I love going to work when it's:
- an ongoing (ignored) pandemic
- beginning of societal collapse
- beginning of environmental collapse
- beginning of economic collapse
- beginning of governmental collapse
- beginning of queer genocide
And like, I have to pretend it's all okay

Prosecuting librarians/educators is one of the hallmarks of a fascist regime... This is not imaginary. This is not a drill. The old girl scout motto "Be prepared" has never been more relevant. bit.ly/3WtYPMs via @everylibrary.bsky.social

Arresting Librarians Has NEVER Led to More Liberty and Freedom.
History has shown that prosecuting librarians or educators is one of the hallmarks of an oppressive regime.

People on TikTok are reporting ICE raids happening in small cities in various states.
To get past algorithmic censorship, they’re writing down the information on paper and holding up and shuffling through the handwritten signs as they talk about pretend subjects like shopping, food, and animals.

With all the ramped up fear around DEI dissolution, seems like a good time to remind #librarians & #LibraryWorkers about the @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social Merritt Fund. If you face joblessness due to discrimination, the Merritt fund is here to help financially. #library

Just bought some hard copies of books I’m afraid will actually be banned nationwide in the future - including the US Constitution. Fully expecting firemen to burn my home down for having books in it in the years to come since we’re now living in the F451/1984 world we’ve feared of.

If I walk into work today and even one student hits that one-two salute I’m going to actually crash out. Putting out a book display on Nazis and fascism as soon as I get in the door. #schoollibraries

Send me your must-reads. You know, the political, queer, anti-racism, anti-fascism must-reads that I should probably get a physical copy of sooner rather than later.
