“I learned that hope is not something that you have. Hope is something that you create, with your actions. Hope is something you have to manifest into the world, and once one person has hope, it can be contagious. Other people start acting in a way that has more hope.”

We cannot afford to tire and stop showing up. Every time we show up, our numbers grow. Yes, it will be tough at times, but our fathers or grandfathers went to war over this. Don’t give up and always stay strong. 💪

New Quinniac poll:

If there's a shutdown...

32% blame Dems
31% blame Republicans
22% blame Trump

That's a majority blaming Trump and/or the GOP. Hang tough, Dems.

If you're boycotting AMZ, but still want to buy/read books: please, have a look at whether the relevant big publisher/small press/indie author sells direct

This month and last is hitting everyone's book sales hard, and all of us - trad, small press & indie alike - still need to pay our bills :)

Crockett: Any of us who have ever dated have been hoodwinked a time or two. We’ve sat there and thought he was going to be so great for us because he sold us on all the things and then we realized… they ain’t shit. That’s where we are.

It is March 2, 2025. My plan was to leave the world on March 2, 2024.

What a difference in a year. I still have bad days. But reasons to stay are easier to find each day.

Thankful for family, for friends, for library kids who ARE going to save the world. Once a library kid, always a library kid 💚

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social what can we do when we’ve abandoned our allies and republicans refuse to stand up to anything even if their constituents are angry?

The CFPB costs $800 Million annually and has returned over $21 Billion to consumers cheated by banks, credit card companies, payday lenders, and scammers. Yesterday, the richest man in the world Elon Musk, said he’s going to kill it, hurting millions of working-class American families. #ReopenCFPB

Charlie Chaplin’s earth shattering speech from The Great Dictator (1940) is helping me get out of bed this morning.

It might help you too.

Trump's flood-the-zone strategy means things are going to get missed by the media. That's intentional. So I wanted to point out two major things he's done to deeply hurt workers and consumers.
