Stop worrying about what YA books to let your kids read and let them sort it out with V C Andrews and cocaine era Stephen King as God intended
H/t to @scalzi.com and The Bloggess for the notice. Here's the original list of banned & restricted books in New Braunfels. Includes many classics these kids will be expected to know for AP exams and college. Includes a book by Dubya, even. Wild. drive.google.com/file/d/16_e6...
A Texas school district has banned HOW LONG TIL BLACK FUTURE MONTH, along with over 1500 other books. Mine was kicked bc it's labeled for adults, which is true. But so are every one of my books, which are available in most schools.
That's the only one with "Black" in the title, tho.
Happy book birthday! Congrats!

Ugh. I can't find any biblio on him, and he's not advertising any publications. So he's just some unpublished rando pulling the standard grifterbro schtick (being loudly and confidently wrong)? I hope nobody falls for this.
Wait, what? Who's saying this and what hallucinogen are they on?
I'm excited!
Now it's official.
THE TERROR: DEVIL IN SILVER is coming to you.
I can't begin to express how proud I am of the show we made.
It's a story of systematic evil, unjust imprisonment, abuse & the need for ALL to fight together to beat the devils who prey on us.
Get ready!
There are many ways that NYC residents can fight to fund our public libraries:
1. Send a letter to your city council member (30 seconds): actionnetwork.org/letters/city...
So sorry to hear this. Take care, you and your family.
Civil rights are a kitchen-table issue.
We shouldn't be basing higher ed decisions solely on numbers like these because higher ed isn't a business, but we *definitely* shouldn't let people use 'run higher ed like a business' as a pitch and then bury the numbers that show they're killing profitable programs.
MAKE AN EMERGENCY DONATION to Trans Continental Pipeline right now.
They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate there and they are overwhelmed with requests. CO borders KS, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.
GO DONATE.

Thousands of institutions abandoned programs, ended or rewrote scholarships, closed down clubs and publications, all in pre-emptive compliance.
And you know why?
Mostly because they wanted to do it if they thought they could blame someone else for it.
it's weird to see people complain about Bad Bunny's performance being in Spanish when there have been entire operas in Italian, German and French performed in the US and the top song of the last two years, K-Pop Demon Hunters' "Golden" has lyrics in Korean
Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”
Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.
A new consultant contract at a Texas Educational Service Center would muzzle authors & harm students, barring them from inclusive experiences.
Y'all, this is REALLY BAD.
This is the next step in banning any voices outside those deemed right by white supremacy.

It's #BlackHistoryMonth and I want to use that follower count for some good today. If you are a Black creative, QRP with your links.
Note: this one is for Black folks to share their work. Not self appointed allies and performative list making of Black folks to follow & support UwU!
Good GOD.
Minnesota activist releases video of arrest after manipulated White House version

American Indian Movement (AIM) patrols have returned amid rising tensions in Minnesota with ICE. Nearly 100 volunteers are helping watch over elders and community members as federal agents outnumber local police and confrontations continue to draw protests and legal action.
This weird thing where people are like “ICE is not the Gestapo, they’re slave patrols” and then others are like “ICE is not slave patrols, they’re CPS“ and it’s like ok the guy in charge of ICE is dressing himself like a Nazi so yeah Gestapo but also fascists can learn from more than one thing!!!!!!
A screenshot of the Book Riot site titled THE BEST FANTASY BOOKS OF THE CENTURY SO FAR, showing the cover images of THE FIFTH SEASON and THE HUNDRED THOUSAND KINGDOMS beside their reviews. Text versions of the reviews are available at the Book Riot site linked.
Saw over the weekend that THE FIFTH SEASON and THE HUNDRED THOUSAND KINGDOMS were both listed among Book Riot's "Best Fantasy Books of the Century (so far)!" Very cool! bookriot.com/best-fantasy...
