I'm genuinely amazed the Deanna Gwyn replied to that person's vitriolic email. She didn't reply to my email taking her to task for supporting a budget that would have closed our Public Library.

It seems she only replies to constituents if she agrees with them.

How to not obey in advance: (1) don't self-censor just in case. (2) slow down before complying. (3) act visibly, not quietly.

Don’t obey in advance. Pulling books β€œjust in case” teaches power what it can take. Libraries should stand firm, not shrink. Don’t pre-ban.

Fun fact: Your local bookstore is doing more to protect you and your neighbors than Amazon is.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

BTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.

A national general strike is needed not just to protest the violence, but to acknowledge the absurdity that we’re all just supposed to carry on with our stupid little daily lives amidst the ambient terrorism of an unchecked state militia executing innocent people in the streets of our country.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

My little college town has weekly meetings/trainings, little old ladies in the library printing "Know Your Rights" handouts, and HS students held a walkout last week.

Are folks afraid? Yes! But they're conquering that fear with community action, and it's happening nationwide.

This video shows Donald Trump’s lawless federal agents again out of control. The Senate cannot vote to keep funding this. Every single agent complicit in these horrors should be put on trial at the state level for real accountability.

I genuinely don't know how Clay kept so calm. I'm glad they did, but shit...

How do we stop these fucks?

Wrote a book? Cool, now write the next one. Out on sub? Write the next one. Won an award? Write the next one. Didn’t even get nominated? Write the next one. Querying agents? Write the next one. Waiting for pub day? Write the next one. Always be writing the next one.

If you are in Seattle, please go patronize this store because this is amazing content/promo πŸ˜‚ (laughing to keep from crying, and I do kind of low-key want that orange spider plant I have never seen that before)

Instead of ending the constitution and murdering people, we could have high speed trains and universal health care.

One of my favorite things about Star Trek is when Beverly Crusher is like Jean-Luc, I know this sounds crazy but we’re all trapped inside a dog’s dream, and Picard β€” responsible for thousands of lives β€” is like, Beverly you are my best friend obviously I believe you were are making this top priority

I use Blistex Medicated Lip Ointment when my lip is actively cracked and hurting, and then the Blistex Medicated Lip Balm when it's calloused and I'm wanting to pick at it (ADHD/anxiety cope ftw πŸ™„).

My desire to watch DS9 is how I wound up watching TNG from the beginning. I wanted C O N T E X T πŸ˜‚.

Two more seasons of TNG to go and then I'll finally start DS9!

Haven't we been demanding accountability and transparency? That doesn't appear to be working. We need more than demands. We need to abolish ICE. Gut DHS while we're at it.
