Figure skating world championships were considered to be for men only until 1902, when Madge Syers showed up and took home silver and the ISU went "whooooops guess we need to segregate them." It happened again in 1992 Olympic skeet shooting: Zhang Shan took gold and then they segregated the event.

If your books are published on hoopla....check that they still are! Many indie authors are reporting that all or most of their ebooks there are gone. Audiobooks seem ok. Does not seem to be romance specific. Multiple people have emailed D2D to ask what happened.

every single actor in this movie has never looked better, before or since, than they did in this movie the costume designer behind those blue and white uniforms and the women's floaty white linen dresses deserves a MacArthur Genius Grant

Okay, pals. Time for action this month. We're going to do that by funding classrooms that are specifically seeking out Black history books. These classrooms are those that are in historically underfunded communities. These asks are from teachers whose students benefit directly.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy.

It’s official: In the USA The Gulf of Mexico is now the “Gulf of America,” and Denali, the Alaska Native name for North America’s tallest peak, has been reverted to Mount McKinley. But we refuse to accept this change—Denali will always be Denali to us. #IStandWithDenali
