Free Audiobooks and Ebooks on OVERDRIVE.
Free Graphic Novels (DC, Marvel, Image, etc), Music, TV shows, and music on HOOPLA.
Free music that you can KEEP on FREEGAL
You are PAYING for all this with your tax money - USE THEM. Most likely systems will have all 3 or 2 out of 3, so if you aren’t sure call your local library’s reference/information desk and how you can get set-up or started.
Hey, highkey from a library worker:
Overdrive has a new mobile app called LIBBY I find it easier to use. It’s the same content as Overdrive just better for mobile. Overdrive and Libby both let you send items to your kindle as well.
Can confirm Overdrive is amazing.
I work in the largest library system in my state (17 branches in total).
I use it not only for ebooks, but movies as well.
Other FREE resources to check with your library for are:
- Freegal Music (download and keep music, including current music)
- Hoopla Digital (borrow ebooks, e-audiobooks, e-graphic novels, stream movies)
- Kanopy (stream movies; also available on Roku!)
- Axis360 (usually hot or just released ebooks)
If you don’t have a library card…
GET ONE!
If someone says libraries are a thing of the past…
BOOP THEM IN THE NOSE WITH YOUR KINDLE!
Don’t discount libraries as “quiet” places.
THEY ARE ALIVE!!!
THEY ARE LOUD!!!
THEY ARE YOUR DOORWAYS TO KNOWLEDGE!!

Do you think you could provide some sources where I could learn more about this? I don’t think youre lying or anything, but I’ve never heard anything about this being a contemporary issue and if it is happening, I’d like to learn more.

These are only a handful of countries Christians experiences intense persecution. It can be hard to find articles from a non-Christian source about this, but I did my best. That fact alone goes to show that the big names in media don’t really care about international Christian perseuction. It’s devastating and perpetuates the stereotype that Christians never suffer persecution in modern times.
The Coming Summer, Ep 5, “Christian Persecution”
Somewhere in the world, a Christian dies for their faith every six minutes.
I’m not a Christian but it’s been clearly show non-western Christians are the most persecuted group on the planet, mostly at the hands of Islamic or Communist governments.
How To Appeal A Post When You Don’t Have The Appeal Button
Since the 17th about 12 of my posts where flagged as adult content and when I went to try and appeal it there was no appeal button. I went through their help and read the whole article. I even contacted support who then copied and pasted their help page not even trying to assist me. All I know is that there was supposed to be a button for the original creator to click and allow up to appeal but there wasn’t.
On my computer:
On the app:
See no button for appeal.
It has taken me days to figure out this work around and I thought some other people out there might be having this issue.
Now here is how you appeal your post when you don’t have the appeal button
Now go through your blog and find all your pages with censored posts clicking on them to take you to the original post.
Take a look at the url.
See that number there? Copy it!
Open up a new page and type in this:
At the end paste that number.
When you hit enter you will get this:
The appeal button is finally there! Click it!
You’ll get this message and then you’ll click appeal again.
Your post is now being appealed.
You can check that it was fixed just by refreshing your blogs page.
And that’s it! I know it is stupid and ridiculous to do such a ridiculous back method but unfortunately it’s the only solution I’ve come up with.
Also no you can’t just use the weird sidebar dashboard to find it as any flagged posts don’t actually show up at all in it.
Anyways I hope this helps you guys.
When you see it, REBLOG IT.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME
8 vegetables that you can regrow again and again.
Scallions
You can regrow scallions by leaving an inch attached to the roots and place them in a small glass with a little water in a well-lit room.
Garlic
When garlic begins to sprout, you can put them in a glass with a little water and grow garlic sprouts. The sprouts have a mild flavor than garlic and can be added to salads, pasta and other dishes.
Bok Choy
Bok choy can be regrown by placing the root end in water in a well-lit area. In 1-2 weeks , you can transplant it to a pot with soil and grow a full new head.
Carrots
Put carrot tops in a dish with a little water. Set the dish in a well-lit room or a window sill. You’ll have carrot tops to use in salads.
Basil
Put clippings from basil with 3 to 4-inch stems in a glass of water and place it in direct sunlight. When the roots are about 2 inches long, plant them in pots to and in time it will grow a full basil plant.
Celery
Cut off the base of the celery and place it in a saucer or shallow bowl of warm water in the sun. Leaves will begin to thicken and grow in the middle of the base, then transfer the celery to soil.
Romaine Lettuce
Put romaine lettuce stumps in a ½ inch of water. Re-water to keep water level at ½ inch. After a few days, roots and new leaves will appear and you can transplant it into soil.
Cilantro
The stems of cilantro will grown when placed in a glass of water. Once the roots are long enough, plant them in a pot in a well-lit room. You will have a full plant in a few months.
I really missed doing simple styles so here’s another one :D It’s been so cold I just want to be in a warm bath forever~
