Happy Black History Month 🖤✨ Libraries and books are from perfect. The Dewey Decimal System is imperfect. But we will never forget the work of Dorothy B. Porter. She decolonized the Dewey Decimal System. She helped us belong in libraries, in books. We celebrate and thank you, Dorothy B. Porter 💜📚

ICE is writing secret memos claiming power to invade homes without warrants. They're using children as bait. They're killing. Congressional Democrats are about to vote to increase their budget by $18 billion. Call your House rep tonight. The vote may come tomorrow. www.patreon.com/posts/148814...

One of my favorite MLK quotes especially when applied to activism. If you can't march, donate. If you can't donate, check on folks. Our actions don't have to be big to be meaningful and have an impact but we must keep at it!

I genuinely hope Planthony is having a good day today

2026 is trying to win us back but doesn't know how.

I'm at the Judge Doom red, bulgy eyes stage of reading before book award deliberations! Almost here!

My first Nancy strip, for New Year’s Day 2026❣️

Just making sure that 2025 is definitely over
