We use birthday to narrow down patrons who have lost their card. Thatβs how I look myself up to check our books, etc. it never fails to astonish me how many active patrons in our system share my exact birthday. I donβt know why I expect all the peeps born on a random Friday 51 years ago to be dead.
This is perfect, please, all, spread this and do this. Libraries need you to take a stand
Lemme try. Does βIβm Gonna Be (500 Miles) by the Proclaimers count? It must be the Doctor Who version youtu.be/2c6qENWh2jQ?...
I would LOVE to have that kind of βwin!β I must research this! (Luckily, I have easy access to an amazing reference department at work. Who helms this amazing team? Why that would be me!) #humblebrag

Itβs one thing to be an adult hearing this news. It sucks. But what really tears me up is thinking about the kids that are watching themselves, family or friends being legally βremoved.β Part of the identity they are trying to figure out is illegal to read about?
Went to a (very interesting) talk and accompanying exhibition on Friday about the areas where art meets mathematics and geometry.
Was most impressed with this daring exploration of geometric form until I realised it's where they display the cakes when the cafΓ© is open.
Like I tell the THIRD GRADERS who visit our library, βbooks love us, just like we love books. Would you staple your ear to your face? No!!! Please donβt make the book sad.β Then we make bookmarks & get back to fun.
Also federal law enforcement agents, wildland firefighters, and anyone else who actually puts their life on the line for the country
I didn't even know it existed! How cool!
one day weβll just turn around and instead of twitter there will be a Spirit Halloween
Iβm shocked and disappointed that this arises from a suit brought by Valancourt (which Iβve long recommended for their work to republish early Gothic works). I donβt know that I will going forward.
@vfo.bsky.social please add me to library lists. Please?

I am so glad I have an alternative to that place!
Texas is bluer RIGHT NOW than Georgia was in 2012. Forsaking the south is a moral and strategic mistake. Elevating disenfranchised voters across the country is one of the single most effective tools (with regard to electoral politics) we have for curbing the encroachment of fascism
Sitting in an Orlando hotel waiting out Hurricane Idalia, I figured rather than write a new screed about TV reporters standing in dangerous areas during big storms, I'd just repost the last diatribe I wrote for the last storm. READ: loom.ly/NMCfEYI
me: whatβs crazy is that rudy giuliani first rose to fame because of 9/11
teen born in 2006: ohh. like he helped do it
me: ok no, but i see how you got there
It's a fucking crime so many people under 40 know nothing about Bill Hicks.
Weekend!

New College students find new campuses and a tuition deal: "To date, 88 studentsβmore than 12% of New College's student bodyβhave transferred to Hampshire or are in the application process"

"New College doesn't have any athletic facilities and hasn't yet been accepted to the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics."
