Really need to organize my crimes

I look like a star but I’m out on parole

Totally living in an Aladdin Sane, Mott the Hoople, Velvet Goldmine rock fever dream. Also hungover.

At 2:30am, the Texas House voted 85-63 to pass Abbott's private school voucher scam – all without letting Texans vote on it. The fight isn't over, and Texas workers stand in solidarity with our educators, parents, and students. Texans across the political spectrum are opposed to vouchers! #txlege

pretty sure this dude having access to porn as a cashier at a gas station has nothing to do with public libraries. maybe if he'd gone to a public library, he would have had a librarian recommend him books which could help him shape healthier views of women and sex. #txlege

Silent spring goddamn

Stealing this 'cause the palooka who posted it didn't include alt text! I adore libraries, my first job was at the public library, I will always promote and defend libraries. 🖤

Let’s all go outside, fresh air; touch soil and plant flowers. K? Love y’all. Go get em. Pats Fanny.

We have lost the ability to think critically. Thirty percent of Americans read at the level of a 10 year old. This is adversely affecting decisions at the highest level: Producing Something This Stupid Is the Achievement of a Lifetime www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/o...
