pickThis is a great memoir. I feel such sadness for those of you out there who feel uncomfortable with presenting yourself as is. Some of the panels talked about not staying up for yourself because you didn't want to seem rude. Ugh! That speaks to me. Please all know #YouAreSafeWithMe and please #StandUp

So, I'm seriously rethinking the two Simmons books on my TBR, the last two books in the Hyperion series, after reading his tweet completely bashing a 16 yr old girl. The thought of a 72 year old "man" cyber bullying a child just boils my blood. #Magathugs #Magabullies #jerk
Greta is a role model.

pickIf you love #comedy history you will love this book. With the recent passing of #MitziShore & the success of the Showtime series based on this book (not a retelling) it seems right to mention it in my feed. I will likely post more comedy inspiration later but this is a keeper. A great read with a lot of personal meaning for me & those who love the #comedystore and #LA #standup comedy. RIP Mitzi. :(
More books from the thrift store yesterday! Most of these were only $0.50 ! ❤️️📚❤️️

The Juice Box Bully by Bob Sornson is a Realistic Fiction book that follows a kid named Pete who bullies his peers before they get a chance to bully him. He eventually realizes that his peers want to be his friend and apologizes for his actions. He agrees to be friends as do they. This is a good book to discuss bullying! Here is a bunch of lesson plans for different ages/subjects. http://mariadismondy.com/uploads/docs/Juice-Box-Readers-Guide.pdf
pickAmazing read so far. For all the people in my life who refuse to see. #requiredreading #standup #engage

pickJust finished Feldman's 1st book, after attending her launch for the 3rd in the series, at Another Read Through books in #pdx. Wonderful mix of history, magic, justice, faith, growing up. A lot like Dulci's Legacy, in fact... Plus, #portland!
Thought about it more as I strolled by NW synagogue last night, with its eerie glow & beautiful architecture by Couch Park...
