Today on Mother’s Day, let’s remember every mother deserves a livable wage, affordable child care, paid family leave, and the ability to retire with dignity.

America must become a nation which treats all mothers and their kids with the respect and dignity they deserve.

My 2025 reads so far! Loved reading @abbystein.bsky.social ‘s book directly ahead of @sachalamb.bsky.social ‘s, they unintentionally worked perfectly back-to-back! When the Angels Left the Old Country was my favorite thing I read last year ❤️ #booksky

honestly, this is… this is feeling PRETTY GOOD GUYS 😭♥️
Screencap posted on SMG’s instagram, a photo of Buffy from Season 1 holding her pager. The caption reads “If the apocalypse comes, beep me.” Screen shot of image with text from Sarah Michelle Gellar’s Instagram reading: So... you might have heard some news this week, but I realize you haven't heard from me. Three years ago, I got a call from my dear friend and mentor, Gail Berman. She told me that she wanted me to sit down with Chloé Zhao to hear her take on a potential "Buffy" revival. I was blown away that Chloé even knew who I was, but, as I've always done, I told Gail that I just didn't see a way for the show to exist again. We'd always been aligned on that, but this time I heard something different in her voice. I eventually agreed to go (mainly just to meet Chloé) and our twenty minute coffee quickly turned into a four hour adventure. We laughed, we cried, but mostly we both talked about how much this show means to us. While I didn't agree to anything at that meeting, I did shock myself by agreeing to continue the conversation. These conversations did, in fact, continue over the next few years and eventually we added the incredible Nora and Lilla Zuckerman to our little tribe until ultimately, one day, we landed on an idea. I have always listened to the fans and heard your desire to revisit "Buffy" and her world, but it was not something I could do unless I was sure we would get it right. This has been a long process, and it's not over yet. I promise you, we will only make this show if we know we can do it right. And I will tell you that we are on the path there. I feel so lucky to be on this journey with these four unbelievably talented women, all of whom love "Buffy" as much as I do. And as much as you do. Thank you to all the fans who never stopped asking for this. This will be for you.

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library

While I work on this year's valentine, here's last year's.
A four-panel comic. In panel 1, a wood frog stands on a pink background. The text says: "Feeling unlucky in love? Did you know that male Wood Frogs have difficulty perceiving members of their species? Here are some things they’ve been documented trying to mate with." "Spotted Salamander." The wood frog looks at a large yellow-spotted salamander, with a heart over the frog's head. "Cattail." The frog looks amorously at a large cattail flower or "sausage." "Green frog." The wood frog looks at a large confused-looking green frog. "Dead fish." The wood frog stares at a large dead fish. "Live fish." The wood frog looks amorously at a large trout. "Pine cone." The wood frog looks at a large pine cone. The final text says: "Sorry, there's no moral here. I just thought you'd enjoy this fact about frogs."

Hello new followers! Here's one of my favorite older comics.
A four-panel comic called Instinct is Weird. In panel 1, a yellow warbler looks at a beautiful nest in a shrub and says "I made this for some reason". In panel 2, there are five eggs in the nest and she says "these are my smooth round children". In panel 3 an egg has hatched into a yelling hatchling, and she says "Oh no now it's loud". In panel 4 she looks distressed as five hatchlings now fill the nest, begging for food, and she says "help".

Biden promised to close Guantánamo when he ran for office in 2020. He wanted to "finish the job" that Obama never got around to doing (remember when he promised the same thing?).

Now Trump is going to use it to lock 30,000 migrants up.

So, if you didn’t cull the chickens with a highly pathogenic bird flu case known… how many chickens might survive?

Over 99% died in the outbreak described here…

A grim but essential memory: 80 years ago today Auschwitz was liberated. That there was an Auschwitz to liberate is unspeakably tragic. . .

"Thank you God for allowing us to return home."

This elderly Palestinian woman joyfully returns to the northern Gaza Strip for the first time since the war began, after a ceasefire deal was reached between Israel and Hamas.

As promised, there are exciting developments underway for open social platforms where, once there, we can move around with our posts and connections without losing them. Where we will have our own digital bags with us, instead of them being locked by an oligarch entity.

Hey Disney+, the inauguration contains material that’s inappropriate for young children. Dropping all 14 hours into accounts that have age-related content restrictions is not cool! Ask parents to opt in next time.

Conservatives/fascists: the US is a Christian nation 🤡

Literal bishop (to their face): support LGBTQ and undocumented Americans!

Cons: No, no, not this kind of Christian.

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"
