Instead of a barbecue and some cool graphics this year, prepare for Black history month by investing in actual Black people.

Subscribing to my publishing imprint for $5 or $12 will make a NOTICEABLE difference in my life & in the lives of the authors I champion: leftunreadbooks.binderybooks.com

Presidents' Day is a reminder that presidents are elected to serve the PEOPLE.

Not unelected billionaires.
Not giant corporations.
Not special interests.
Not their families.
Not their ultra-wealthy friends.

The people.

There were protests across the entire country today and I’ve barely seen it covered. This thread is full of them and there will be more in the future.

If you cannot attend a protest, you can at least spread awareness and repost
There are currently protests breaking out in every state.

You probably won't see much about it in the media, though.

We have to do this differently this time around, and one of the ways I hope that we do that is by collectively understanding that people can care about two things at once (or even, gasp, MORE than two things)

especially while people are out there banning books: TALK ABOUT BOOKS!
Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.

in this house we stand for inconvenient queers, trans people who don't give a shit about passing, angry Black women, undocumented immigrants who are tired of being polite to racists; mentally ill people on public transit; and everyone else you're too proper to stand on solidarity with.

Some great orgs and efforts to support and help victims of the LA wildfires (and they’re not all the usual big ones)
Wrote about 13 community food solutions amid the Eaton and Palisades fires for @civileats.com. Through nourishment of our bodies and souls, we can rebuild. Hope this can be a resource on how we can sustain while we take it day by day to reconstruct what has been lost.

With thousands of acres burned and homes lost, this historic L.A. suburb finds nourishment and solace through local food. Here’s how to help.

Creativity is like a houseplant, not an endless well. You need to seek out sunlight, water, and nutrients in art, shows, music, experiences, and more to tend to it. And just like plants it has its dormant and active periods and you may not seem improvement for some time.

Reading Parable of the Talents now by Octavia E Butler. Found this passage relevant to our times. Actually this entire book is relevant to our dystopian reality. #booksky #booktok

I'm on a mission to do more traditional work, and here is one I made last summer. I'm dying to do more, so keep an eye out!!!
