As a CODA, I demand better for both our valued interpreters and communication assistants AND the deaf/Deaf/HoH communities.

Exactly. It’s insane the gaslighting that’s happening. I voted in the local primary election two weeks ago and had to show my driver’s license and confirm my address. The poll worker even actually looked at my face to ensure it matched the photo!

What are we doing here, folks?! Banning books while we’re at war for no reason?! While families are ripped apart?! While people lose everything because they can’t afford healthcare?!

I need to finish the PBS documentary on the former. Will look up An American Pastoral now!

Was thinking the exact same thing. Shameful.

Comment of the day, truly. It applies to every single thing this admin says: it meets not a single moment we’re experiencing.

So true! I eat a ton when in India but always lose weight - more walking, yes, but also better food and preparation.

Absolutely stunning 😍 I’d love to have this in my reading room!

Have you tried writing in the margins, underlining/highlighting favorite passages, and/or writing a short summary after reading? I found that these activities help quite a bit 😊 Joining a book club may also help because then you’re reading with the intent to discuss.

When someone suggests putting yourself on a budget so you don’t spend as much money on books. Let’s not and say we did.

I see the captions automatically. It may be a setting change on your end?

So true. Here in Houston, rents are so high that several folks have started bookstore pop-ups or bookmobiles instead of investing in brick and mortar.
