Historically they can't.

WA Folks - It sounds like Seattle Children’s has started denying gender affirming care. Including canceling a scheduled and much anticipated top surgery for a local teen. Midday protests are scheduled on Fri & Sun. DM me if you want more info. Does anyone know which RCWs they are violating?

January was so monumentally bad every single day I actually was not aware today was the start of February. I just assumed January was going to continue forever like some sort of weird, cold, layer of hell Dante forgot to write about.

Libraries & librarians have never been more important. If we care about the future, we must make sure every school, every community, every child has access to a library & a librarian. And we have to give them all our support, so they can do their vital work, which benefits us ALL! #SaveLibraries

Okay we've all had our free trial of 2025 and can say that we wanna return it. So like... Universe? HELLO? WE'RE GIVING IT BACK? CAN WE TRADE IT IN FOR LIKE 2015/2014 OR SOMETHING? 😭 ANYTHING BEFORE THE 🍊🤡 ERA? Heck I'd take before 1994 at this point. At least then I wouldn't be born yet.

One Headlight. Shooting the Milky Way and having composed this image, a vehicle emerged from the fog-laden valley below. Initially annoyed, I was to delete this file. But this image has become my favourite from that night's shoot. Take-away, don't delete files in camera. #photography #milkyway

One thing before tomorrow: Use your local libraries. Get your card. Borrow books, manga, films, audios, ebooks. Recommend titles for purchase (usually online). Attend promoted activities. Fill out those "How are we doing?" questionnaires. Tell your kids that libraries are good. They are. 📚
