HI HELLO SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY.

They are openly manipulating the stock market, and Congress is going to do... nothing

All I’m saying is that President Harris wouldn’t have us looking at the futures market on a Sunday night.

Start pouring into your own cup with free #ebooks, #audiobooks, and magazines from your local #library!

I don’t buy books on Amazon. Leftover from my previous life as an indie bookseller. If you are freshly anti-Bezos, some of my favorite options: 📕 Buy Locally! Hopefully you still have a local bookshop. 📕 Bookshop.org 📕 Audio: Libby, Hoopla, Chirp, Spotify.

one thing i keep thinking about is how there is simply no way to design a constitutional system that can resist authoritarian incursion if participants in that system do not actually care that much

If you use a Kindle, consider switching. Today's front pages. Kobo makes great readers and is a Canadian company that is Japanese-owned. And hasn't forgotten what month it is. #amazon #rakuten #kobo #boycottamazon #leaveamazon #kindle

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

This is your reminder to get a library card. They have so many services and basically all of them are free.

All I want is a cottage in the Scottish Highlands, a raging snowstorm, and Agatha Christie novel, a crackling fire, a kettle on the stove, and a basket of emotional support pastries.

I'm begging Bluesky to put the like button on the left hand side

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election. Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

Barnes & Noble is making a comeback: The world’s largest retail bookseller is expanding at a breakneck pace and is on track to reach its goal of more than 60 planned openings this year.
