How many books should I take on holiday with me? (For Guardian Books)

Title: How many books should I take on holiday with me?
Image: A seemingly helpful flowchart that begins with the the question "Have you got a book in your suitcase" but soon becomes a recursive loop causing the reader to put an ever-increasing quantity of books into larger and larger suitcases.

A while back, I read about a nasty campaign against Bluestockings bookstore from some of their neighbors. So I sat down with one of the store's worker-owners to find out how they're holding up -- and to learn more about how YOU can support queer/feminist bookstores. buttondown.email/charliejane/...

I’ve written before about why bookstores are more than just excellent places to discover your new favorite author. They’re also community spaces and key...

*taps the sign* Molly Ivins in Mother Jones, 1993:

So keep fightin' for freedom and justice, beloveds, but don't you forget to have fun doin' it. Lord, let your laughter ring forth. Be outrageous, ridicule the fraidy-cats, rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce. And when you get through kickin' ass and celebratin' the sheer joy of a good fight, be sure to tell those who come after how much fun it was.

I don’t use it much here, it’s hard to follow, don’t love the threads situation, feel like I see accounts I don’t follow more than those I do. #oldDogNewTricks

I know I know I should get off Twitter. But NolaTwitter is my community. Just got a suspension for saying I hope someone got hit in the ass on his way out the door. Because that’s violent 😆🥴🤣

It sure is getting warmer here in my neck of the urban woods in North Carolina, like many other places. To find a "Show Us Your Stripes" graphic for cities near you in the U.S., go here: www.climatecentral.org/stripes-info...#ShowYourStripes

A graphic with a series of vertical stripes in shades of blue or red, in the “Warming Stripes” style from Climate Central, shows temperature anomalies relative to 20th-century average (1901-2000), covering the period from 1887-2023 for the Raleigh-Durham area. There is a dense band of red stripes towards the right-hand edge of the graph, for the most recent years, showing how much hotter average temperatures have been lately.

It's stupid and cruel to prosecute someone for a victimless crime they committed while addicted, especially after they've rehabilitated. And any system that allows that doesn't deserve much respect. But otherwise, yeah.
