Cat Shepard

It's banned book week! I have read many on the list, but have a soft spot for Bridge to Terabithia, the first book I read as a kid and thought, this is literature! Let every kid discover their own Terabithia in a book of their choosing.
#kidlit, #bannedbooksweek,

Thank you.

Blueskyism? Did he do a poll before he put that out?

Vent away. Vent as much as you need.

Beautiful sentiment and beautiful kitty 🐱

Intergalactic embarrassment.

Can't wait to be inspired!

WGBH. I’ll support them over corporate media anytime.

Take a break from current events and escape to Kittybunkport with Chowder and Crackers to solve the mystery of the haunted lighthouse. Is it lobster ghosts? Read this not scary at all (or is it?) picture book by @scottrothmanwriter.bsky.social and Zachariah OHora to find out! 🦞

Such a hopeful list with room to spare for others.

I joined the ACLU ten minutes after the 2000 election was stolen.

I have never had any interest in going to Florida and I am certainly not going now. Come up to Massachusetts! Boston, Cape Cod and the Berkshires are great concentration camp free vacation destinations.

Another reason I’m glad I deleted my instagram account and never used facebook. I won’t put up with anymore fascists in my life

I want to stay in a united country, and still think it’s possible, but if we can’t, I am happy to live in Massachusetts and New England with Boston as the capital. New York and New Jersey can join us too. But I hope it doesn’t come to that.

The no kings protest coincides with the Pride parade in Boston. The website says all protesters are welcome.

Massachusetts here. We subsidize lots of red states. And they are attacking us? No more.

Next the so called Heritage Foundation.

Thank you. Send her back to Somerville and let her go back to school!

Happy Library Week and Right to read day, which should be every day. Read what you want and let others do the same 📚💙 #righttoread

I’m ready for spring! Deep purple tulips to bring joy during these depressing times 🌷

Massachusetts here. We love Canada 🇨🇦

Don’t insult clowns.

It would make a wonderful picture book!

Tea for me. The Republic of Tea ginger peach or green tea in the morning and a nice mint or chamomile at night. The occasional hot chocolate is good too!
