Sandra, back when Twitter was brand new and I was an early enough adopter that I was able to simply use my own name on my account, I think the second or third account I followed was Joy of Tech. I still catch their wonderful work occasionally; there's a lot of competition for eyeballs on social media these days.

I'm reading Book and Dagger: How Scholars and Librarians Became the Unlikely Spies of World War II. There are some fascinating parallels between what Hitler was doing and what Trump is doing. The book came out in 2024, before the election, but I think as she wrote she was well aware of the tendencies that Trump had been leaning toward, I think that's a big reason why this was written after watching his first term. First they came for the books, then the people. Hitler burned the books, then the people; the xtian nationalists are simply getting them all banned, or as with the people, deported to wherever the heck they think they can get away with sending them.
