This post will not be popular but it needs to be said. Everyone who refused to vote or voted for the green party is just as responsible for Trump's election as MAGAts are. The war overseas was not a good enough excuse. Take responsibility and actually do something about it.

What Will You Do? What’s your “I am Spartacus” move to protect the more vulnerable, the targeted, the invisibled, the next-on-the-list?

As the U.S. revokes hundreds of visas to suppress activism, Kaveh Akbar writes beautifully and the pervasive fear--and the need to protect the rights of the most vulnerable. www.thenation.com/article/acti...

Don’t let them forget it. No peace for them.

Two-panel meme featuring characters from The Simpsons. In the first panel, Bart Simpson, looking distressed, says, 'I JUST WATCHED THE DUMBEST TRUMP PRESS BRIEFING!' In the second panel, Homer Simpson, pointing at Bart, responds, 'YOU JUST WATCHED THE DUMBEST TRUMP PRESS BRIEFING SO FAR.' The meme humorously suggests that each Trump press briefing is progressively worse.

Time to dig this classic out. Sigh.

Remember:

It can be sad. It can be tragic. It can be disgusting and depressing and discouraging.

But it doesn’t have to mean this is who we are now. It’s what our country is doing right now and that’s not the same as who we are.

Who we are isn’t up to him.

Yeah that’s not concerning at all. Hope the MAGAts get everything they voted for!

I loved the premise and the unique magic system! My only note was that I wish we got to know the two main characters more outside of their feelings for each other.

Never Whistle at Night an Anthology
✨✨✨✨/✨✨✨✨✨
I LOVE a good horror novel! Especially one that’s written from folklore that dates back centuries. Some stories left me questioning, some left me disturbed, and some left just plain terrified!

Becoming Abolitionists by Derecka Purnell
✨✨✨✨/✨✨✨✨✨
This book is a great introduction to prison reform written in an easily digestible format. Anyone who’s began their questioning of the United States’s criminal justice system definitely needs to pick this book up.

The Hurricane Wars by Thea Guanzon
✨✨✨/✨✨✨✨✨
For me, what this book had was a reeling romance and a unique magic system. What it didn’t have was a ton of character development. I would have loved to know these characters outside of their opinions of their love interest.

Interior Chinatown by Charles Yu

✨✨✨✨✨/✨✨✨✨✨

This was a very quick read for me. It’s written as both vivid fiction and a film script that grabs you and takes you on a journey to Chinatown through the eyes actors living through the thinly veiled racism of Hollywood.

Hello all!! I’m currently reading Heir by Sabas Tahir 📚

Hi there, #booksky!

A couple of things about me 💕

1. I believe reading is reading. No matter what format

2. Love is love 🏳️‍🌈. There is no toleration for hate on my feed.

3. My favorite genre is Fantasy, but I will honestly read anything 🙃

4. I’m excited to connect with more bookish friends!

Post by Charlotte Clymer: Every transphobic argument can basically be boiled down to: "I actually don't know the science at all or have a good argument here, but trans people challenge my long held view of the world and it's very uncomfortable and everyone should be expected to move around my discomfort."

This…this is it. In a nutshell, yes.
