i love seeing all the advice this month about libraries and library cards but my one gripe is that everyone is like “oh ask your non-reader/bookish friends to get you a card and let you use it” ALL MY FRIENDS ARE READERS!!! how am i supposed to amass library cards under these conditions

i just saw someone on TikTok call Bioshock a “niche game” and i fear they don’t know what niche means

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

I think it's really important to get out and meet people and build community - and I think it's also important to keep in mind that there are a lot of structural barriers to doing so for many people, and it's rarely as easy as just pushing yourself to be more social.

To me, seeing someone announce art or good news during terrible times isn't like trying to sell balloons at a funeral, it's like getting hugged at that funeral. When maybe you didn't know how much you needed that hug. From anyone. Or everyone. Folks need all the soul fuel they can get.
