Alright folks, let's talk about disabled writers and the issue with Substack.
We all know that platform is wildly problematic, but it's also the only newsletter option that allows you to remain free.
The alternatives all expect you to paywall. If you don't, they charge you for sending emails

😺 Take a closer look at this purr-fect art in the #NHMLA Archives!
Let's take a look behind the scenes with Yolanda Bustos, Director of Archives, and uncover some of the Museum’s most paw-some vintage cat artwork from past exhibits.

Your local library workers really need you to show up and fight for them.
And it isn't just about book bans.
Frankly, there are thornier, larger things going on than book bans for most libraries. Trouble is, they are things that require actions outside of the library to solve.
Help.

Seokjin taking on Jimin’s, Jungkook’s, and Taehyung’s parts so effortlessly proves how strong of a vocalist he is. They don’t call him ‘Silver Voice’ for nothing.
