someone show this apology to rupaul
Just wanted to point out. That’s how an appology should be done. An acknowledgment that you hurt someone, what you’re going to do better next time. An explanation of your reasoning of your actions without attempting to make an excuse.
here it is! Probably one of the most influential things in my childhood. four different versions of same pencil of the Incredible Hulk, I believe by Mike Zeck, inked by four outstanding inkers.
this is what an inker does

This quarter (Half year? We have no schedule) read and discussed “Murder, Magic, and What We Wore” by Kelly Jones!
The general consensus from the YA @ Heart ladies was “wanted more murder and magic, and less of what we wore.”
These were our group sourced “lady spy in regency London” recommendations:
Etiquette & Espionage (Finishing School #1) by Gail Carriger
Sorcery & Cecelia: or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot (Cecelia and Kate #1)by Patricia C. Wrede and Caroline Stevermer
(or general badass and spy type femme in historic dress)
A Spy in the House (The Agency #1) by Y.S. Lee
A Tyranny of Petticoats (A Tyranny of Petticoats #1)
I was a HUGE fan of the Amelia Bedelia books as a kid, and this is a truly fitting tribute. #Blessed
Every time my boss walks into my office y’all have just reblogged some star wars meme or a Russian cat and Tumblr’s stuck one of those artsy(??) gifs of like, an eggplant fighting a penguin or something in the sidebar and I just know this is gonna end up getting a mention in my performance review…
How about an artsy cat? (I’m so sorry.)
It’s fine, I got this
There. Totally work-related.
So proud of the IL librarians and community members and board who stood up to the community group who demanded that “This Day in June” be removed from the library collection. That happened THIS YEAR. @americanlibraryassoc’s Banned Books Week is important.

Here is more information on the challenge this book faced this year at the West Chicago Public Library: http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170829/west-chicago-library-to-leave-lgbt-book-in-childrens-section
Don’t give up on reading. Some days you’re too busy, too tired, too distracted. Don’t worry. You’ll come back.

In Under the Same Stars, Rose Christo comes clean about "My Immortal" through a heart-wrenching tale about her time in the New York foster system.
honestly, her book looks amazing.

I have to reblog for two reasons:
1)This is actually a good way to get people into reading.
2)That passive aggressive joke in the last one is pure genius.
I completely lost it by the time I reached the end.
Libraries stand for equal access for all. Net neutrality is crucial to this mission. For more information on how you can defend Net Neutrality (and why you should), check out @americanlibraryassoc‘s Day of Action page.
I want people to stop thinking that alternative methods of communication are subpar to speaking
I want people to stop treating signed languages, writing and various technology as stepping-stones to “speaking properly”
I want people to stop treating people who can’t speak verbally like they’re less intelligent for their inability to use speech
I want more emphasis in disability circles to be put on the general ability to communicate rather than just the ability to speak words
communication ability > speaking ability
Five Favs: Books with LGBTQ Characters
What do you read if you love fantasy and representation? I highly recommend the following:
Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
A fantasy heist novel featuring a racially diverse cast of characters, including a bisexual gunslinger and a gay demolitions expert. Part of a duology (book two is called Crooked Kingdom).
A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab
What’s the opposite of bisexual erasure? Because basically everyone in this series is bi. V.E. Schwab has stated that “it is a world that cares about magical hierarchy more than heteronormativity.”
Every Heart a Doorway by Seanan McGuire
How many fantasy novels do you run across with an asexual main character? Not enough (and in fact, this one is technically a novella). Here you will also find a transgender character and explicit discussion about gender roles and nonconformity.
Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard by Rick Riordan
Each of Riordan’s novels is more inclusive than the last, but we don’t meet my favorite argyle-wearing pottery-making genderfluid einherji until book two (The Hammer of Thor). Book 1, of course, is still well worth the read (Muslim Valkyrie? Yes please.)
The Will of the Empress by Tamora Pierce
The Circle of Magic books were a staple of my childhood. Imagine my delight when one of the main characters comes out as a lesbian in book 9! Plus, in books 1- 8, we get Lark and Rosethorn, two ladies living together in domestic bliss who raise our main characters. Start this series with Sandry’s Book.
Happy Pride, and happy reading!
