A happy Presidents Day to every dumbass who voted for this insane orange vulgarian motherfucker because you swallowed the FoxNews hysterics that the price of eggs, brown folks and trans kids were a threat to the republic. You assholes will never be forgiven.

Yes thank you I request a refresh of this hashtag

Please, please watch and listen and PAY ATTENTION. THIS is exactly what Democrats are standing up against. And EXACTLY what Republicans are forcing on ALL OF US.

Wildlife photos I shot on a recent hike in a local park. I love Great Blue Herons, and this guy just loved posing for us for the longest time! The red-bellied woodpecker was a lucky quick capture as it hopped up the tree trunk.

Had a great time seeing @susanorlean.bsky.social and @connieschultz.bsky.social at Cuyahoga County Public Library Parma Snow yesterday! Two of my favorite women in conversation together, fabulous and funny!

THEY ARE STEALING YOUR FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS LITTLE BY LITTLE.

A powerful visual.

If you're in Green County, Ohio, you'll have a levy on your November ballot to help continue funding the library. It is crucial to get "yes" here or else there will be tremendous cuts. Your state is failing libraries. www.daytondailynews.com/local/greene...

Let me repeat: My child is not a problem to be solved. He's a whole human who deserves a dignified life, period. My child is not a problem to be solved. He's a whole human who deserves a dignified life, period.

So here's the deal. My birthday is in 10 days, and every year, I try to do something meaningful in the lead up. But to say I've been less inspired this year would be an understatement. Not doing anything would feel bad, though, so I'm going to do something and I'd love your help.

I filled out the forms. 2 of my books were stolen. Plus 4 of my deceased Dad's scientific papers! Unclear if the latter theft will get me any money. I'm not holding my breath. $3000 per stolen work, purportedly. We'll see if Anthropic (not Open AI) indeed pays up. I'm skeptical.

First #SMPSpree Fall Hiking Spree hike of the year, Bluebird Trail at Liberty Park. We had phenomenal weather and a cheerful knowledgeable park ranger guide. #summitmetroparks

Looking forward to reading & recommending this new fun fall YA romance! Enjoyed chatting with author @mistywilsonwrites.bsky.social at her book release at #thelearnedowlbookshop

If you want to read a new book coming out but don't want to buy it, a great thing you can do is ask your local library to order it. The more requests they get, the more likely they are to acquire it and then lots of people will get to read it who othewise wouldn't.

“Do something nice for yourself” OK, I’ll watch this video of corgis wearing life jackets floating down a stream in corgi shaped rubber rings on a loop.

Woohoo!! Horsey book mail! Thank you @thesirbarton.bsky.social for reminding me of the @kentuckypress.bsky.social warehouse sale! Happy birthday and Merry Christmas to me! Filling in gaps in my racing book collection is always fun, especially when saving money. 📚🏇

Exciting news! We’re thrilled to announce that tapir Yuna gave birth to a rare and endangered Malayan tapir calf Sunday night. The newborn, covered in distinctive white spots and stripes resembling a fuzzy walking watermelon, is only the second tapir born in our 120-year history.

“Women over 40 are invisible.” That’s not entirely true. If we were totally invisible we would’ve already robbed you all blind, bought a deserted island, and be spending our days petting cats and casting spells.

This was the outside temperature tonight when I got off work. (Expected to fall to -12 tonight!) Winter, I'm so done with you already.

Got this lovely postcard today from a Postcrosser in Ukraine! It was mailed Dec. 7, and I'm just impressed it got here at all, let alone in 6 weeks. I hope the sender is still safe and sound. @postcrossing.com

New Year's to me means lots of board gaming. Had fun playing one from my collection, "Situation 4," an oldie but goodie jigsaw puzzle-based team game.

Petry is defying gravity! #wicked 🔊Sound on!

I love my public library's book sale!! 😍 I hit the mother lode! Found something in many of my favorite topics. (Plus some gifts, which I am NOT posting here) And those Making of Star Wars and Jedi books were quite the bargain, oh my! 😀
