A community that bans Wishtree is a community that desperately needs it.
@kaaauthor.bsky.social's book is about a community, nudged by a wise old oak tree, coming together to welcome strangers into their midst. If you haven't read it, you should - it is a masterpiece of storytelling.

Disheartening news from Wisconsin, where #wishtree was removed from a voluntary reading program after parent complaints.
If you don’t want your child to read my book, that’s absolutely your right. But you cannot tell other parents what their children get to read. www.cbs58.com/news/book-ta...

If you're buying gifts for the holidays, maybe consider supporting artists, writers, creators. Gift someone a Patreon, commission an art piece, buy a book, purchase handmade jewelry, etc. Your support means everything.

Tomorrow, Virginians will decide what they want the future of our Commonwealth to look like.
Virginia — you deserve a Governor who will be laser-focused on lowering costs and making life easier. You deserve a Governor who will put you first.
Let’s build that future together.

Not to put too fine a point on it...
Dems: We’ll vote for a budget if you let sick people go to the doctor.
Republicans: Let us take doctors away from sick people or we’re gonna take food away from poor families.

Exactly this.
This is what I know about Republicans: they don’t want us to have healthcare or food. They don’t want us educated. They think people are only worth as much as they can produce in GDP. They don’t like gay people or trans people.They treat women with disdain.
I would never vote for a Republican.

When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.
