I just leveled up my audiobooks.* Did you know you can change the length of time you borrow a book on Libby?! When it says, "Borrowing for..." the length of time it shows is a dropdown! Pick a longer time for big books! * Thanks to my friendly librarian, Abbie!

I love New York. Thank you, Knicks!

Also, no.

Oh no. I am that person. I accidentally emailed the whole listserv. I can never be trusted with a computer ever again. *hanging head of shame*

Now's a great time to support LaVonnia Moore, a rural Georgia librarian who was fired because she approved a library display (set up by community members) that included a book featuring a transgender character. Her legal case enters the mediation process this week. 📚 www.gofundme.com/f/help-lavon...

Spent a week digging out of the stuff that came in while I was on vacation* just to miss Monday being sick. It's fine.**

This came up in a Google search and, in light of the librarian shenanigans (firings) in the news lately, I'm reposting it. Read it again, especially the last paragraph. Make sure your local library knows you expect diverse collections, programming, and staff. raforall.blogspot.com/2025/01/libr...

My sister doesn't work. She's got her own challenges, but she spent the last two decades taking care of my mom. All the money I make from book sales for the next few months are going to go to her. You'll find buy links for the paperback and ebook at the link below. 18/18

Sinners is a perfect film.

Great article about activist Anita Cameron, disability history, and the storytelling project "We Were There Too: Blacks in the Disability Movement"

Our smart_funny_cool pal Joey wrote a book, and I'm excited to read it. You can, too! spot.fund/cr7jmlxsc #horror #IndieAuthors #booksky

THIS MONTH ONLY!!! To celebrate my books NO LONGER BEING AVAILABLE FOR KINDLE, I'm offering all 3 as an Itch mini-bundle for just $3. That's 80% off probably?!? Includes BOTH books in the space-fantasy adventure comedy PERCIVAL GYNT series + the neurodivergent AF mystery comedy A DARK HOLE DARKLY.

I posted my first full finding aid today. Am I an archivist now?

Thank goodness the first day of 2026 is over. How many are left to go?

It helps that we are translating She-Ra to Star Wars. I started with Adora as Luke, Horde as the dark side, etc., keeping it simple. Kid: oh so Hordak is Snoak and Catra is Kylo Ren? Me: ... Good job, no notes #She-Ra

"If we truly want to support dysregulated students, especially neurodivergent ones, we need to stop putting the burden of managing big emotions solely on them & instead take a hard look at the environments we create." From @endseclusion.bsky.social: endseclusion.org/2025/07/10/n... #neurodiversity

Yup. I just had a request today for something we clearly didn't/wouldn't have in the archive.

And that's it!!! I think our winners are gonna be these (mine, wife's, kiddo's). What are yours??? 10/

My parents were Republicans because George H.W Bush signed the Americans with Disabilites Act and the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. A generation of people with disabilities went to college, got jobs and lived independently because of IDEA. abcnews.go.com/Politics/spe...

Happy ADHD Awareness Month! You can find my latest novel, A DARK HOLE DARKLY, in this Itch ebook bundle. DARKLY is a comedy, a mystery, a piece of genre fiction *about* genre fiction, and a bit of a (low-key?) primal scream into the [achingly neurotypical] void. 💙📚⚡️ itch.io/b/3300/adhd-...

When the NY Liberty are out, then I'm Team Coach Hammon. #wnba

My mom has covid. First time. I said get yourself some Paxlovid. Urgent care gave her a prescription for Lagevrio. OK, but she asked at the pharmacy before getting it, and it will cost her $1074, so she didn't get it. Nevermind that it might save future costs. I hate our medical system so much.

If Robert Redford had only been the youthful star of "Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid" and "All the President's Men," Dayenu. It would have been enough. If he'd only directed "Ordinary People" and "Quiz Show," Dayenu. If he'd only founded and nurtured all things Sundance, Dayenu. #RIP

That Liberty game was almost too exciting. My poor heart! #NYLiberty

There are two Star Wars rose shirts at Hot Topic, and I like them, but they are only in men's sizes 🙄 #RoseTicoIsTheBest

Even if you're not into your autistic person's passions, you can follow along with them, and make them feel seen: "I wouldn’t be interested in those topics but then I know it's something that makes her happy […] you want to make your kids feel heard and happy." journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Captain: Janeway First officer: Spock Doctor: Bashir (post-war) Security: Noonien Singh Helm: Paris? Ortegas? Paris for now... Sci/Ops: Data Engineering: Torres

Does this mean I should start watching Foundation?

PS If you do want to support disabled authors, I'll be hosting the Disability Pride Month Book Bonanza starting on Friday, with two Itch bundles! Bundle One: itch.io/b/3170/disab... Bundle Two: itch.io/b/3173/disab...

What's an animated character that you identify with closely?

I do an exercise where I give 1/2 the class primary sources blaming soldiers for the Boston Massacre & half blaming the crowd w/out telling students there’s 2 source sets. They answer who’s to blame & what happened using their sources. Then we do a reveal & talk biases 🗃️ rmgunter.com/posts/901-in...

Something like this definitely happened.

9 yo gave Superman 10/10, making it the best movie since Dogman!
