Book Club: Do you remember your favorite book from childhood? The Dear America Series lives rent free in my heart

Type your email… Subscribe Do you remember your favorite book from childhood? It's difficult for me to choose a favorite book, but I do have amazing memories from a favorite series. Back when I was nine years old, the girls in my class were toting these gorgeously bound books complete with classical portraits, elegant fonts, and ribbon bookmarks. When I asked what they were reading, one girl…

One thing I appreciate about Barbie was the emphasis on age.

I was emotional when Barbie told the old woman how beautiful she was, and when Ruth came in and helped her become human.

It was also the fact that America Ferrera was the one having the crisis that caused Barbie to do the same.

The whole concept of the toy doesn't end in childhood. Cause she is an idea; Barbie is forever. She's everything. She's meant to inspire women to keep going for what they dream. You don't age out of these ideas, they grow with you, just like how Margot Robbie grew with America Ferrera.

I WEEP #it just means so much to me: Marc getting some support both from the system and from Cap #as well as how in character this is for Cap #as some of my favorite moments of his are where he reaches out to those deemed by others too ‘unstable’ or ‘unreliable’ to ever amount to #much in the grand scheme of things and he asks them to be Avengers #recognizing what invaluable talents they posses #could the cynical say this reads like a Saturday morning psa? sure but this is an infinity comic with Cap.

Getting this off my chest, but I worked in a small museum at my job and we had a display about the indigenous people who lived in the area. I was asked twice what they were called (the display was directly in front of them when they asked), and twice I referred to them in the present tense and stated that they still live in the area, and TWICE my information was retold in the PAST TENSE and everything else ignored.

Only once did a random guy who gave off weird vibes at first ask if we had any books about the native people because he could not find any anywhere and really wanted to learn and support them. Went out of our way to jot down titles written by members of the tribe, and he was so sweetly grateful.

People really do just default to "I miss the natives. Sometimes, it's like I can still hear their voices" when they are literally still here
