Hey #Bookstodon!
Olive says you should go to Books2Read.com/ElectoralGraduate and buy this book on the #ElectoralCollege.
It's a #NewRelease out today from a #FirstTimeAuthor, and speaking as that first time author, I'm pretty proud of it.
It presents a powerful case against America's most cantankerous electoral system.
I know it's only January, but I'm already looking forward to Spring! So here's a flashback to some of my crow friends posing nicely for me among the cherry blossoms. 🖤🖤
This is a mama crow (on the right) and her offspring who, though perfectly capable of feeding himself, wouldn't stop yammering in her ear to be fed. Kids... am I right? 😉

Remember when The NY Times wrote a whitewash profile of Chris Rufo, complete with a magazine-style photo shoot on the banks of a local stream?

Exactly this. A faceless company that makes a special "rainbow branded" product will very likely never go to bat for someone in the #lgbtq community, much less provide a safe space for them.
But I have neighbors with a rainbow flag that they fly on their house from time to time, and I know I would be safe with them (and vice versa).
The psychological benefit of seeing your allies can't be understated.
#cat succeeding in making my wife quite angry. She told me "come make your cat behave!". Had to take a pic before inviting him down. Useless, because of course he climbed back up 10 minutes later anyway. #catpics #blackcats
