It’s wild and humbling to realize I’m almost there.
Thankfull. Tired. Lit up.

ā€˜That BIG Book Sale’ returns to benefit Charleston libraries, literacy Now through the end of this weekend, Charleston-area readers will have the opportunity to find their next new novel while supporting a good cause.

This sounds incredible for all my fellow literary Carolinians: Over 250 volunteers will join together to sell 50,000 books, across 40 genres, to fund programs at the Charleston County Public Library system’s 18 branches and support literacy in the Lowcountry

Why Boys Are Behind in School From the Start

Just read this, found it interesting that boys are more prone to hardship (wonder if that has a lot to do with how we raise boys), & why we’re still pushing academic studies instead of play-based early education if it’s been proven to be more effective www.nytimes.com/2025/05/31/u...

Is it? Didn’t they get rid of fact checkers, roll back content moderation and put onus on its users? It’s no surprise scams are surging.

It’s ā€œcrabs-in-bucketā€ behavior. They’re going down fast and says more about them than anyone they try to smear on their way out. Reeks of desperation!

Almost half a century ago, I was lucky enough to go to a public school in Harlem with a classroom full of Apple PCs where I played video games before that was a thing. My fave was this math one, which was basically a haunted house escape room. I wish my son could play it. #1980s #retrovideogames

Reading books is resistance.

Buying books is resistance.
