Hey, so it's National Library Week. You're going to see a lot of calls to get a library card and check out books. All well and good. But I'm going to ask you to do something a little more supportive: speak up.

"Democratic leaders who claim moral high ground while still pocketing checks from billionaires must understand: these protests are also against you. ... "We will not stop MAGA with a Democratic Party that continues to be complicit. We must be honest about that. And we must demand better."

Rest well, Kerry Greenwood!

1/5 After the #HandsOff protest in Boston, many people left their signs along the fence of the Granary, the cemetery where Paul Revere and Sam Adams are buried, as well as those killed in the Boston Massacre. I walked along and got pictures of many of the signs, though not all.

Nobody else's opinion of you means anything. How YOU feel about you is the only thing that matters. That, and what kind of song the muppets would sing about you as you stroll through town. Obviously.

The firehouse is on!

Oh, holy fuck…🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

Happy “we didn’t do it, but if we did it, it wasn’t a crime” day to everyone who observes

Don't be afraid to call things by what they are. MAGA is a terrorist organization, ICE is a secret police force conducting Ethnic Cleansing, Elon Musk is an oligarch, and Trump is a foreign backed coup d'état figurehead. This is not an administration, this is a regime, and your country is occupied.

The library and the post office are the only two systems we have that circulate things widely and to everyone, no matter who they are or what they believe. The library is the only one that, for now, is not forced to pay for itself at point of sale. Attacks on IMLS are attacks on every one of us.

"Be the bigger person" no. I tried that already I'm in my petty bitch era now

He was a few months ahead of himself.

The Trump Admin is much better at lying about the economy than managing it.

Just ordered a batch of jigsaws from Jiggy and Puzzledly. Excellent sites if you’re looking to shop small and buy puzzles that aren’t Thomas Kinkade cottage twee.

How you speak about you to you matters. So remind yourself you’re a gorgeous, badass bitch, who makes amazing decisions. Now, did you remember your meds for today? Good job, you, now go drink some water just for funsies!

Dear Humans, Your great-grandparents prayed for a cure for measles. You have it—and yet some of you want to 'research' your way back to the 1800s.

My best dressed of the night is Cynthia Erivo in this dress. 🥰

You made it all the way through today! And you look great doing it! Double check real quick: did your meds get taken and your water get drunken? Can you drink MORE water? I knew you could do it!

The election was hacked. You know it and I know it. The assassination attempt was staged as fuck. Am I a conspiracy theorist? Nope, I just have a goddamn brain

Excited for my March Book of the Month box! Got some good books coming my way! #bookofthemonth #kristinhannah #erinacraig #katienaymon #demiwinters #laurastevens

Just because you didn’t get everything you wanted done doesn’t mean today was bad. You got SOME things done. And I bet you took your meds. Maybe even had some water. That’s great!

Trump just got played by Canada….The Canadian $1.3 billion border plan that Trump and MAGAs are celebrating as a win was actually announced back in early December so congrats to the master negotiator 🤣….or should I say congrats to Biden www.canada.ca/en/public-sa...

Finished reading “The Small and the Mighty” by Sharon McMahon today. Loved it and I highly recommend it. The 12 people in this book are amazing people and amazing Americans. Their stories have inspired me to keep hope alive for the next 4 years, which won’t be easy.

Any stairway can be a stairway to heaven if you’re clumsy enough

Finished “Empire of Shadows,” by Jacquelyn Benson and really enjoyed it. Readers looking for a “The Mummy” style read will love this. It’s the first book in the author’s Raiders of Arcana series. Can’t wait to get my hands on the second book, “Tomb of the Sun King.”

It really is!

Yep...

People just don’t crash through saloon windows during bar fights like they used to

Books are medicine. Not because they're escapist, but because they're human. Reading is slowness, and nuance, and discovery—and compassion. It's attention in a world that's trying, at every turn, to distract you. An author shares the intimacy of her thoughts, and for a moment, we're believers.

If you're looking for a good book about schools of magic that aren't, you know, written by a transphobe, may I kindly suggest

Lucy sleeping on my feet and Ethel judging me for finding it beyond cute…😂💕
