Don't allow anyone to gaslight you. The American Library Association (where I work, by the way) documented 1,269 demands to censor library books and resources in 2022, the HIGHEST NUMBER of attempted book bans since ALA began compiling data about censorship in libraries more than 20 years ago.

We must not remain silent as a tiny minority of loudmouths attempt to police our #libraries, #schools, and public institutions. https://uniteagainstbookbans.org/.

Favorite travel destinations - one of mine, Greenport, NY. Gorgeous farms and vineyards, beautiful watching the sunrise. Stayed at Silver Sands motel, great place to be near the beach. Woke up every day to watch the sky change from dark to light.

Trump’s third campaign for president is exploiting the same void that empowered his first two — America’s dwindling social trust.

He will now do whatever he can to reduce social trust even more — to the point where he wins (or takes) the presidency.

We must not let him.

#trans people have ALWAYS been about two percent of the human population. The only reason you are only hearing about it regularly now is the #Internet. Same reason #MTG has a following.
We are not unnatural. We are a product of the same natural processes as the rest of y'all. We are people just like everyone else. Stop treating us like we aren't.

If we saw the former president of any other country warning of death and destruction in the wake of their arrest, we'd think, "Man, that place is a shithole."

Skyrocketing grocery bills. It’s not COVID. It’s not silly chains. It’s billionaires getting richer. This is fact. Data doesn’t lie, and their profits are setting records.

Banning books that show Michelangelo's David's penis makes perfect sense when you remember that this country was founded by sexually repressed ideologues who traveled across the Atlantic Ocean because the Catholic Church and the Church of England weren't sufficiently conservative for their tastes— and upon arrival to North America, engaged in genocide at continental scale

@Tilopa

every single one of them a neck deep in this extremist plot to overthrow America and our duly elected democratic process and should pay dearly...

Today 1945, US Army Sgt Edward Allen Carter was shot 5 times assaulting a Nazi German position. They tried to capture him but he killed 6 enemy & took 2 back to friendly lines where he interrogated them in German. He was black so he did not receive the Medal of Honor. Until 1997.
I’ve taken this story straight from DanSnow - hope you don’t mind Dan - because this history needs to be remembered.

This is Michelangelo's statue David, created 1501/1504. It is one of the most famous statues in the world. Including images of this statue in art classes is now banned in one school district in Florida because a parent complained that the statue is pornographic.I thought conservatives insisted that our history (especially statues) shouldn't be forgotten.
P.S., I refuse to mark this as 'sensitive.'
