I love this so much and I am absolutely tearing up about it. The gentleness and plainness of this, the way he just lets her be her (and she seems so damn lovely, who wouldn’t?), the generosity.

It isn’t going to solve the world’s problems, but this kind of humanity is a hell of a start.

Hey, as a librarian I need to tell you:

Our funding depends on usage.

So go ahead and check out that book even if you don't think you'll finish it. No one will know. Check out that DVD even though you might not like it. Get ambitious in your quest for knowledge.

Buried in the regime's political takeover letter of the Smithsonian is the worst bit. Unlike exhibits, which are non-destructive towards primary materials, temporary in nature, and reversible, the foundational collections are irreplacable. They want to be able to throw stuff out.

Puzzling as to how the US Veep can feel safe bringing his family to a riot torn hellhole country without any freedom of speech.

Obviously he has security, but could it be just possibly that those claims are on closer inspection almost complete nonsense.

uh, so if I have this right, Tesla sent a Cybertruck owner a cease and desist for rapping about the truck, and then deactivated said truck on the side of the road until he signed it??

I haven't bought anything from Amazon in awhile but like - how do I get this price? When you click thru it's like $284.

I watched the JAWS at 50 documentary last night and it was really good. I saw the movie twice (I know 😬) and I really didn't understand the appeal of it, other than being really revolutionary for its time, but now I want to watch it again πŸ˜„πŸ¦ˆ

Trump and the Republicans may have taken a sledgehammer to America's priceless medical research, but it's comforting to know the rest of the world is still doing promising work on cures. Go Sweden!

Tonight, please spare a thought to all our scientists and public health workers who have dedicated their careers to saving millions of lives.

Despite their amazing work they are constantly threatened due to politicization and the unfettered spread of misinformation.

It should not be like this πŸ’”

#ICE Agents Tear Down Cameras And Break Doors And Windows At Restaurant in Burbank

Only criminals would need to do this. They know they're breaking the law, and they're destroying anything that can give evidence.

#Nuremburg style trials can't come fast enough.

Obviously it's a prequel but I haven't read the last book yet so I'm wondering how much (if anything) of what we learn in Blood of my Blood is revealed in Go Tell the Bees That I am Gone. I need to get a wiggle on and read the book before next season starts.
