I like cats and dogs and travel. Native to Rhode Island, grew up in Maryland, but my heart belongs to the land of the long leaf Pine. Feminist.

It still boggles my mind that so many people couldn't grasp last year how significantly more morally depraved a second Trump term would be in comparison to the first. And how so many people still can't comprehend that our national crisis isn't about politics, but simple morality.

"Fuck ICE" is a patriotic sentiment. Perhaps the most patriotic in this moment.

Shorter JD Vance: You are not allowed to criticize ICE.

Goes along with shorter Pete Hegseth: You are not allowed to criticize the military's action at Wounded Knee.

And shorter Donald Trump: You are not allowed to criticize me.

It's full-on authoritarianism, all the way down.
JD Vance is now using the term "blood libel" to describe criticism of ICE, saying, "The Democrats and the media — because they so hate the idea of a real border — are engaging in a kind of blood libel against ICE agents."

Somewhere, our ancestors wept.

Republicans don't need a single democrat to keep the government open. If the government shuts down, it's because republicans want it to.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

The newest and most powerful A.I. technologies — so-called reasoning systems from companies like OpenAI, Google and the Chinese start-up DeepSeek — are generating more errors, not fewer. As their math skills have notably improved, their handle on facts has gotten shakier.
A.I. Hallucinations Are Getting Worse, Even as New Systems Become More Powerful
A new wave of “reasoning” systems from companies like OpenAI is producing incorrect information more often. Even the companies don’t know why.

If you needed any further proof that the arrest of Judge Dugan was a propaganda opportunity and a fear tactic, here you go.

Nothing about this is normal—it’s authoritarianism!

The more people say “a woman’s worth is in marrying young and having children” the more I’m grateful for the example of Jane Austen, who turned down a proposal of marriage so she could keep writing and whose six novels are an enduring testament to all a woman is capable of doing.

As the U.S. shifts into a volatile political landscape targeting critical thinking, I want to share an important reminder to the #booksky community:

The only way to preserve literature is by collecting physical copies.

I know, Kindle users, it sucks—but your digital copy can be deleted any time.
