ProPublica@propublica

@vermont_morgan @solmnambulist The chapters about the march on Winterfell in the snow are probably my favorite in the entire series.
I think the Meereen plot is interesting for the murky politics that’s going on (Green Grace, the shavepates, impact on the slave trade, diplomacy with the Yunkish, etc).

@vermont_morgan @solmnambulist I firmly believe the best book is a combined Feast + Dance.

@solmnambulist it seems everybody else agrees Feast is the worst and Storm is the best, but I promise I'm not being contrarian. I didn't like Feast on first read in high school but after going through them again there's no question it's my favorite

Grace Panetta@grace_panetta
Sunday marked 30 years since Congress passed FMLA. The groundbreaking law was supposed to be just the start and a jumping-off point — but its core promises, and the hopes of the advocates who fought for it, remain unfulfilled. From @MelLeonor_ and me: 19thnews.org/2023/02/family…
