Gaiman: " If you really can't figure out which political party or which politician to vote for, just ask if they're on the side of libraries. Are they voting to fund their libraries? Are they voting to keep them free? Then vote for those guys. They're probably the good guys. And by the same token, the book burners, the book banners, they're probably the bad guys."

Before long, a talking point seeded by a 37-follower account was picked up and blasted across the headlines by right-wing media & fringe-“left” media, becoming the dominant narrative among mainstream & fringe media outlets alike.

(My personal assessment is that the initial account is part of an influence network, and the account’s activity serves as a sort of flag or traffic sign for others in the network. This is common in political “war rooms.”)

I say fuck off a lot but only to those I care about. Otherwise, I just ghost you.

The floor is lava - How concrete, asphalt and urban heat islands add to the misery of heat waves. Interesting article and visuals by Reuters on the importance of green spaces to reduce temperatures --> https://www.reuters.com/graphics/CLIMATE-CHANGE/URBAN-HEAT/zgpormdkevd/

Do you pronounce “Ms” and “Miss” differently?

Would be cool if you replied to say where you’re from and what variety of English you speak too.

I get the sentiment but this toot implies BC has just one set of conditions and no matter where you are you'll interfere with Wildfire operations.

That's just not true.

I wish this platform would default accept my #CamelCase tags. It takes extra effort to back up and make #climateemergency into #ClimateEmergency

This is needed from readers and screen readers. If you know a bit of how children learn to read it carries over to how people read and Camel Case is just helpful for any tag without spaces to delimit the words. Make reading easier for all folks. #CurbCutEffect

Are people aware this exhibition book exists?

For an educator who is immunocompromised.

For an RN whose hospital is short-staffed.

For a grocery store clerk who cannot afford to miss a shift.

For an 80 year old who avoided Covid until now.

For a child with asthma and their infant sibling.

For all of us.
