Each year, my wife @danioliver.bsky.social runs a online fundraiser for @nplusonemag.com called Bookmatch. A donation of any amount (even $1) gets you a hilarious quiz that leads to a excellent, human-curated list of custom book recommendations. Take it now at bookmatchquiz.com

I will also add:

I can do this for evictions in Illinois too, if SNAP benefits being cut off or the government shutdown means you can't make rent.

DO NOT CAVE, DEMS! HOLD THE LINE!
Call the senators and let em know!

Totally!
