Hey #Booksky if you’re in the US and looking to step away from the zon for physical books can I highly recommend Thrift Books?
They donate and partner with non-profits to support school libraries in underserved areas, and prison libraries. Plus, the book prices are *very good*

To all who have shown up to the protests across the U.S., thank you. I can't make it to Sacramento, but I am watching a live feed and I'm grateful to those who came to fight for our democracy today. I'm with you all in spirit.

I can think of at least eight federal laws that have been broken by Musk and his goons over the last few days, and at least two provisions of the U.S. Constitution.
They must be stopped.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

I'm truly glad that I left Meta platforms, X, etc. (and am attempting to move away from Google based services), but they have so much data from myself and other users. The devices and phone carrier services we use are also not trustworthy. I feel that our privacy is a distant dream of the past.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.

Our bad ass woman today is Martha P. Cotera. She is a librarian, writer, and influential activist of both the Chicano Civil Rights Movement and the Chicana Feminist movement.
