Yup! They go hand in hand!

Correlation is not causation but I can’t help but notice that our literacy rates and our democracy are declining at the same time we are pricing people out of reading, defunding libraries, and banning books.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station.

List here: sbgi.net/tv-stations/

Isobel has always been such a big, bold voice — authentic and honest. I’m sending love and strength and gratitude for years of knowing her.

Rereading Rules of Scoundrels by @sarahmaclean.bsky.social & I forgot that Temple is my favorite kind of freak. This is also such a masterful moment because yes, HOT, but also because when Mara tells him his control over her feelings scares her, he gives her TANGIBLE control over him, & it’s so…👩🏾‍🍳💋🔥

Snippet from Sarah MacLean’s ‘No Good Duke Goes Unpunished,’ the Third Rule of Scoundrels book:

Her gaze rested on his good hand, clutching the cravat he’d tossed away earlier, the long stretch of cloth at once promise and threat.

“You worry about control,” he said.

Her heart began to pound. “Yes.”

He extended the cravat toward her. After a long moment, she took it, and he lay down on the bed, extending his arms up until his hands met the slats of the headboard.

Her mouth went dry at the look of him, spread out before her, broad and beautiful.

so, one of the things I am going to do right now is PUT THIS INTO MY PHONE AS A CONTACT, that way, if I see something I can immediately report it, not fumble around wishing I could find this number, remember the name of the organization, etc.

With credible reports that there will soon be a major increase in federal immigration enforcement activity in Chicago, I want to once again highlight the Family Support Network - a rapid response resource run by the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR). Use it if you spot ICE.

An infographic reads:

If you need assistance due to ICE detention, or to report any suspected ICE sightings, call 855-435-7693. Visit icirr.org/fsn for hotline and Know Your Rights info.

An infographic reads:

Llame a la linea directa de apoyo familiar 855-435-7693. Obtener apoyo legal de deportacion, reportar cualquier actividad de ICE, obtener referidos para servicios legales y socialies. Ayuda disponsible en Ingles, Korean, Arabic, Chinese, Polish, Urdu, Vietnamese, Haitian, Creole, Quechua, Ukranian, Russian, and Hindi

Example: “Paramount fired Colbert because he made Trump mad and & they wanted a merger approved. MEANWHILE they locked down South Park for $1.5 billion, BUT when the ink was dry on the contract, South Park dropped a scorched earth episode on Trump, AS A RESULT OF WHICH Paramount played themselves.

This feels like a very good day to remind everyone that Trey Parker & Matt Stone taught me the most important lesson on writing conflict. Avoid writing scenes connected with “and then”: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGUN...

Perfect summer read. That rich family tension, snappy @sarahmaclean.bsky.social banter, good surprises, and while *not a romance* still a good romantic storyline. A+

Also, loved the not-so-subtle nod to @jenreadsromance.bsky.social and the cute connection to the wider MacLeaniverse!
