If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching, Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain. Emily Dickinson

Federal agents are now monitoring online criticism of ICE, tracking message boards and community posts around the clock, according to new AP reporting. And they’re not just tracking immigrants. They’re monitoring Americans online too.

For treasured broken ornaments, transform them into keepsakes like a mosaic in a clear vase or wreath, create new jewelry, or use pieces for textured art; for disposal, safely wrap sharp glass in newspaper/cardboard, seal it, and trash it, as most are not recyclable.
I have broken ornaments from 1950s that feel like they are part of my history…

It's been weeks since I had a great day of birding in Central Park. But today I got several good looks, including my local favorite--the Northern Flicker! I was surprised to hear its inimitable cry and thrilled to capture it in the morning light! 😎😎😎 #CentralPark #birding #Flicker

With this typical bullshit from Trump, this hopefully gives us momentum to keep our eyes on the prizes: BOTH HOUSES IN NOV 2026 and the PRESIDENCY IN NOV 2028. THAT is a must for us to achieve.

our library allows patrons to choose aliases as hold-shelf identifiers. 📚
I think this is a really important thing about libraries that many people may not realize. not only not tracking, but ideally really making an effort to maintain privacy on hold shelves as well. Corporations and many government entities are attacking our privacy; support libraries in preserving it.
