- Do not look at your 401k. Do not look at your 401k. Do not look at your 401k. Do not look at your 401k. Do not look at your 401k. Do not look at your 401k. Do not look at your 401k.
- Because 2025 wasn't 2025ing enough, Casey Anthony is now on tiktok advocating on behalf of victims of violence. Unfortunately, legitimizing and platforming sociopaths is pretty on brand for America right now. But here's what we're not going to do...🧵 (1/4)
- This is clearly a cash grab. The money from her docuseries has dried up and she's banking on the fact that we're going to flock to her page en masse and give her views and a platform. But we're not going to do that. 🧵 (2/4)
- Instead, we're going to turn her nonsense all the way off. Do not subscribe to her tiktok account. Do not subscribe to her substack. If your curiosity won't allow you to stay off her page, then watch the stitches and duets from other creators. But do NOT go to her page. 🧵 (3/4)
- I know it's human nature to be curious, but I can promise there is nothing that woman has to say that is worth giving her enough clicks and views to continue to happily live her best life. Don't fall for the okye doke y'all.🧵 (4/4)
- Y’all ever just stop and realize we’re floating through endless space on a giant rock, paying bills? Like, why?

Teens can sign out ebooks + audiobooks The move is designed to combat censorship, with some titles listed as "always available." www.bklynlibrary.org/media/press/...
- Malala Yousafzai is a powerhouse when it comes to fighting for girls' education. As a teen, she stood up to the Taliban & survived an assassination attempt. Instead of backing down, she became an even louder voice for change. She is the youngest Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. 🩷💪🏾 ♀️ #WomensHistoryMonth

- If you don't want to participate in the economic blackout today, that's on you. But chill on the dissertation-length think pieces about how "it won't work." That's not what today is. Pls step aside so the rest of us can do the heavy lifting. I'm not arguing with folks Harriet would have left behind.
- We all understand the assignment today, right?
- This is so sad. Michelle Trachtenberg was such a huge part of my childhood, Harriet the Spy, Dawn in Buffy, and of course, the one and only Georgina Sparks. Thank you for the memories, Michelle. Rest easy. 💔
- More 👏🏾 Of 👏🏾 This 👏🏾
- People will look you dead in the eye and say they don't see the thing that all of us see when looking at the faces of all the anchors that have "exited" NBC this week. You are not crazy. You are not overreacting. Exactly what you think is happening, is happening.
- As the country's first HBCU, Cheyney University of Pennsylvania has been building Black excellence, breaking barriers, and shaping leaders since 1837. The Nation's first and oldest HBCU is still standing strong. 📖 🤎 #BlackHistoryMonth #HBCU #BlackSky
- I was today years old when I discovered that the country's first HBCU was founded in Philly, and I'm from Philly. Cheyney University of Pennsylvania. The more you know. 📖 🤎 #BlackSky
- Reposted by Being ReeseWe just published a Graphic Novel about Robert Smalls! “Captain Robert Smalls: The Titan" (Abridged) by DaShan Thomas🚢. Great for older kids, teen & adult readers Unabridged version: “Captain Robert Smalls: The Greatest Civil War Hero” #edusky #booksky #blackbooksky #blacksky
- Just finished my 8th book of the year. Definitely behind my usual pace. By February, I'm normally pushing 20-25 books. If you're in a reading slump, don't feel bad, it's not you. It's hard to enjoy a good book when the whole country is on fire. Give yourselves some grace. 📖 🩷 #BlackBookSky #BookSky
- Mood.
- Wait, y'all really let me walk around for years not knowing that the voice actress for Violet Sorrengail in the Fourth Wing series is this beautiful bookish Black girlie?! 📖 🤎 #BlackBookSky #BookSky #BlackHistoryMonth
- Every day in 2025 so far 🥴
- Only a few more weeks until Oathbound hits the shelves. Have you already pre-ordered? 💜❤️ #BlackBookSky
- Reposted by Being ReeseFebruary is Black History Month. Honor Black authors by reading their books. #BookSky
- Reposted by Being ReeseBook bans impact public libraries & bookstores, but it’s school libraries where they are rampant ❤️🩹 Many kids are unable to make it to the public library. They can’t drive, often times the library isn’t in walking distance. It’s not that their grown-ups don’t want them to be library kids. 🧵 1/11
- I have two reading moods: 1. I’ll devour anything in sight. 2. None of the 2,000 books on my shelf feel right. And there is no in between. #Booksky
- Not me spending the last 30 minutes making lunch for my kids for school tomorrow, and then remembering it's a federal holiday, so they don't have school tomorrow 😬😭🤣
- One of these things is not like the other 🤔
- Waking up an hour early tomorrow so I can go to the grocery store + gas station and stick these everywhere. ✨️🩷 👇🏾 tinyurl.com/4st936j2
- Stop 👏🏾 mocking 👏🏾 immigrants 👏🏾 for 👏🏾 their 👏🏾 English 👏🏾 when 👏🏾 they 👏🏾 already 👏🏾 speak 👏🏾 more 👏🏾 languages 👏🏾 than 👏🏾 you 👏🏾 ever 👏🏾 will 👏🏾

- Reposted by Being Reese“For me, literacy means freedom. For the individual and for society.” “So read the books they're banning, that's where the good stuff is! If they don't want you to read it, there's a reason why.” Born on this day in 1957 LeVar Burton #BookSky
- Little Free Libraries are underrated gems 📖✨️ ✔️ Free books, no strings attached ✔️ Encourages reading ✔️ Promotes sustainability ✔️ Turns neighborhoods into book-sharing hubs. Take a book, leave a book, spread the love. Found any good reads in one? #BookSky #BlackBookSky
- I'm trying to see something: Comment below if you have a copy of the newspaper the day after Obama won in 2008. Bonus points if you have a picture of it.
- I no longer argue about racism with people who claim to have Black friends. I just ask to see their wedding photos or a picture of their last brunch meet-up.
- ::Sigh:: Bird flu has been detected in raw milk, and the WHO literally can't communicate this with the public. We're getting ready to have another pandemic, aren't we? 😭
- Dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler was the first African American woman to earn a medical degree in the United States. She dedicated her life to caring for underserved communities and newly freed African Americans despite constant racism and sexism. Because of her, we can! 🩺🤎 #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackSky
- I'm really struggling with the fact that in the year 2025, people around my big age still don't know about 40 acres and a mule. How is that even possible?
