Retired English teacher stuck in middle America. Love to read classics, British/Scottish detective and books about bookshops.
I take pics of old barns and wooded trails.
Sick of politics, politicians looking for easy conversations about enjoying life.

Following since day 1.
I am in love with Maze Books in Rockford, IL. It is a small shop that has made a huge impact on the area. It holds a book club, philosophy club, author signings, poetry writing, author readings, writing, LGBTQ+, a chess club an awesome owner who knows all his regulars.

The case could have consequences for people across the country—You don't see people challenging men leaving a state where gambling is illegal to go to Nevada for a bachelor party, a point the judge made. But women & their rights are under fire. It's time to pay attention. joycevance.substack.com

The site has crashed repeatedly in recent weeks, with outages lasting from 20 minutes to nearly a full day. Musk staffers’ reliance on AI to rebuild the system has failed spectacularly, yet they continue to insist it can replace experienced personnel.

Don't bother. They are just reacting at the 11th hour, to the fact that so many people have dumped them. They do nothing but push UHC and send out a magazine. They are only worried about $$$, not us.

...and they are told not to hold town halls so I guess we can find them at home and picket them there. We will be heard at their homes, offices, luncheons, meetings. We need to find them where they are and make our voices heard.
