If you have a Democratic senator, call them now. Today. Ask them whether they're going to vote *against* the Continuing Resolution to fund the government. If they give you a squishy answer, make it clear to them that you need to hear "Yes." If you want to yell at elected Dems, now's the time

Between this and a permanent resident being disappeared...I would not visit the U.S. right now if you have another option. A tourism collapse would be devastating to so many Americans who *are* on the right side of history, but if you won't be safe, you shouldn't come.

If your writing didn’t matter, they wouldn’t be going after our books and our stories and desperately trying to rewrite them and/or destroy them. Language is power.

Today I am going to ponder my personal Rubicon. Maybe you can take few minutes to watch this provoking video, and join me. I think we need to know where the line is and start figuring out what to do. youtu.be/0YFdwfNh5vs?...

In case it helps someone: The phrase “We don’t do / say that here” is immensely useful in managing people who feel emboldened to try to push boundaries and test behaviour norms in your spaces. It’s a bland statement of fact, doesn’t contain an accusation, and can be used by anyone including peers.

shamelessly stealing this from @amandasmith.bsky.social because i’d like to: • encourage you to tap this post & scroll the revisions • remind you NYT is both unprepared for this moment & actively enabling it • yell that NYT works hard to endanger trans people • tell you to drop your subscription

Today, I visited Union Avenue Books in Knoxville, TN. I needed a selfie with The Fifth Season by @nkjemisin.bsky.social. This is a beautifully written sci-fi/fantasy tale that we read for my book club this month! #ReadFreely #UniteAgainstBookBans

RIP to a real one. I can still vividly remember seeing Blue Velvet when it was released at the theater with my friends Drew, Bryan, and Will. I was a movies person from that point forward. Thanks for the wild and fantastic visions, good sir.
