"Terrorism" if it's a CEO, but "unfixable" if it's school children.

We know that many of you, like us, are trying to wrap your heads around what the next few years will hold. These are a few titles that have helped us think through what we are up against and the resistance we need. Please read them, share them, use them. https://t.co/sC5Rz6UHx0

“We who are not there, witnessing from afar, in what ways are we mutilating ourselves when we dissociate to cope? To remain human at this juncture is to remain in agony. Let us remain there: it is the more honest place from which to speak.”

Ursula K Le Guin was so ahead of her time. She clocked Rowling's writing as uninspired, derivative and mean. Le Guin tried to tell us and people hated her for it. Now we're all saying it.

Did you hear today is James Baldwin's 100th birthday? Do you feel like you should have read him by now?

We have a chart for that!

AND we made a James Baldwin page browsable by genre (since he was a genre-defying genius): https://t.co/4CfEr8YsIX

@AKPressDistro It keeps saying the account is suspended (and it was for a bit—seemingly for retweeting appeals to human decency and awareness of fuckery) but yeah. Maybe now just a glitch? Thanks @ashakijackson for letting me know someone sees this account 😘

Thread Makes Blanket is a small publishing press founded in 2011.

We aim to publish rad, necessary writing that might not otherwise find a home.

For example, our most recent publication is Push the Water, a queer memoir pushing for the right to do no harm.

[Thread Makes Blanket 🧵 @threadblanket]

Push the Water is available in paperback and as an ebook through our website or our distributor @AKPressDistro

Also! check out our earlier publications from Joel Dias-Porter Kirwyn Sutherland!

Every publication is a careful collaboration between publisher and author.

James Baldwin: "The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality."

Netanyahu’s standing ovation in Congress.

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

Joining me in the chamber today is Hani Almadhoun, who has lost over 150 members of his extended family in Netanyahu’s genocide. After witnessing his sister forced to eat animal feed, he and his family were determined to start a soup kitchen to feed their starving neighbors.
