My favorite armchair comment is Americans don‘t understand authoritarianism, because so many of you don’t count Black people as Americans. Learn the history or shut up.

Cops are cops are cops are cops are cops are cops are cops are cops are cops, etc.
One thing is for certain after this week: Local cops in sanctuary cities—Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York—are working in lock step with DHS and ICE.

Don’t change your subject headings. There is no library jail. Keep using the real names not these fake ones.

Obeying in advance is worse than those doing the change because when you obey with soenthing that is clearly wrong you are putting false information into official “fact” places.
Librarians doing anticipatory obedience 😡 🤢 💔

Last night, 99% of House Republicans voted to codify the Trump-Musk coup.

Every Democrat except Rep. Golden stood united against this extreme MAGA spending bill.

Senate Democrats still have the power to stop this sham of a government funding bill by holding the line. Contact your senators ASAP. 👇

Y'all see how the Eagles just beat the Chiefs ass.

Very cutsey. Very demure. VERY DEI.

With the Eagles obliterating the Chiefs, now is a good time to remind everyone that the last time the Eagles won the Super Bowl they refused to go to the White House because of Donald.

When the Patriot Act was passed, libraries got requests for patrons’ borrowing history. We were prohibited from disclosing those requests.

We deleted and shredded those records and stopped tracking reading history for that reason.

ALSO.

Seeing talk about some people refusing to leave evacuation areas because they want to "save their homes." Has me thinking about one of the women I interviewed for this piece, who pleaded with a neighbor who lived on lower ground not to do this. He came to her home as she asked. His was swept away.
