This is actually a great idea... Any other neurodiverse folks out there with circa 60 tabs open?

One of my fave memes, god grant me strength to attend a library webinar without the mention of ai 📚📜

My face when yet another vendor/ platform mentions AI #Library 📚 #Librarysky

Read what #CILIPScotland colleague Kirsten MacQuarrie has to say on feminist librarianship and the lack of male peers: "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a job well-valued, in every sense, will not be in want of male colleagues."⤵️

"The results are back from the employee consultation. They'd like more flexible working, better work/life balance, salary increases....." "So what I'm hearing is that they want bees...."

Can we all collectively decide to have a half term please

Made a little felt Triffid, based on the Penguin paperback cover. In retrospect I wish I hadn’t chosen the most nutsack colour to sew what was already quite a bollockular form but sometimes I quite enjoy having created myself a bit of an obstacle to deal with, or in this case, a testicle to surmount

Can you imagine the size of it though? How is there still a week left of Jan to go! 🤷‍♀️

Yes!!!! #Sunday #SundayDinner #glutenFree

Joyous day last week: just me and my book for company 😊

Me, when I haven’t pencilled on my eyebrows:

Rest is *good*, unscheduled time is *good.* You are not always either producing or decaying. Creativity flows from shutting things up enough to hear yourself, to be able to synthesize everything you’ve taken in lately.

Important data collation:

Went to the pictures: 10/10- no notes

"Buffet size" means "you can fit a whole packet of 50 in your stomach and still be hungry". But (hypothesis) it only works with foods that are normally big: I can't eat 50 falafel, for example, and not for want of trying.

I feel once again compelled to emphasis the digitizing in the literal scanning sense is fairly unimportant if it is not accompanied with metadata providing context for discovery. Both humans and AI will make things up when they don't know what they are looking at.

my year of using the crying-and-laughing react on 100% of the texts I receive, without exceptions, has resulted in a 40% decrease in overall texts received. Strongest recommendation

Working a museum a lady brought in a dead rabbit (in a plastic carrier bag) from the adjacent park… Like did she want me stuff it and put it on display?

Motto of the day: #MondayMorning

Whole heartedly agree. I love to run on the big field with the dog in the morning when no one is about… not like running as in jogging but running/laughing/playful. It’s a delight. More of this please!

Not all heroes wear capes: First women elected to uk parliament, A suffragist and member of Sinn Féin. I need to know more about this gal!

Happy to be both:

Low on the list of reasons physical media needs to make a major comeback, gift giving is so much easier/more fun/more options. Now everything is gift card.

Yeah, we only hide books full of terrible arcane secrets and otherworldly curses.

Just been told about a conference where in the lunch break they offered free winter flu vaccines to any attendees who hadn’t had one - brilliant conference freebie!
