It's #IndependentBookstoreDay! I *love* bookstores, especially indies. I'm a recovering bookseller (love you, @BakkaPhoenix!) and an inveterate, absurdly optimistic book buyer - this weekend, I bought 3 books at the @latimes #BookFest, from @PagesMB and Octavia's Bookshelf!

Supporting indie bookstores doesn't mean foregoing the convenience of buying online. @librofm pioneered a model where you nominate your favorite local bookstore, which receives part of the proceeds from every audiobook you buy at Libro (where all the audiobooks are DRM-free).

What comes after neoliberalism? "There is no alternative" is really a demand, namely, "Stop trying to think of an alternative!"

We all should reciprocate the support that @SupFletcher gave to all of #SanDiego County during the #COVID19 #pandemic. He and other county officials responsible for our health were subjected to irrational and venomous attacks for their efforts to save constituents' lives.
His house was firebombed just over a year ago. His partisan conversion drew constant invective from extremists, people who menace their neighbors.
Understandably, a man who survived combat in uniform wouldn't expect to be assaulted by #fascist nihilists after being elected to a constitutional office.

(1/7) Our children are not for sale! I am pushing for California Senate Bill 357 (loitering with intent to sell sex) to be repealed by CA Governor @GavinNewsom , Senate President Pro Tem @SenToniAtkins , and Assembly Speaker @RendonAD62 as quickly as possible.
(2/7) Although this law now essentially making loitering with intent to sell sex legal was well intentioned seeking to protect victims it will most likely be a civil rights assault on the most vulnerable victims of human trafficking which are children.
(3/7) 60% of trafficking victims are foster youth & they are among the most vulnerable when it comes to perpetrators. A recent operation conducted by local, state & federal officials in #sandiego led to 48 arrests & uncovered 8 children and youth victims including a 13 year old.
