My heart is in these NYT headlines:
“America is No Longer a Stable Country“
“The Beautiful Danger of of Normal Life During an Autocratic Rise“
“National Institutes of Health Workers Denounce 'Harmful' Policies“
“[#CheetoSatan] Calling Troops into Los Angeles is the Real Emergency“

Martial law is next. Democracy dies in darkness. #ranttime ✊🏻💙✊🏻

thebacklistbook What's even worse is that Mango Mussolini is clearly using the LA national guard to distract from the possibility that he is in the Epstein file. 2w

Holocaust: An Unfinished History | Dan Stone

I read this passage today & felt how applicable it is to today. Especially with what is happening to so many immigrant families in the US right now. This was a letter written by a French priest in 1942 that was read to most of the churches in Toulouse. Currently, I still don‘t understand how people call themselves a Christian & have no qualms about what is happening to so many innocent people. #ranttime

Memorial Day | Christin Ditchfield

While we celebrated yesterday to honor all who have valiantly served our country, the current president posts this absolute crap. Besides the SHOUTING CAPS and heinous words about pretty much everybody, he doesn't even thank ONE military person who died while in service. I just can't wrap my head around understanding ANYONE who voted for this sub-human. My face would burn with shame. Mr. President, I wear the badge of SCUM with pride.

dabbe @kspenmoll 🎯🩵🎯 You have to read what @Aims42 shared below. It will restore your sanity as it did mine. 😍 3w

Aims42 @dabbe You are so welcome 🥰💖 Also, who knew I‘d be following a “Did he die today” account on Threads 😆 No other posts besides; “No”, “Sadly not” and “Alas, today is not the day. But there‘s always tomorrow” 🤣 That was definitely not on my 2025 Bingo card but here we are 🤦‍♀️ 3w

dabbe @Aims42 Matt and I pretty much wonder that every single day when we wake up. We also don't go through life wishing for someone's demise, but if it saves our democracy, we do hope. That just shows how fucked up this country is right now. 😞 3w

Aims42 @dabbe Right?!? 😳🫠 What‘s truly fascinating is that there is zero reference to who the “he” is, but you know instantly who it is 😆 You are so right, it shows exactly how insane our country has become in just 127 days (from Jan. 20th to today) 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 3w

TheBookHippie What‘s so bad is - He‘s just saying the quiet part out loud …. His followers agree with every word. 😵‍💫 They‘ve been mostly underground since before Timothy Mc Veigh- and even before that they were enslavers. This is “the confederates” dream. If he dies -it‘s Vance. Who is more deliberately evil. We have a reckoning. I hope we endure. Thankfully no one likes Vance. 😝😫 it‘s my only hope: that it all crumbles. 3w

Liz_M If the Dems to regain the house in 2026, H. Jeffries is third in line. Just saying. 3w

Suet624 He‘s despicable. 3w

ChaoticMissAdventures The people I really don't get are veterans, my uncle has built his whole personality around his (short) navy service, and he has spent the last 9 years fawning all over this disgusting man. I just do not get it. 3w

Aims42 @TheBookHippie The one slice of hope I hold onto is if VampyVance does succeed the old poopy diaper Cheeto, that VampyVance is not nearly as charismatic and appealing to the cult that Trump has indoctrinated. You‘re right, nobody likes him 😝 3w

dabbe @Liz_M Short of Satan himself, there is no one more evil than Drumpf. #imho 3w

Is #vampyvance the lesser of two evils? 🤔 Hard question. 3w

#RantTime

With the proposed elimination of library, museum, humanities programs, and PBS funding, among other entities, it is imperative that voices are raised against these measures. My lifeblood is all about humanities—I‘m a librarian, after all—and it is terrifying that my skills are considered to be unimportant to the government. I‘d rant more, but I‘ll save that for another day.

Please contact your representatives. See link below. ⬇️

#RantTime

It was not really reported in the news today, but DOGE made its way to the IMLS office this morning. Changes in leadership this morning has also greatly concerned libraries and museums, given the rhetoric used by the newly appointed director.

As a former public librarian, and one with a library degree, I am absolutely devastated. Libraries are for everyone. Librarians are not to censor, pass judgment, or hide truths. We have a code ⬇️

Librarybelle ⬆️ that we uphold, a bill of rights for libraries. I am concerned for my friends and former colleagues who still work in public libraries and what they may have to do, and more specifically, what dangers they have to face. Libraries are not the enemy. And, librarians do not promote pornography to children. I‘m including links to some cites for more info and to contact your local representatives. Some of these links have been shared before, ⬇️ 3mo

Librarybelle ⬆️ while others are updated information on this rapidly evolving story. Sorry—I know this does not impact non-US Littens, but please think of us. Here are the links: 3mo

Aims42 Thank you for sharing this! I‘m off Facebook now so I don‘t get these updates, I appreciate you sharing all these links too!! 3mo

Librarybelle @Aims42 You‘re welcome! 3mo

shortsarahrose Thank you for posting this. I‘ve been so angry about this. I work in an academic library/archive, and we received a small IMLS grant for implementing digital preservation practices in our archive. I‘ve contacted my senators and congresswoman (though they are all Republicans who probably won‘t care 🙃) 3mo

Librarybelle Of course, @shortsarahrose ! I don‘t think many understand how much the grants funded through IMLS help with services in all libraries. Take that away, or put restrictions on it, and that hinders so much in a 21st-century library. 3mo

Bette Thank you for the info and links. I just wrote to my senator but will be writing again and also sharing these with friends. (I‘m a retired, but not retiring, librarian) 3mo

Librarybelle You‘re welcome, @Bette ! 3mo

Leftcoastzen So sick of these idiots! Our libraries & museums are national treasures! 😡 3mo

Librarybelle @Leftcoastzen They are treasures! 3mo

dabbe #ranttime Atticus Finch stated that the courts “are our great equalizers.“ So are our libraries! Reading is knowledge. They want to take that away from us so that they can continue perpetuating their evil scams. How, how, how, could anyone have voted for this asshole? It's a question I ask myself hundreds of times a day.

I've been writing and will continue to do so. Thanks for this. 👊🏻❣️👊🏻 3mo

Librarybelle Of course, @dabbe ! 3mo

Hooked_on_books Thanks for posting this. Libraries are so important! 3mo
