“The ICE warehouse jail in Merrimack is not opening. For the people who would have been detained there and their loved ones, this is a real win. It also proves something larger: detention expansion is not inevitable. Everyday people can stop these facilities.” afsc.org/news/how-sma...

reshare for alt text, republicans and rich people who want to privatize mail have been lying about the USPS and trying to push this narrative longer than I've been alive, and imposing massive financial burdens on it to make it "insolvent"

You could say that Rock n Roll was born 111 years ago today in Arkansas, but probably not where you'd think. Before there was a Chuck Berry or Little Richard, there was those who wanted to be like her. Rosetta Nubin better known as Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the godmother of Rock was born on this day

My most recent take on Timothee Chalamet. I think he's glimpsed the writing on the wall and he's flailing. Not an excuse but a reason.

This is what I wanted from my "all nuance 2026!" I didn't know FD Signifier before this video, but now I want his thoughts on everything!

This is really heartbreaking. My heart goes out to everyone affected by the fire in Glasgow. You know the drill. Donate. Boost. Help however you can. Let’s help turn dreams that were burned to ash back into dreams that are coming true.

Couldn't let the day pass without celebrating women! I try do this everyday with my writing, like my books HER OWN HAPPINESS and THE BENNET WOMEN #womensday #plussize #books #kindleunlimitedromance #kindleunlimited #audiobooks #audible

I was supposed to attending my first-ever #Awp . Unfortunately, this happened. Now I am home, with no sense of smell, watching my similarly be-plagued kiddo play Nintendo (her symptoms are thankfully very mild).

Don't love the proposed plans for the monstrous new ballroom at the White House? Yeah, I don't either. Tomorrow (March 5) at noon is the deadline for the public to submit comments to the National Capital Planning Commission. Get on it! #historicpreservation savingplaces.org/public-comme...

Classic me, I made a whole video to go with this post and forgot to include the link😅 Anyway, here is my thoroughly hinged rant about why Bertha Mason is not a WOC. Thought about calling it "That's a White Woman" but I think youtube shadowbans. #blackbooksky #booksky #WutheringHeights #JaneEyre

Shout to @thatpaulachase.bsky.social and @lakitawilson.bsky.social who are repping for suburban Black girls in middle grade and YA! I love to see it! Between the three of us, we have books for #blackgirls from middle school through college! #blackbooksky #blacksky #books #blackauthors #blackwomen

I gotta emphasize the EJ's middle class fam. One big reason I wrote this book is to rep for the kind of suburban Black girl I just didn't see. EJ, like me, is from majority Black Prince George's County, MD. A place getting its shine as the setting for #BeyondtheGates #blacksky #blackbooksky

They could shift the money from ICE, but they don't want to. Congress could have come back into session, but they don't want to. They could talk about giving #ICE a professional code of conduct, but they don't want to.

One week left to get a #KindleDeal on THE BENNET WOMEN! Snag it for -EJ, my thicc Blerdy dark-skinned heroine -Will, her snobby/hot #AsianAmerican MMC -the P&P style dislike to lovers - #Femalefriendship and #transrep in EJ's bestie, Jamie -EJ's loving middle class Black fam #blackbooksky #booksky

And my troop's World Thinking Day is a wrap! I'm so proud o my Juniors, but so tired.

Two things I am certain of: 1) Bertha Mason was not a #blackwoman ! 2) Emerald Fennel loves THE WIDE SARGASSO SEA The Wuthering Heights conversation stirred up a lot feelings about me, particularly about my favorite Bronte novel. #WutheringHeights #janeeyre #blackbooksky #booksky #author #rant

HAPPY WEDNESDAY! The snow is melting! The sun is shining! Saturday will be in the 50s! #goodmorning #dmv #dc #weather

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Hey Friends, today would be awesome day to make BECOMING number 1 on Netflix. Because it's a really good documentary...among other reasons.
