Letter carriers know USPS isn’t a business—it’s a public service connecting every American, including 51.5M rural households & businesses. Funded by postage, not taxpayer dollars, it belongs to the people. We’ll #FightLikeHell to protect our universal service from privatization!

I've been doing digital archiving for my geographic community for a few years. I'm lucky to have grant opportunities to grow our digital collections and this week got my hands on yearbooks spanning over 40 years. That project is uncertain now, because of men acting under the federal government.

This week is shattering me.

Libraries across the country began receiving official notices from the Acting Director of the Institute of Museum and Library Services terminating their grants, effective April 1, 2025.

"[It’s] not right to play God with masses of people. To be God you have to know what you’re doing. And to do any good at all, just believing you’re right and your motives are good isn’t enough. You have to … be in touch. He isn’t in touch. [...]he sees the world only as a means to his end."

Rhaegal and Vizy are exhausted worrying about their mom. I was so proud to become a public librarian and I am still so proud of the projects I work on that benefit my community.

Vizy and Rhaegal are pretty tired of overthinking things they cannot impact. Pulling together for a nap.

Winter storms, once-in-a-lifetime snowfall, freezing temps, and now going into day 3 of closures on the Mississippi coast. Rhaegal and Vizy are sooooo happy.
