Workspace with computer, journal, books, coffee, and glasses.Happy Wednesday!

We finally have a break from the rain in my area, though I think it’s due to start back up again tomorrow. On the plus side, a couple friends and I are doing a reading and crafting weekend. We’ve rented a cute beach house, divided up the meals, and I’m so looking forward to just getting cozy. I’m hoping that being away from my computer will allow me to make some progress on a couple books and my cross stitch project.

Time to check-in with y’all! How are we doing this week?

This link came from Cori:

I wanted to share a link for a cause deep in the DNA of SBTB. Almost twenty years ago now (wow!) the whole Cassie Edwards controversy got us all interested in Black Footed Ferrets, some of the cutest critically endangered little guys around. Unfortunately they are still in deep trouble, and some significant conservation projects have been cut off at the knees by the freezing of federal funds. This fundraiser is focusing on ferret conservation efforts on tribal lands and maintaining the experts that are helping lead that process. Also there are cute ferret pictures!

Goodnight Moon postage stamps on coming out at the beginning of May! They’re super cute. 

From JCP:

I wanted to alert you of the online petition at ALA for your American followers to fight against the federal cuts to libraries & museums in the US. Once you put your name and address in and press submit, it goes automatically to your US representatives. I also hope everyone is able to get library card if they do not have one already because numbers make a difference. If  you’re able, please call your representatives!

After coming out in defense of using AI last year, NaNoWriMo has announced it will be shutting down. Their statement on the closure is quite…interesting. (To me, it gives “RWA declaring bankruptcy and blaming DEI” vibes.)

Don’t forget to share what cool or interesting things you’ve seen, read, or listened to this week! And if you have anything you think we’d like to post on a future Wednesday Links, send it my way!
