"Specifically, for a lot of us, it doesn't always feel like you're banning the book itself. Sometimes it feels like you're banning the people that those books are about, that you're saying that those lives are lives that should only exist in the shadows."-Jason Reynolds #bookbans

.@jjhorgan promised to protect B.C.'s last stands of #OldGrowth Forest, yet logging has continued at an alarming rate. In the fight against #ClimateChange, old-growth forests are worth more standing. ADD YOUR VOICE: https://t.co/hgGwUq5iDt #BCpoli @GreenpeaceCA

@TiffanyE My husband has to wear a mask all day in a clinical setting and folds a Kleenex so that it's about an inch wide and places it under the bridge of the mask and then glasses over top. Works great!

@veronikellymars This is literacy shaming - making kids feel bad about what they're reading, or preventing kids from making their own reading choices. A similar post a while back drove me to make the first of 3 PSAs to help #EndLiteracyShaming. Pls use & share! https://t.co/aUjsEpcfh6

@Spiritbearcoton @DrBarryChem Bc boats u can’t trailer urself need a hauler.Sailboats are rly difficult bc of deep keels, masts are often taller than power lines. Demasting requires a crew &a particular location. Even w/ 48 hours notice it would be v difficult. Then where 2store it safely? Fr a BC boater ⛵️

Acquaintance, patronizingly: “Children’s books? How sweet. What are yours about?” Me, deadpan: “Trafficking, microcredit, racism, refugees, war, genocide, poverty, adoption, gender bias, climate change, shadism, poaching, immigration, and the US-Mexico border.”

#tlchat Libraries must thoughtfully manage their collections. Here’s a great 99% Invisible podcast about books, card catalogs, earthquakes, & how self-styled “guerilla” librarians took matters into their own hands to preserve a collection from destruction https://t.co/r4zPVVLfLF
