Make this go viral.

When you are faced with the mendacity of Trump, Hegseth, & Johnson, it’s pointless to try & get clarity from them. Go to the trusted sources. If you want to understand how we got here and what Trump & Netanyahu are up to, I present to you she who knows: Christine Amanpour. Breaking. It. Down.

Reading is a privilege that many have died for. Don’t take it for granted

My job is often hard and I complain a lot. But a 6 yo just spent 5 minutes talking to me about his favorite movies, favorite foods, and his birthday. This is our first conversation all school year bc he's usually crying. I'm so proud of him. I really do love this gig.

The executive targets his opponents w/bogus investigations. His government disappears people w/out due process and vanishes them beyond reach. He usurps legislative power, controls public funds at will, & consolidates power. Loyalty is expected — or else. Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here.

It’s National Library Week & here are a few things libraries have available outside of books: Wifi, computer, & printer access Musical instruments Museum passes Movies Clubs & classes Craft & science kits Gardening tools & free seeds Games & toys Just some reasons to support our libraries.

I really enjoyed The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store by James McBride. I saw a lot of mixed reviews and extended my Libby hold multiple times. Turns out a story about race relations, family, and community was exactly what I needed this week. #bookishblackgirls #blackbooksky

I am so jealous of people who can DNF a book with no guilt. I was trying to explore more genres and ended up struggling through a book of short stories. I feel bad because the stories are written well, I just don't like them.

Talked with @andersoncooper360.bsky.social about what is, and what IS NOT, DEI. And what Trump & his confederates are trying to accomplish with erasing the accomplishments of non-white people, women and LGBTQ people.

Finally got The Love Lyric by Kristina Forest from Libby. These people I live with bet not bother me tonight. #bookishblackgirls

Payless will always be that girl. I miss her so much 😢

Choking. Especially when it's water.

Greed

The number and success of slave rebellions in the US. There were many and them folks were terrified.

Showing sincere kindness to the kids I work with. People are horrible to chicken.

To my Black folk: As February draws to a close, remember that our survival in this country is an accomplishment in itself. Even if you just live a normal life, work a normal job, or take care of your family - WE'RE ALL PART OF BLACK HISTORY.

Everyone needs to see this. Be ready to deny access, even if you don't know any immigrants. Let them waste time and you might save a family somewhere else. #Disobey #blue #fotus #FBR #immigrants #TruthWarriors #theresistance #resist #FBPE #FuckICE #SaveOurDemocracy #sanctuary #organize #fucktrump

I love cozy mystery shenanigans. Sure the airhead turned detective is almost shot by the murderer in her bakery, but thankfully the nosey neighbor was there to save her. Now she can win the bake-off tomorrow. Ignore the dead body in the kitchen. 😆 #bookishblackgirls #Blackbooksky

Hey you all, QueenChanleen is a dear friend of mine and fellow Filipino content creator. She's one of the sweetest people in the world and recently she had to have a heart and lung transplant. If you could please donate or share her Gofundme it would mean a lot. www.gofundme.com/f/help-queen...

Sitting in the mixed emotions of finishing a good book 🥰 that doesn't fit any of the prompts in your StoryGraph challenges 😦 #bookishblackgirl #blackbooksky

All members of Congress swore allegiance to the Constitution. They didn't ask just Democrats to defend America against all enemies. The house is on fire, y'all. I'll do everything I can to extinguish that flame, but I am begging my Republican colleagues to remember their oath.

show love to people. just because.

This whole saga has taught me a very important lesson… I gotta massively increase my hateration. I don't hate nearly hard enough!

Oh look, Trump just reversed Biden's limiting excessive bank fees and not allowing medical debt to affect your credit rating. I'm sure EVERYONE will be happy paying more bank fees and having their medical damage their credit rating. I WILL NEVER FORGIVE THEM!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬

Finished reading The Color Purple tonight. Of course it was amazing. I've owned it for decades and finally decided to feed my soul with the beautiful classic #bookishblackgirls #blackbooksky

I wrote to my idiot reps. They won't do a thing but at least I said something. That and keeping my purse closed is all I have at the moment.

House Resolution 899 has been introduced to Congress by Kentucky GOP Rep. Thomas Massie to abolish the U.S. Department of Education. Follow this link to get alerts www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

This month, we commemorate the legacy of Black people & recognize that Black History is American history. Teaching it is teaching America’s history. Acknowledging it means telling the whole truth. Let us never forget that.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

5 ways to celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth (cause the fed govt doesn’t run your house) 1. Find out what Sojourner Truth REALLY said 2. Buy a Black horror, scifi or fantasy book 3. Listen to “Naima” by John Coltrane 4. Send the victims of the LA fires in Altadena a few coins 5. Get a library card

Reel is definitely worth the hype. Kennedy Ryan did her thing with that one. #bookishblackgirls

if you see this, can you repost? 14 days. 14 BLACK female authors 14 valentine’s day stories #booksky #blackbooksky #blackhistorymonth

Did you know? In 1968, 24 Black men in Pittsburgh revolutionized emergency medicine. The Freedom House Ambulance Service was established to provide emergency medical care to underserved Black neighborhoods—creating the world’s first paramedics.

Happy Black History Month!

Another PSA... Disabled doesn't mean can't do anything. It means can't do certain very specific things without support.

Why do we parents feel so sad when our kids are sick? The kid has been napping all morning and instead of enjoying the peace, I'm like MY POOR BABY!!!😭😭😭😭

Stephen Miller and Homan’s goal is to shock and awe blue cities to terrify whole communities. They’ll deliberately targeting businesses, schools, hospitals churches and other places of worship. They want Americans to be afraid. Mayors and governors must stand up to them. Lawyers get on standby.

I finally got my hands on Reel by Kennedy Ryan last night. It's a 16h audiobook but y'all said it's worth it so I'm going to make the time. #bookishblackgirls

Looking for my #bookishblackgirls from my favorite group. Lets link "Black Girls Read Too".

If you’re a federal govt employee targeted for leave or termination on the basis of your DEI work, please file an EEO (Equal Employment Opportunity) complaint & retain legal counsel. I’m a former NIH PI. Happy to refer you to a law firm that has successfully sued the govt many times! Pls repost 🙏❤️

If you don’t want a ✨diverse workforce,✨ you don’t deserve a ✨diverse consumer base✨ #DEI

I am so disgusted with #Target. I realized today that they really don't have anything I need. #Costco and #Aldi will get money.
