OATHBREAKERS Every Senator who voted to confirm Kash Patel as head of the FBI has violated their oath of office. They are not protecting, supporting, defending the Constitution of the United States. They are united in destroying it and our country. They are not patriots.

It would be a shame to encourage folks to use banned book lists to do strange things like -check them out regularly at the library -request the library order them if they don’t have them -buy them -start or support banned book clubs -organize a banned book kids story time A real shame

With the video game industry in an economic and intellectual tailspin, SEGA whispers “repurpose assets, put a pirate hat on it, and tell a simple story that makes people feel something” as it backs its U-HAUL away from the money factory, cash flittering from the windows

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

Ok people… “May” does not mean “will” “Likely” does not mean you are reading a “fact”. “Opinion” is also not a “fact”. We all have them!

Musk toys with the idea of appeasing Americans with $5K each from the demolition of our government institutions- While he gets 8 MILLION from our government EVERY DAY. Call me crazy, but I’d rather aviation safety, food inspection, med research, & our nuclear team. go.forbes.com/c/fXJz

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.
