Still working through these, and even more convinced that they offer an essential & paradigm-altering perspective worth your time 👇🏻

ps I have added these and a few other books I love & recommend to my Bookshop shop because I genuinely love them & want to help support independent bookstores. It’s an affiliate link; I’ve attached screenshots of their policy & what that means 👍🏻 bookshop.org/shop/cecereads

My bookshop page is ~mostly so I can keep track of books I find that are actually
- good
- age-appropriate for my toddler
- by #ownvoices authors
- & at my public library

So if you’re interested in kids books you can find the ones we love there! bookshop.org/shop/cecereads

Another book I think should be required reading for anyone learning about US History—SLAVE NATION by Alfred W. & Ruth G. Blumrosen. You knew the civil war was about slavery, but did you know the revolutionary war was too? Super readable, super engaging, super recommended.

@alexisalexisaaa @calliomally I heard it as “it takes 7 “contacts” (not “no’s”) before someone is ready to receive the gospel,” with the idea being we never know what good we can do/focus on member work, but can see how it would get very quickly and easily confused, esp by eager young missionaries.

@alexisalexisaaa

@alexisalexisaaa @calliomally Like, I heard it as, “it takes 7 contacts, and you never know which one you are, so offer the gospel to everyone (but if they say no it’s okay because someone else could be the 7th one.)” Not, “knock on someone’s door 8 times until they say yes.”

@alexisalexisaaa

@alexisalexisaaa @calliomally It was more to remind us not to pre-judge people, & to remind us it’s okay to let people go & respect their boundaries and NOT hound them if we weren’t their “7th person.” But I can see how it could be used the wrong way!

If you’re married irl, are you married in your dreams?

If you’re in a significant/serious/long-term relationship irl (that may or may not include marriage,) are you in your dreams?

Is there a pandemic/elements of the pandemic (masks, social distancing, etc) in your dreams?

We found out last night Conor’s university is explicitly prohibiting teachers from telling their students if another student they were in class with tests positive for COVID. Which seems like.... something people should know?

I 100% believe we need to protect students’ medical privacy; teachers should take great care not to reveal the identity of the person who tested positive. But to not be allowed to tell students they’ve been exposed to a positive case seems.... very dangerous???

Instructors are also *not allowed* to move the class online after finding out a student has tested positive (and that all their other students have been potentially exposed.) They can *request* to move online, but it won’t be automatically granted.

How long do you think universities will last before going all online

How long do you think K-12 schools will last

I’m torn because “when will things become unsustainably unsafe” and “when will governments actually shut everything down” are two (unfortunately) RADICALLY different questions 🙃

Just received our copy of HOLY TROUBLEMAKERS & UNCONVENTIONAL SAINTS and I am BEYOND delighted; look at how amazing this looks 😍😍😍

It highlights the stories of women, queer & trans people, indigenous people, Black people, & others who have been left out of the story for too long, & it isn’t limited to Christian “Saints.” & it’s BEAUTIFUL.

Short, engaging, biographical stories with questions to ponder at the end.

We got our copy for free not in exchange for a review but because I emailed the author & said we’d love a copy but couldn’t afford one. If you’re able to support them, please do! holytroublemakers.com
