I FINALLY got to swing by my local indie bookstore and pick up @williecarver.bsky.social’s new book Tore All To Pieces. I’m a huge fan of his first book, Gay Poems for Red States, and can’t wait to read this one. Congrats on your 2nd book, Willie!!!

In the UK we can watch The Librarians documentary on iPlayer It's vital. Defend the knowledge base, defend libraries, defend librarians. They are the stewards of our culture and progress.

This magazine is so charming. If it had been around when I was a kid, I certainly would have been a reader. Your illustration is adorable! Here’s mine from a few years ago. We’re just two little library girls at heart!

Thank you to KAZOO magazine for this honor of a lifetime—being represented as a child in their Wonder issue. I’m truly grateful!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

If you’ve been feeling intimidated to pick up a Toni Morrison book, let @tayari.bsky.social ease your worries: “one thing [Morrison] doesn't get enough credit for is that she plots a novel like a house on fire.” #Velshi #VelshiBannedBookClub

As a Christian, I believe the 10 Commandments are sacred and not for political props. Mixing them with politicians turns something holy into a message of power and influence, not faith. My religion teaches reverence for God, not elevating Mike Johnson alongside His word. @interfaithalliance.org

ALA is disappointed that the House Committee on Education & Workforce moved forward dangerous federal book banning legislation yesterday. HR 7661 contains vague, confusing, and overly broad language, inviting government censorship. More from ALA: www.ala.org/news/2026/03... (1/2)

At this point Trump will need to release all of the Epstein files in order to distract from this war in Iran.

HR 7551, the National book ban bill, has passed the markup and is being recommended to the House with amendment. Here’s who voted how. This isn’t over. CALL YOUR HOUSE REPS NOW.

Q: You don’t regret that people might’ve lost important income to support their lives? A: No, I think it was more important to reduce the federal deficit. Q: Ok. Did you reduce the federal deficit? A: No, we didn’t.

“Beware the Ides of March… and Rep. Kellee Dickerson.” Betrayal isn’t just Roman history. She opposed teacher raises, backs pro-charter policies that drain public schools, and tried to imprison librarians. Et tu, Brute? Watch this legislative session. Votes against our schools won’t be forgotten.

Librarians are stronger than every single elected official in the GOP and most of the elected democrats.

There is a severe moral sickness in society when a librarian has more to fear than rich pedos,

“It isn’t that I’m more afraid of public speaking than death; it is that public speaking feels like it could cause my death. But I do it every month because I am a high school librarian in the state of Texas in times such as these.” 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 @la-cac.org www.texasobserver.org/abilene-isd-...

The Greenville Eight protested library discrimination in 1960. Their fight and others like them are a legacy that continues to play out now. bookriot.com/the-greenvil...

Proud to support my dedicated colleague @becalzada.bsky.social for @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social President! She is principled, brave, and focused! I respect all the candidates but hope you will consider supporting Becky!

This is the kind of evil the Bible is talking about.

can't "love libraries" and not fight for them to be fully funded.

Librarianship claims intellectual freedom and mutual support as core values. Collaborating with book-banning advocates who attack school librarians betrays both. Do better, South Carolina State Library.

I’m fortunate to know all candidates in the AASL elections, so I’m stepping back from endorsements except for one. All 3 running would be amazing as Sec/Treas but I want to recognize @captainlibrary.bsky.social: a mentor, collaborator, and friend for years. I’m proud to support him with my vote.
