Does anyone else get stressed out watching The Bear? This is not a criticism - I really enjoy it but currently 3 episodes in to season 3 and I feel tightly wound up at the end of each episode.

I saw this in the response to Brownback's 2 terms in my home state of KS. Is this "leopards ate her face" stuff, yes, but IMHO it would behoove people on the left to look for these kinds of opportunities to align w ppl we otherwise might find no common ground with.

Hey #Library folk, you too can set up a "register to vote" display in your library. If you need inspiration this is one I created for the previous election cycle and updated for 2024 📚 📜

According to Justice Sotomayor's dissent: “Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune."

I have discovered an anti-woke librarian that calls themself "The Based Librarian" I guess right-wing librarians keep the Library Force balanced but in my experience Lefty Library folk will help conservative people find the books they want without hindrance
