No idea of how this ended up on my tbr but it is the best?!? horror novel I've ever read, and I can't believe it's not as famous as The Exorcist and Rosemary's Baby.

Why We Must Fight to Stop HR 7661 Before It Destroys the Lives of American Children Lately I’ve been calling my House rep and screaming about one zillion things, and maybe you have too. But today I want to talk about one thing in particular you should add to your list: H.R. 7661 i…

β€œBlocking access to books does not change our history nor…who we are. It simply prevents readers from understanding the complexity and beauty of the world we live in.”

One time I called the water company on behalf of my partner and they asked if I was his wife, I was just like "sure" because it was the path of least resistance

Every other part of this set aside for just a moment, if the demand for liver suddenly skyrocketed, the price of liver would also skyrocket. The "cheap cuts" are cheap because people do not want them. If people wanted them, they'd stop being cheap. This is grade school economics. You're an adult.

Don't be fooled by this bill's name-- this is a book banning bill that will exclude LGBTQ books from all public schools NATIONWIDE.

Call your congresspeople and tell them to VOTE NO on this nakedly bigoted book banning bullshit.
