Black shorthair Fiedra lies curled up atop blankets on the sofa, her form tight and compact. The tip of her tail curls up in front of her, creating a loop around her face as she tiredly looks at me.

Grey and white Callisto lies curled up on an old pizza box that sits on the gas stovetop, absorbing the warmth of the pilot light below. She rests her head on her paws, one of which is positioned so as to expose the velvet paw pads to view.
Good idea, Callisto. 😽❤️📦 #CatBoxSunday #Cats #CatsOfBluesky

The American Library Association strongly denounces new federal book banning legislation proposed in Congress. Call your Reps. Tell them to oppose H.R. 7661. Capitol switchboard: 202-224-3121 American Library Association, Show Up For Our Libraries
"Parents, not politicians, should guide their children’s reading. In our school, campus, and public libraries, materials are selected by trained literacy professionals who understand child development and community needs. Their work is grounded in one clear purpose: helping young people become lifelong readers. H.R. 7661 isn’t fundamentally about protecting kids. It’s about giving politicians broad authority to restrict whose stories are allowed on the shelves. That should concern anyone who believes in the freedom to read and the right of families to make decisions for themselves.” - ALA President Sam Helmick
"Rather than targeting librarians and teachers, Congress should invest in them. The Right to Read Act offers a better path, supporting well-staffed and well-resourced school libraries, strengthening evidence-based literacy instruction, and protecting the dedicated professionals who help young people discover books that open doors and expand horizons. When we trust families, support educators, and protect the freedom to read, our young people thrive.” - ALA President Sam Helmick.
NEW: ALA strongly denounces new federal book banning legislation introduced in Congress, HR 7661.
As ALA President Sam Helmick said, "Parents, not politicians, should guide their children's reading." Call your Rep and tell them to oppose this new bill.

It's already ILLEGAL for non-citizens to vote. This voter suppression bill—the "Save America Act"—solves a non-existent problem while disenfranchising millions of actual citizens. It's a lie from start to finish.

You only have a short time to comment. They are trying to destroy our forests to enrich a few logging company executives and the politicians they’ve paid off.

66. It was just an accident (2025). I wasn't specifically upset about 'F1' being nominated for Best Picture--until now. THAT mediocre nothing gets honored while this, brilliant & one of the very best films of recent years, gets passed over?!?!
Superb from start to finish. A sterling must-see. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

01.03.2026 12:40 — 👍 35 🔁 5 💬 1 📌 065. Blue moon (2025). Hawke quite clearly approaches perfection in his performance in what is otherwise a film that's... broadly enjoyable. Rich, vibrant dialogue & scene writing 100% define the experience, the cinematic equivalent of a stage play. It's enough, but it doesn't inspire verbose praise.

Excellent throughout, yet the second half is where this really shines, with some scenes of especial brilliance. Set a day aside & rent it, borrow it, whatever; this is a treasure ❤️
