“No women will lead a House committee for the first time in two decades after House Republicans revealed their list of committee leaders for the 119th Congress on Thursday. No people of color were selected, either.”

No women will lead House committees for first time in 2 decades
The 17 standing committees will be dominated by white men when the new Congress is seated on Jan. 3. No people of color were selected, either.

the quality and range of services public libraries provide relative to what they cost is nothing short of a miracle imo. But yeah, sure, “run government like a business.” 📚

Have I read all the books I own? No. Will I keep buying more while re-reading my favourites? Of course. My bookshelf, my rules.

This holiday season, take a moment to visit your local bookstore. It’s about more than finding a great book—it’s about supporting the small businesses that keep our communities thriving.

From an romance author perspective most of my income comes from Amazon’s kindle direct publishing and overdrive. So if you’re feeling anti-amazon support your local libraries and ask them to carry more e-romance. My print sale are like 7% of my income.
I love indie bookstores, but saying online vendors like Amazon only financially support "some billionaire" is BS. Many authors depend on e-book royalties for their living. Ordering print from indies benefits the store, yes, but what's the author making vs. a corporation like HarperCollins or PRH?

If you are in New England, An Unlikely Story, The Purple Couch Bookshop, All She Wrote Books, Books on the Square, and Belmont Books are all amazing bookstores with fantastic staff and selections!
Since we’re talking about how much billionaires suck again, here’s a reminder that your local indie bookstore deserves your business this holiday season. They have gift cards and are happy to mail stuff out. Same goes for @bookshop-org.bsky.social. Buy books. Give books. Support bookstores.

🔥🔥A 2021 study found that Medicaid expansion as part of the ACA led to a substantial reduction in mortality, primarily driven by reductions in disease-related deaths. A 2018 study in the Journal of Political Economy found that, Medicaid reduced infant and child mortality since the 1960s and 1970s.🔥🔥

This is my periodic reminder to everybody who loses their appetite when they get stressed out to do whatever it takes to keep eating - set reminders, ask a trusted friend, whatever - because there have been years of downstream effects from my inadvertently collapsing my health in 2020 or so

Patreon is truly a blessing because, sure yes money, but also it gives me somewhere to scream about sneak peeks over stuff I can't talk about publicly. Anyways, they're getting a look at the flipthrough of the upcoming Neon Gods special edition.

Sex workers in Belgium are now entitled to health insurance, pensions, sick days, maternity leave, safety protections and formal employment contracts under a new law.
This is the first law of its kind in the world.

Many ADHD/autistic people are made to feel unproductive when actually their hyperfocus and differences in attention means that they likely produce twice the amount of work as anyone else in a few hours then need the next few hours to rest. Output is less consistent but there.

Word of the day is a favourite, from old Scots.
To ‘tartle’ is to hesitate while introducing someone because you have completely forgotten their name.
