Please come to the Midwest! St Louis has some incredible independent bookstores. But I'd drive to Chicago for you.

The most baffling thing about the #kisscam incident is that #coldplay is still playing stadium shows.

The covers of the first ten Gryphon Insurrection novels by K. Vale Nagle, starting with Eyrie and ending with Saberbeak, portraying a wide range of interesting gryphons in interesting places from hawks to kakapo to snowy owls to diving petrels to starlings to hooded pitohui to sand cat hoopoe birds to white-tailed kites in golden armor to saber-toothed tiger gryphons. The first ten covers are in an illustrated style, but the last book, Blue Eyes, is a short story collection in a very stylized art that has a snow leopard in the snowy mountains.

If Biden was asked a question about Harvard and went on a long rant about Harlem, it would be front page news and Republicans would be drawing up articles of impeachment.

Trump is suffering severe mental decline and it’s about time it gets the attention it deserves.

I Randomly Decided To Pay Off A School’s Lunch Debt. Then Something Incredible Happened. β€œI immediately wondered if this was real.”

This article is so powerful and illuminating. If you've ever been faced with the scope of advocacy, with the seeming contradictions of the hard work of improving our world, it's worth a read.

"The Nazis forced the LGBT+ community to identity themselves as β€˜degenerates’ by wearing pink triangles. Labour’s policy means that for trans people to move through the public sphere they will need, similarly, to identify themselves as trans in an increasingly violent and transphobic world."

Happy International Women’s Day β€” we're sending love & solidarity to all trans women, Black women, Indigenous women, fat women, butch women, and women whose femininity, womanhood, and expression has historically been marginalized and oppressed by white supremacy and colonialism.

A good thing to do if you are flailing a bit right now (as who is not??) is to get in touch with your own values, the things that you find life affirming and necessary in the world. Read some inspiring works about things you value - labor solidarity, scientific achievement, social justice.

Apparently one thing about being middle aged is that when you try to think of the name of ANY Indian restaurant you first think of the one you used to go to all the time but that's 2000 miles away and was torn down 15 years ago.
