If you are a WHITE mom or dad who is a US citizen it's time to check with your neighbors and see if you can pick up their kids at school when you get your kids.

Thank you. We all need to involve ourselves in local elections, no matter where we live, red or blue, or independent.

Authors Against Book Bans @authorsabb.bsky.social · 1d

We have been winning school board & local elections all across the country thanks to work like this. If you're in Texas, find your district, do your research, share what you learn with your neighbors.

It's finally ready! October's most anticipated release, w/ the possible exception of The Life of a Showgirl, is The Book-Loving Texan's Guide to the November School Board Elections. If you hate book bans, read this to know who to vote for and who to campaign against! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Is anyone tracking how often ambulances have been called since the detention center was opened?

Curious if there's been changes in frequency or call type. Failures in care/food provision could be one problem, but coordinated detainee activity (i.e. a hunger strike) could also be taking place.
