I was just at the Tractor Supply Co and was chatting with the person filling my propane cylinder. He was working there because they cover infertility care. Good to see a company making a positive choice. @tsc #infertility #insurance #medical

Young people: The GOP is floating an amendment to raise the voting age from 18 to 25. Vivek Ramaswamy is openly promoting it. They’re scared of your votes and want to silence you. Act appropriately in 2024.

“AR Gov Sanders suggests course on Black history spreads ‘hate’ against U.S.”

Gaiman spoke with I Love Libraries recently about libraries, comic books, book banning in the U.S., movies, and more.
