🧒📖 Digital literacy doesn’t start with technical explanations. 📚🧚 It starts with teaching kids boundaries, consent, and choice — stories help make that possible. 📚❤️ 🍎🛡️

Totally loved Jellyfish Scientist Maude Delap and Her Mesmerizing Medusas by Michelle Cusolito and illustrated by Ellen Rooney. You get to learn about the lifecycle of Jellyfish while learning about a trailblazing female scientist. Picked it up while visiting the Seymour Marine Discovery Center.

A #bookrec for those who enjoy epic adventures & myths set in Ancient Greece, you'll love these #kidlit (8 -12) retellings of classics like the The Wooden Horse, The Odyssey, Perseus & Medusa, The Minotaur, & others. Warning that there remains some mature themes of patricide, adultery, etc. 📚👍 📚💙

Aries are known for being courageous, adventurous, & competitive. They are often bold & ambitious. Your Data Protection Divinity (our version of a #horoscope) is for Privacy-by-Design (PxD). PxD means building-in privacy from start to finish. It’s all about anticipating & strategizing privacy.

As the US-EU Privacy Framework for cross-border data transfers depends upon FTC enforcement, this is likely the death knell for such transfers. Based on Schrems II and the moves by Trump (including firing folks from PCLOB), data transfer to the US under any mechanism might not be valid anymore.
Trump has fired Democratic FTC Commissioners Alvaro Bedoya and Rebecca Slaughter. The FTC is an independent agency, and this action is totally lawless. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/18/t...
Trump Fires Democrats on Federal Trade Commission
The decision to fire the two Democratic members of the traditionally independent regulatory body is likely to face a legal challenge.

Libraries are vital, providing access to information, technology, and learning. Cutting IMLS funding threatens these services, especially in underserved areas. Library funding isn’t political—it’s an investment in education, opportunity, and civic engagement. #LibraryLove #ForOurLibraries ala.org
