Welcome to Litsy!

Apparently there are numbers of readers who do not understand the messaging in Fantasy. I am guessing if they did we would see more book bans…. cause a woman who thinks is dangerous.

First published in 2017 but just as relevant now, this concise & thought provoking book clocks in less than 2 hours on audio. But the lessons contained within are expansive & will stay with the reader. Highly recommended.

Welp fam, this is gonna be a long haul (not the book; it‘s almost a pamphlet.) What do you do when you‘re scared? Read a book. Drink your water. Get some sleep.

My book haul for today.

My November pick for #12Booksof2024 succinctly and elegantly describes the situation we're in, and offers real strategies for facing it with integrity. For me it has provoked much thought, many conversations, and practical preparations. I don't want this to be the best book I read in 2024, but right now it feels like it may be

(2017) Here's a compact handbook to living with integrity in a collapsing/collapsed democracy. I have a dreadful feeling Snyder's advice will have multiple practical applications very soon. Thank goodness it exists.

Small acts of resistance: community, love, joy. Read the books they want to ban, speak to the people they want to silence, view what they want to stay hidden. Always question. Know your worth. Support those in need where you can.

I still struggle with words for what is happening. To those struggling with me: I see you.

My heart feels a lot right now. I imagine his is broken. I know B. did the right thing, but I am so afraid. I don't think my heart can hold everything that will come if this wicked man gets back in the office again. I will do everything I can to get peoplx to vote. I will vote. I will continue to try and help others like I always have. I will try to hold on to some hope…we are at a critical point right now. This is not the time to sit it⬇️
