CILIP is concerned that the removal, hiding, and modification of data, research and other information resources by authorities in the USA is already starting to impede the vital work of UK information professionals. Read more👇 www.cilip.org.uk/news/693964/...

Semicolon Books rules and is almost at its goal! www.kickstarter.com/projects/sem...

Amen to that.

He nails it.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

“We had to erase trans people or we couldn’t get our federal funding” Fuck the federal funding. You fight, you sue, you do not become complicit in our mass erasure. We are all in this together, and we all go down together. I will not allow us to be jettisoned or erased.

For Valentine's Day, I asked the hubs for one LEGO set to build together. I let him choose; I just wanted something fun & relaxing to do together. Well, he bought me the Robert Indiana LOVE sculpture! and a couple flower & succulent sets 😍 AND he chose Moana 2 for our TV background noise 💜 💜 💜

I do not ever want to hear this party talk about medical freedom or personal liberty again. www.sltrib.com/news/politic...

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

I'm fucking pissed at Trump for a lot of things, but one of his most heinous crimes is making me agree with Pence on something AGAIN 😤 Disgrace of a Hoosier

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

This is outrageous. US should not destroy $500 million in COVID tests! Hundreds of people in the US are still dying every week from COVID. People are still getting COVID and then Long COVID and other serious health issues from COVID. COVID wastewater is high. COVID is not over. wapo.st/42VLGQh

Love to see it

We all want the same things, Physical Safety. Financial Security. Love. Happiness. Some of us just want it for other people too.

You know how you go to Target to buy one thing and end up spending $50? Turns out they solved that problem. #DEI

"An 11-year-old girl in Texas took her own life after she was allegedly harassed by classmates who threatened to call the authorities and have her family deported."

Obsessed with my cute new book sleeve from @charmingchaptersco on Etsy & the adorable packaging! It's so soft & thick -- it'll be great protection for paperbacks during my many visits to doctors, hospitals, etc. I always hate risking damage in my purse. Plus have you seen all the cute designs???

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Today seemed like a good day to update my NO TERFS NO SWERFS IN MY SURF art into something more badass. Shark teeth and sharp claws. Fix your hearts or end up chum.

American institutions—from the media to Congress—continue to underreact to the unraveling of our democracy. Overseas our media would not hesitate to call what we’re living through a full-blown autocratic coup. Here's my attempt at the story they should write: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-trump...

Musk has wielded the power of an official who would need to be formally appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate, but he hasn’t gone through that constitutionally required process, the states argued. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

A new North Dakota bill would require stores to pull any book with any "material harmful to minors" from the shelves. For those in the cheap seats, that effectively means ANY mention of sex, sexuality or gender. A bookseller could be arrested for displaying 1984. www.inforum.com/opinion/colu...

You cannot fire so many people and shutter so many agencies and services and not expect things to start to go very bad very quickly. Our job is to highlight not only the chaos and cruelty of the firings, but also the devastating consequences. The public must turn on this madness and soon.

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

This is fascism.

Ngl I'm kinda rooting for the asteroid

Oh look, they’ve even included their content label on their launch announcement so we can see how fucked up their attitude in this moment is! This won’t prevent librarians from buying or endanger librarians and educators in our hostile book banning environment at all!

This Super Bowl Sunday, here's a reminder of what real courage looks like.

Just listened to an ALC of Omar El Akkad's upcoming book at work toda6y. It is so powerful and impactful -- highly recommended. Available in the US on February 25th

Another great night attending the monthly "A Brush with Madness" painting program at the library ☕❄️

We just signed up for Costco on Saturday, and when the employee at Member Services asked the reasoning, we cited the company's treatment of employees & commitment to DEI. He said they've gotten that answer A LOT in the last month or so 🙌🏼

My new reading buddy is cute and cuddly, but he keeps falling asleep during storytime

We could’ve had Tim 😭

February: I'm the shortest month. February 2025: I SHALL LAST FOR 10,000 YEARS.

Added a gorgeous wall lamp for the reading chair in my library (because the Big Lights are too bright and give me headaches). It's a little smaller than I expected, but otherwise perfect and soo pretty!

And with the ugliest cement block gray too

Ngl, fucking hate Biden and the Dems for doing nothing to build the safeguards needed in advance. Every federal worker who doesn't resist this shit but just "follows orders" I hope you never know love nor peace.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

born too late to explore the primordial ooze, born too soon to explore the stars, but apparently born just in time to experience the 100th consecutive millennia of men yearning to be feudal serfs under the thumb of a petty dictator
