The vast majority of people who are killed by heat or killed by cold are actually killed by poverty. It’s not a random act of weather, it’s the systemic violence of poverty

Libby is trending and can everyone just take a moment to say godspeed to all the public librarians who are going to be dealing with disgruntled patrons all week who a) hate Libby, b) refuse to understand why Overdrive doesn't work anymore, and c) just hate change, period.

Happy National Library Week!!! 🤩🤩🤩 I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for libraries and librarians. You gave me hope when I was a kid. You gave me kindness when I was alone. You give me strength every day. I love you, I’m with you, and I celebrate you!!! ❤️📚🙌

Peter: rabbi you died!
Jesus: darkness took me and I strayed out of thought and time and I wandered far on roads that I will not tell
John: Jesus!
Jesus: that's what they used to call me. Jesus of Nazareth. *I* am Jesus Christ and I come back to you now at the turn of the tide

Hey! Hey! Either stop fighting in the library or, if you must, move it to 796.8!
To say I love this isn't enough. This is beyond awesome. #goodnews
In Texas, this high school softball coach started a program that pairs her team with students who have disabilities.
They trained together for months.
This is what happened when she brought the students onto the field to throw the opening pitch.
