All of the Women by Allison Russell It's fear I can bear 'Cause I'm stronger than eggshells, I'm tougher than luck Never been despised so much or hit so hard, or hit so hard I couldn't get back up (I couldn't get back up)

Packed up the library I curated for my English teacher kiddo's first high school classroom. Ended up with around 75 books & graphic novels which will hopefully give the kids plenty of choices. It was really fun building this and I look forward to continuing to play the book fairy. #booksky 📚💙

Happy Father's Day to those who fill the role, regardless of gender.

Project "make a catnip meadow for Mr." is going well. He has enough now to lay in it.

As a librarian I can confirm this. When building a high school classroom library I was told not to get books that were obviously queer. I'm trying to find "undercover" work, i.e. "normal" ya works that just happen to have some queer characters, but it's hard. bookriot.com/queer-books-...

Jesus fucking Christ, white liberals are exhausting. The Democrats are not going to save you. They are complicit in everything happening.

@herwife.online and I are anxiously awaiting tomorrow so we can order this book!

We have a visitor.

"I was a history major so I feel like I have to be on the right side of it" I was a history major too, and it's that plus my excellent pattern recognition (thanks, autism!) which allows me to see that we are really and truly fucked as a country.

I'm not sure if I could choose a better person to sing the anthem. Happy Juneteenth my friends. #USDemocraxy

I've already shared this but I'm gonna do it again because I need this message. Not enough bullets Not enough guns You can kill the bird But not the bird's song youtu.be/RX18CK_TNXU?...

💯 This is who we are. Again.

This is the most wholesome thing I have seen in a long time. This is why I'm in a community choir and want to do more outreach. There's nothing I can do about the crazy at the state & federal level, but I can support my community and build joy. music.youtube.com/watch?v=RX18...

Explain your @ I first started using GrudgeCat on Storygraph (which is an independent, black owned business, 10,000% better than Goodreads, check it out readers). I was watching Discovery at the time and was inspired by Grudge. The cat, not the man. 👑

Art from @reforest-kelley.bsky.social arrived today! The DS9 union poster goes perfectly with my We Shall Not Be Moved poster.

Repost if your account is a safe place for the trans community! 🩵🩷🤍

@herwife.online and I reorganized the music wall to feature our new print from the Katie Pruitt concert last night.

We met Katie Pruitt!! Happy Pride y'all! 🩷

Waiting for Katie

Earrings arrived just in time for the Katie Pruitt concert tonight!

More book mail! Today's haul

Checking on his 'nip crop

I feel this in my bones

Book mail! I'm especially excited for this batch.

I wasn't allowed to take ballet as a child so I did as an adult. This was my first recital, my class was "summer" in a four seasons themed show. Sadly that class didn't survive COVID, and I miss my friends from there, but it was fun while it lasted.

Seeking recommendations for books and graphic novels in English and Spanish for a high school. Kids are 14+, primarily Latinx. Many lack confidence in their English reading skills, so middle grade recommendations are welcome. Particularly of need is non-fiction interesting to teens. 📚💙 #booksky

Book mail!

Sometimes you just have to hide under your desk until you can people again.

This makes me think of @herwife.online and me in our garden. So sweet

There's no one more joyous than a trans woman. Basking in her glow is a gift.

Fuck you very much, @jama.com (Journal of the American Medical Association) Note what's missing in this headline. The AMA President is deep in RFKJ's pockets, expect more trans and queer erasure in medicine.

Trans people are harming no one. They aren't starting wars, they aren't stealing tax dollars for vanity projects, they aren't destroying democracy, they aren't undoing health and safety standards for corporate cronies. The people making these fucking laws are the ones doing all that.

I grew up in rural Washington, not Georgia, but everything else about this song reflects my childhood (and adulthood) experience. youtu.be/SqWtfkcUuoQ?...

This bunny let @herwife.online and me get reaaalllllyyyy close before hopping off. I'm thinking I better check the yard for babies

Having a lovely day running errands with my beautiful wife, @herwife.online and we found this great little Thai restaurant, Siam Square. The food was so good y'all It's in the same plaza as Busted Bra Ann Arbor, which has THE NICEST STAFF EVER. Seriously ladies, check them out bustedbrashop.com

When a librarian's child becomes a high school English teacher, there is no other option than to become The Book Fairy. I am unlikely to have grandbabies, but I'm happy to live vicariously through a whole class of kids. Today's haul: * The first five Percy Jackson books * The One and Only Ivan

Go Ann Arbor Library! I'm proud of you.

The wife @herwife.online and I are very excited for this book coming out soon!

For our fiftieth birthdays this summer, the wife and I are doing a concert whirlwind. 5 concerts in the next 5 months. First up, Katie Pruitt. "Her body is my temple and her soul is my savior" I need no other religion than to worship my beautiful wife, @herwife.online

Rest in Power
