begging people to stop framing Exec Orders as laws by saying things like “banned Gender Affirming Care for Minors” (or people under 18) or whatever. that’s not what happened.
A ban on federal funding was announced, and cowards at these institutions complied in advance and we need to always say so.

Ableism is an especially weird form of prejudice to me because literally anyone could become disabled at any time.

I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM.
I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.

The sheer absurdity of thinking that fascists somehow give a shit whether it’s against the law.
Whether they’re able to do it has nothing to do with the law, and everything to do with resistance.

Yes, libraries are invaluable for their collections and public services they offer, but also social contact without the expectation to interact with anyone or spend any money is so important to so many people

Sorry but all the fables and fairy tales I read as a kid led me to believe people would be learning WAY more lessons than they actually do

Actually, having given it due consideration, it turns out that I do quite like echo chambers after all.

You might not know this but your local library probably has an app where you can borrow ebooks and audiobooks, for free! Some have apps that let you borrow digital comics too.
My library subscribes to Borrowbox and it's great, I constantly have 2-3 audiobooks on loan.
Support your local library!
