsin? Want to do something about *gestures at everything* but not registered to vote? You can register and vote today! There's still time. The polls are open until 8:00 pm, and if you're registered and in line by that time, stay in line and vote.

GOOD TROUBLE needs to be the heartbeat of every Democrat everywhere.

I think it’s important to note that @booker.senate.gov and his team planned for this. Strength and passion and inspiration come when you put in the work. These are tough times and we all need to get to work.

THIS SATURDAY, APRIL 5th! Please attend a "Hands Off" protest near you, and spread the word!

@booker.senate.gov did it!!! This is the energy and passion every Democrat needs.

“This is our moral moment.” Every senator and representative should be listening to @booker.senate.gov and meeting the moment.

Good morning to @booker.senate.gov Truly this is giving me life. I hope other Dems gain some courage watching this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCUK...

"If America hasn't broken your heart, you don't love her enough." - @booker.senate.gov 😭😭😭 I feel this part of Senator Booker's speech in my gut.

I rewatched Past Lives on the plane home yesterday and teared up at the ending, of course, and thought "wait, what if they made this into a musical?!" So now that's my (not so) secret, never-will-happen dream.

Libraries & museums are essential pillars of our communities, and this is devastating. bookriot.com/imls-gutted/

There are elections happening at all levels of government all over the country in April & we can't sit any of them out. Here's a good primer on some but make sure to check out what's happening in your district!

I'm at #AWP this week and will be part of a fantastic panel about representing sexual assault in YA in a thoughtful, sensitive way for teen readers. Join us on Saturday!

For the first time on the west coast and not seeing the PDX carpet.

Show up.

We should all be horrified, outraged and moved to action. I just wish I knew what to do!

Just a reminder, that we're looking for community members to share their expertise in our Be the Change Workshops. We're interested establishing & maintaining mutual aid networks, protecting your rights & the rights of your neighbors, defending the right to read, active bystander training, & more!

I finished SUNRISE ON THE REAPING and two things: 1) Damn, Collins is good. 2) Resistance is a long game.

Okay, this is my newest very very favorite meme.

They're killing Libby because they don't want people to read. Call your reps!

My first book is in there. I haven’t even earned out for it but Meta decided they could still it for trash AI.
