#Caturday

Good news out of Colorado! A Federal judge orders Colorado district to return banned books to school libraries. Good work! www.denverpost.com/2025/03/19/e...

Big list of NPS protests for Saturday, March 22nd. #protest docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

My state. Happening everywhere, and I hear people say, with their full chest, that the government is going to #endhunger. If so, why not dismantle these things AFTER they end hunger? I'll wait.

It's so bad, I forgot to post for #caturday. So here's a picture of my first sourdough bread. I did not score it deeply enough, so it opened itself organically. 😂

I think this is a good time to learn Spanish. ¡El pueblo unido jamás será vencido!

I have learned so much from fiction both written and filmed (including genre fiction) from childhood to today. Sometimes, the learning comes from the questions we ask ourselves as we interact with a work. #booksky

I am off exercising my First Amendment rights, but I didn't want to forget #Caturday, so I scheduled this in Buffer.

I wrote a conversation between two fictional people about seeking asylum... I guess it should have included plans for what to do if refugee status was revoked. Trump weighs revoking legal status of Ukrainians as US steps up deportations - www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

I feel like I need to write a procedural drama about these two cops at the 50501 protest in Raleigh, NC. It's not remotely my genre, but they look like they are already auditioning. How do I turn the North Carolina State Capitol Special Police into a "sexy" name like "Chicago Med"?

I actually liked that the US didn't have an official language. I often cited that fact when people got their underwear in a twist because someone dared speak a language other than English in their presence. I'll have to switch to "Non-English languages are not banned in the United States."

This is all giving me ideas for future novels to write when I'm feeling less stressed. I should probably learn to write around the stress, because I don't think it's gonna ease off anytime soon.

I am seriously out of touch, but I think I like this #Caturday thing. I learned about it about the time everything started speeding toward the Hellscape, and am starting to look forward to choosing my cat photos and seeing others'. 😹 Tiny Chloe, seeking warmth in my recently emptied bath tub.

Government should NOT be run as a business. There are ideals other than money that businesses by design rarely if ever respect. The behavior of President Trump and Vice President Vance today was SHAMEFUL. 🇺🇦

The Department of Ed has a form to snitch on DEI policies in schools. I’d be a shame if we broke it with thousands of responses… enddei.ed.gov

We need to instill a sense of self worth in our children so they don't grow up to beg school boards to pay attention to them through book banning.

This is what he was protesting. The City of Huntington Beach is putting a $7k plaque up in the library with a bigoted Easter egg right in the middle.

If you write a Republican senator, there's a good chance they will imply your email or letter was instigated by a liberal bot. My writing hand is in rough shape, but perhaps it can stand some exercise to prove I'm a real person.

In case I need to say it regularly, I do not consent to what is happening at the hands of my government right now. I did not vote that way, I've signed petitions, handed out flyers, protested, donated money... Even made dreaded phone calls. Yet here we are, somehow even worse than we were before.

Might be a good time to hoard any books that might fight under the category of Diversity, Equity, or Inclusion. That is, any book not featuring a White man with a supporting cast of cis, White, hetero people. ✊ #booksky

Every time I see someone justify the theft of social security data by Musk with the words “he isn’t a thief because he is already super rich”, it reminds me that a lot of people have been brainwashed by the notion that wealth is virtue and this is why they treat billionaires like they are gods.
