@bookishdaddy That is being productive!!! Watching TV, playing games, scrolling on social is not being productive

i excitedly told my family that i’ve read almost 40 books so far this year. my mom just shook her head and walked away. my sister just looked at me and said “is that really all you do with your time?” i’m so done telling my family about anything i’m excited for 🙃

This all day long!!!

@SchottHappens 🤢🤮

@abmack33 They are trying to bully her into doing the censoring out of fear!

@vickiringer Omg! I have no words

Period poverty is a real thing causing girls to miss school because they don’t have the products they need while at school. Along comes this dude to object to it all. This is the most insane take on periods I’ve ever heard.

@BScottAnderson @sltrib If you follow the bright line on this challenge of the bible, as has been done on other books that have been challenged and removed then the Bible is removed as well

@sltrib The decision making body should simply laugh at this, then say: "Denied. We'll use the guidelines to ban bad books, not good books"

@koolaidgirl13 On my wedding day I had to take off the very small earrings that didn’t even dangle that my husband had given me for our wedding day, then the worker turned to my mil who was with me and commented how obedient I was and what a good wife I would make 😡

The first time I went to the temple to do baptisms, I wore pants. They were nice wool slacks, and no one in our 20-person entourage said anything before we left for our 2-hour drive to the temple. 1/

@kelseybogan I’m a jr high librarian and kids are always asking me for recommendations and I don’t know how you can recommend if you never read for your age group. I think it’s essential. There maybe other things that are essential like, liking kids but both can be equally essential

@bbalston Thank you for the opportunity! Would love this for my library

It's FREE BOOK WEEKEND! Just retweet, reply, and follow and I'll randomly select five winners to receive a signed special edition of AMARI AND THE NIGHT BROTHERS, a cool poster by Grant Snider, and an additional book of your choice!

@kelseybogan I’ve had that happen before and it’s maddening!

@abmack33 I had a rep from a book company who wanted me to buy books from them go off on a rant about that “woke” stuff needless to say I told him we couldn’t work together. Some of them believe it themselves

@kelseybogan Matched series

@CherylNunn The worst part of this bill is the rating system they want to put in place for all books. No one is talking about this part of the bill. It’s incredibly problematic and subjective to rate every book

I'm strongly against Utah’s Book Banning Bill H.B. 464 which passed the #Utah House Education Committee. It is a controversial bill that will allow any parent to complain about any book that they don't like and requires schools to conduct a review for every complaint, every time. #librarians #uted #utpol #utleg #eduhive #bookban #teacher @KenIvoryUT @HSG_UT @UTLEGtracker @myuea

@GomerPyle33 @sltrib Nope you are incorrect

@Librarygirl52 @sltrib Terrible analogy, not true at all. Equality is everyone has the opportunity to buy shoes. Equity is taking someone's shoes and giving them to another person that either can't or won't buy their own. Equity is a Marxist idea.

@GomerPyle33 @sltrib Equality is giving everyone shoes equity is making sure everyone’s shoes fit. Equity is important in making sure equality works. Making sure someone else’s shoes fit doesn’t mean your won’t

@sltrib Because we should have equality, not equity. Big difference.

@AmyAnn19692783 @sltrib And that’s what they do nothing more

@Librarygirl52 @sltrib Just tell them that it is a real family and then move on.
