@jwocker.bsky.social I got Edelweiss access for “Chasing the Headless Horseman” and what effing timing to have this book. My family and I will be in Sleepy Hollow this fall to see if we potentially have family buried at the Old Dutch Church (also possible distant relations to the Van Tassels 👀👀).

sign.moveon.org/petitions/pr... The library system I work for is making budget cuts, and it’s been very anxiety inducing wondering who and how it will impact myself and colleagues. If you’d like to take a moment to ask our board to reconsider how these cuts should be done, you’d have my gratitude!

Protect the Library, Librarians and Library Staff

The board and library administration claim these cuts will impact all areas of the library system equitably, but that doesn't appear to be the case. The workers most likely to bear the burden are unio...

Literally am now watching an Amazon van parked IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAMN ROAD with his hazard lights on to make a delivery. So, one way of cars can go by, but your loss if you’re coming from the other direction, cause this asshat was too lazy to find a spot IN THE PLETHORA OF OPEN STREET PARKING!

@metuiteme.bsky.social, as I read 250+ books, because the pandemic wrecked me, I finally concluded The Ones Who Come Back Hungry. You’ve hit little Shannon’s heart in the right place. 👏❤️🎉✨ Now, I’ll sleep tonight with no closure, going, “How did Audrey get it?!?” 😭😭😭 Those questions have no answers

While I was in the bookstore the other day, a thought came upon me, because I was looking at a book: Everyone in the building was looking for a good hallucination. Can’t remember who came up with that original concept, but everyone is collectively in the store to find their next hallucination.

I ordered two copies. As an Only Child, this will be the hardest chapter of my life. My parents are well aware I want to be prepared. Folks should never feel afraid to talk to their family about end of life plans. I feel it should be normalized way more.

Here are three steps you can take to start organizing your hospital to defend patients and staff against ICE. This is based on the experience of workers and rights groups in Minneapolis. Share it with the healthcare workers in your life and read more at the piece linked down thread.

A huge goal of mine this year is to take care of my village. The one that was there for me this last month. The folks who look out for me, and I would like to look out for them more. I’ve had a suckish time hanging out with friends this last year, and I would really like to fix that moving forward

@sgj.bsky.social A story to enter this holiday week in. A guest approaches me at the bookstore. Looking for the Native American section—then it turned into a calendar…then I needed to ask them more questions. Guest: “My dad is Blackfeet and we’re just trying to find him something.”

My grandma died last Wednesday. My aunts and uncles chose today to bury her when I begged to have more time to get there. Nothing could connect me to ND yesterday, so I went home after 4 hours at the airport. They’re burying her now. I’m at home making a chicken wrap. My village failed me.

I just popped on Twitter an hour ago and I’m in disbelief how my timeline is actually showing, writers, agents, INDUSTRY PEOPLE after a damn year of poking on to irrelevant shit and soft porn. Like, I’m actually willing to go back in a bit. I have no clue what happened, but I hope it stays that way
