But I'm really enjoying being a seasonal bookseller in B&N right now. Like, there's a part of me that could live an entire life inside a bookstore.

Lately feeling like associations are a better nth estate than anything related to news media. But also: Projection has always been the playbook. They always screamed "don't trust the media," and now you can't trust the media.

Trump isn’t defending religious communities — he’s waging war on them
(RNS) — The Trump administration is already the most harmful to religious freedom in modern American history.
One of my other hats is volunteering in Episcopal church governance and leadership, though it has waxed and waned over the years based on how much free time I have. So sharing this from Religion News on religious freedom

Image of the Statue of Liberty that says: Lawsuit Filed: Protecting the civil service from partisan takeover. President Trump's plan to replace career civil servants with political loyalists is unlawful. We're suing to stop it.
Teamup of note: @protectdemocracy.org has filed a suit on behalf of the Government Accountability Office and the National Active and Retired Federal Employees association (my former employer) challenging the Trump administration's attempts to dismantle the federal civil service.
