If - we burn and claw ones and zeroes 
from their mortal metal transience  
in someone else’s data graveyard 
like burning papyrus wafting to sea
in Alexandria’s harbor 
Alexandria Greece? 
Alexandria Virginia? 
Else - we forget so easily 
how much like fire we are 
write over it write over me
commit, to forgetting
push, the pillars down
grecian columns up on a hill 
too much in their image
we forget

A photo of Arlie Wiesel with a black box & white text with the quote:

“Always take sides.  Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim.  Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.”

In honor of the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, I remember & strive to live accordingly:

A reminder - don't use Amazon, but go to bookshops, which play a far more vital role in promoting literacy just by simply making books more visible, and allow you to find things by chance rather than by what the algorithm decides.

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Also im probably going to edit this because its incredibly dramatic but today’s poison mention is:
“There would be no flowers. Just a burnt garden, dried brush underfoot on tomorrow’s walk, and the cold dead earth waiting to grow a thousand poison lilies for her funeral”

Its definitely a lot to keep track of but the result is worth it. I liked the audiobook because it did different voices and helped me get over that initial hump

Black and white photo of Martin Luther King, Jr. with quote "We must learn that passively to accept an unjust system is to cooperate with that system, and thereby to become a participant in its evil." the quote is attributed to Martin Luther King, Jr. In the photo, Dr. King is wearing a suit and tie, standing at a podium speaking.

Martin Luther King, Jr. fought to end our nation's deliberate neglect and abuse of Black Americans. He was relentlessly targeted by our government for his views and pursuit of equality.

At this pivotal moment, we honor his legacy by fighting injustice in all its forms, with everything we've got.

Like fam at least be honest with yourself. You don’t want a community you want an audience. Which like has its place

Its highkey so funny to me the number of posts ive seen of people who are like “how do I find my community on here” and then you look at their profile and its thousands of followers and they follow like maybe 20 ppl.

Most epub files you can put on a kindle. Library apps like libby usually let you directly send them to your kindle from the app too. Sometimes you can buy the ebook directly from an author or publishers website too

Def don’t aimlessly try. Even if it’s just like making a bookmark, having something that you can say ‘this took the shape i wanted it to’ really makes a difference.
