Queer kids need to have access to books that value their existence.
Queer kids need to have access to books that celebrate their lives.
Queer kids need to know that these books exist.

Banning books is not about books.
Banning books is about the erasure of identities.

A "justice" system that supports state-sanctioned murder is anything but just.

We must abolish the cruel, flawed, and racist death penalty once and for all.

@misskubelik Hi Angie! Would you be willing to share the logistics of your lunchtime club? I have lots of tweens/middle schoolers at my library that love D&D.

Don't wait – check your state's voter registration deadline today and make sure you're registered and ready to vote. And then share this with your friends and family so everyone's ready to vote early or by Election Day. https://t.co/jKW0RyeBXC

@sailorrooscout Hi Chise! Last year I remember hearing that the vaccine hit peak effectiveness 2 weeks after getting it. Is this still true?

[Kim @libraryladykim]

@linav8 This might be too out there but when I gave birth to my one and only baby during COVID, we did get a lot of baby things, but my one friend actually got me a nice pair of soft sweatpants, a cute scrunchy, and a cute mom shirt. It felt nice that someone thought of me too.

Are you “burned out” or are you having a reasonable reaction to a never-ending amount of terrible news that you can hardly do anything about?

[Kim @libraryladykim]

@sailorrooscout Thank you as always!

[Kim @libraryladykim]

@sailorrooscout Ah sorry I didn't read those thanks!

@sailorrooscout I'm not immunocompromised or elderly, but haven't had a booster since last September. Do you think it's better to get it as soon as it's available or wait until mid-fall when COVID/flu usually peaks?

[Jennifer Gunter @DrJenGunter]

There are so many click-bait, fear-filled headlines about lead and other metals in tampons.
Remember, scaring women about vaginal health is highly profitable.
I evaluated the study in question, and there is no cause for alarm. 1/

@3kingvisions Little Mouse is ALWAYS a hit no matter the group of kids. One outreach kiddo always asks if we brought "Mouse House" with us that day. <3

@TheBeardedBook I'm so jealous you get to interview her. Jinkx is one of my all-time favorite drag performers!

@Komaniecki_R I don't mind it b/c I'm a librarian by trade so I've got a knack for information finding!

[Kim @libraryladykim]

@AlliAlliG Admittedly we put it off until 3.5 b/c diapers were so easy and I was absolutely dreading potty training. But he took to it fairly easily and by day 3 of the long weekend pretty much had it down.
