"More than a million" for Jimmy, yet Disney has been on the BDS list

most days i am just waiting for the library to open #booksky

did not even notice i passed my completely arbitrary reading goal of 52 books (53 so far) #booksky

man i'm so glad audiobooks exist, haven't been able to concentrate on physical books this month but am still reading because i at least can concentrate with my ears (sometimes it's the other way around idk how the brain works lol) #booksky

As we boycott vile companies, a reminder that many US public libraries offer: 1) Ebooks & audiobooks via the Libby app. Pro tip: use the “notify me” tag to request your library add books by trans, disabled, & BIPOC authors! 2) TV & film streaming via Kanopy 3) Language learning via Mango 💙📚 And:

In case y'all wanna take things further the app 'No Thanks!' is a great resource for businesses globally to boycott due to their funding of the genocide in Palestine. I've used this app for a little over a year I think, and Disney been on the list.

This is what I mean when I say they can't fix it. it's not broken, it's structurally indifferent to truth It's built on "likely" Sometimes likely = true Often it isn't

The notion that Republicans are the more real Americans, whose authenticity Democrats must pay tribute to with imitation, persistence even though it is contradicted by more and more actual empirical evidence.

If it didn't have power, if it didn't threaten them, they wouldn't try to erase it. Never doubt the power that you have.

I finally downloaded the Kanopy app (library streaming app) and they have a kids section that's unlimited viewing and it has old episodes of Reading Rainbow 😭 #booksky

Only 16% of you are reading for pleasure? I know there's a lot of entertainment out there, but reading can help you take yourself out of the world where everything's on a screen. And make good things happen inside you. So renew that library card & get cracking.

Kanopy is seriously a public treasure, just need a library card and internet access - just a plethora of titles from around the world, old and new

Someone is either sawing or leaf blowing… it’s 7:30am?!

They say “arrive at your appointment 15 minutes early” ok I’ll arrive 20 minutes early. And wait 25 minutes to seen 🏆

Those who are waiting for Novavax, and those in states with more restrictions, may not be able to get COVID vaccines yet are in a tricky situation. Please hang in there! While there’s a good chance the antivax CDC panel may try to further restrict access, it’s unlikely they can pull them entirely.

Let's all to take a deep breath & understand that we have reached the phase in fascism where if they want to declare you a criminal, you are a criminal. You can not magically avoid it, or do exactly the right thing to stay off the list. Fascism must always have enemies, and one day you will be one.

Ironically the AI pushers keep telling us resistance is futile in academia, and that this is how mathematics teachers reacted to the introduction of the calculator, to which I would say, AT LEAST THE CALCULATOR DOESNT MAKE SHIT UP

"Porn bans" ALWAYS lead to trans bans Michigan bill seeks to lock up trans people for posting selfies.

This fantasy of "civil" debate that white cis hetero men (and some people who share some of those identities) have is only ever safely possible for those people. They get to debate the civil rights, the actual lives, health, and livelihoods of people they will never be.

I don’t want to get laid off cuz buying books is the only thing giving me enough serotonin to keep me going 🫠

This is class solidarity. In case you’re at all confused.

Allergies are terrorizing me again 😩

official notice of round two of layoffs happening in winter/spring :/ directly due to defunding by the regime. truly, i dont even know how this org can continue running with so many staff reductions, but that seems to be where most nonprofit orgs are right now, barely functioning

Unreal. "Forwarding these names, a well-known practice from the McCarthy Era, may well subject a number of faculty, staff, or students to widespread surveillance—a breathtaking breach of trust, ethics, and justice." - Judith Butler, whose name was among the 160 shared with the Trump administration

Liberals are doing the right’s job for it. By lionizing Charlie Kirk and refusing to acknowledge his real political project, they’re giving power to the right’s completely predictable effort to use his death to forward their goal of an authoritarian, fascist state.

I've been trying to take solo walks, meaning without my dog. For 1, because I think the walking pad is not good for my bad (PT agreed), and 2, my dog is too old to walk fast or far so I need to go alone, and 3, someday I will have to solo walk regularly without her so I'm trying to normalize it 😟

waking up and having to do stretches before i can be even moderately functional is very annoying as someone who is not a morning person

I know so many people unemployed/recently laid off, so many. And so many organizations being forced to shut down after being defunded by this administration. It continues to just feel like we're in free fall, but there doesn't seem to be an end in sight?

High pain day, took the day off and I know I should go for a walk to move a little and it probably will feel good but I’m so tired 😩

There's HEEEEEERE artologica.etsy.com Original watercolors that reject AI. One of each, unique.

Goodwill has upcharged anything spooky already 😒 so this should have been $5 but the cashier charged me regular price so it was $2 👏🏻🥳 #booksky #thrifting

Several states are moving fast to remove barriers, but their power over insurance coverage is more limited than their power to permit pharmacists to give vaccines.…

PBS cuts 15% of jobs in wake of federal funding cut My story for NPR www.npr.org/2025/09/04/n...

Personally victimized by the WI book fest not releasing their schedule for another week 😩

So you need two people and the AI to do what used to be the job of one writer or one graphic designer. Sounds efficient.

a miracle happened and a PT appt opened up for this week, now i dont have to wait 2 more weeks 🥹

Colby Wilkens, who faked her Indigenous identity, has returned to announce a new book that was formerly written with native characters but now their identities have been erased LOL LOL LOL And it’s basically Our Flag Means Death fanfic LOL LOL LOL Cancel culture isn’t real for white women.

Hoping I can fall asleep tonight without a pain pill cuz my stomach cannot handle it 😩😩😩 the worst side effect ☹️

Happy Labor Day! Posting this again to remind you that organizing a union in your workplace is possible and doable buttondown.com/ninocipri/ar...

My spine feels like the end of a jenga game, precarious, shaky and could just collapse at any moment

took the canoe out despite a back pain flare and welp, i am in much worse shape! but like, it could have been fine ya just never know 🫠😑

how do you not just spend all of your money on your niblings though. like my self control is out the window

When a top CDC scientist resigns citing eugenicist rhetoric from federal health agencies, everyone should absolutely be paying attention.

A reminder that this is what the path to a full ban on vaccines looks like. No one is banning vaccines for everyone overnight. Just like with abortion, they will carve off one group at a time and hope the those still eligible respond with gratitude and self-interest instead of anger and solidarity.

I've not had much success with lit fic this year (it's probably my least read genre these days), but just finished The Mighty Red by Louise Erdrich and loved it! #booksky

sibling group chat is blowing up cuz my mom scheduled a family get together and only asked one of four children if they were available lol this is a regular occurrence that she has frequently been talked to about 😑

Here in Colorado, legislators from both parties are trying to grant AI companies immunity from consumer protection lawsuits. Like immunity for gun manufacturers. Politicians will be bought off by all these tech bros as their products continue to kill us.
