Librarians shouldn't need to raise money for legal expenses after they speak out against censorship. #tlchat gofund.me/0a5e7d32

In Conroe, TX. You can plan to enlist in the military in the high school cafeteria, but you need your mom's permission to read Catch 22 or Brave New World. yourconroenews.com/neighborhood/m…

I am routinely getting GoFundMe requests to help pay legal expenses for librarians. Unfortunately, librarians are targets of the ongoing culture war and the attack on inclusivity and the First Amendment. #tlchat gofund.me/e7e8118c

The librarians are fighting back. A middle school librarian in Louisiana filed a defamation lawsuit Wednesday arguing that two men falsely labeled her a pedophile who wants to teach 11-year-olds about anal sex. From Tyler Kingkade: nbcnews.com/news/us-news/r…

WATCH: “Tennessee teachers, you know why I’m in my classroom on a Saturday — TN passed a law, my kids are asking if they can read books and I’m having to say NO until I catalogue everything and get it all approved.”😳 Underappreciated. Underpaid. Untrusted. #GOPTeacherShortage

After hearing Ron Necciai's name mentioned at one of the Research Presentations at #SABR50 it was nice to see an article about him in today's NYT Sports nytimes.com/2022/08/17/spo…

I got the first six calls right, but missed the last one. I used to umpire Little League Fall Ball games, but those pitches came in a little slower! You Be the Ump 6/7 ✅✅✅✅✅✅⚪️ nyti.ms/3SJsFaS

This is how BBC opened coverage of World Cup 2022. Stark contrast to Fox Coverage in United States. Please take a minute to watch. This is how this World Cup should be contextualized 🙌

Jim Leyland was one of a kind. If you're a baseball fan, especially of the #pirates, #tigers or #marlins, you'll want to read this story just published on the SABR BioProject sabr.org/?p=36870

Was glad to see 4 of the 5 local tennis courts being used on a balmy New Year's Day here in CT, while the 3 pickleball courts were empty. Tennis isn't dead yet! The Tennis Podcast @Noahrubin33

I love #AbbottElementary ! 🤣 I hope in tonight's episode they mention that the over 202,000 students in Philadelphia School District only have 7 librarians! All students deserve access to books & a full-time librarian.

Yesterday we logged almost 200 challenges- about 150 of those resulted in immediate removals. This is a picture of all the books removed from one HS library, in one day, in one District, due to the objections of one man. This is not freedom. #FreeTheBooks

Fun fact. #Tigers are 1-11 vs. AL East, 8-2 against everyone else! Sarah Langs Cody Stavenhagen Jason Beck Buster Olney Ken Rosenthal

“We are angry. We are frustrated. We are insulted; our degree, required by the state, means less than one parent’s right to choose. They will now mandate what is selected based on their biased personal beliefs, and not our professional degrees.” publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/ch…

This Admin has proven it will always double down at the expense of its citizens. It’s not about doing right, it’s about being right (no matter how wrong they are). The end result may not be smaller libraries, it could be none at all. wpbf.com/article/florid…
