I've lost my entire @thestorygraph.com history because I can't remember what email I used to log in. I have tried to do a password reset using every email address I use, and it doesn't recognize any of them. Other than GoodReads, does anyone have recommendations for apps to track your reading?

This is a continuation of the same disgusting garbage that enveloped the last few years of Stan's life, a bunch of grifters trying to scam their way to fortunes on Stan's good name.

DEEP DOWN has been selected as a “project we love” for the Kickstarter newsletter! The city is as deep as it is tall and these cops patrol the underground! Campaign launches NEXT WEEK! Here is the link to follow now and for more info: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mdo...

Loved "Age of Audio: the Inside Story of Podcasting" from @20k.bsky.social and look forward to seeing the film documentary of the same name!

I just backed The Reverse Centaur's Guide to Life After AI on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/doc...

it's me

we heard you hate AI, so at LFP we've been making resources for turning off AI features across the web. but we also don't think AI problems can be solved at an individual level, so we included some of our fav tools for community resistance as well. more to download free at libraryfreedom.org

I recorded three podcasts this week while I was sick and my voice sounds like crap. It was bad enough that I had to cancel my fourth scheduled interview bc I had lost my voice altogether. Sorry, listeners!

Oh my. This is spectacular. sinceyouarrived.world/taken

Has anything respectful ever followed the phrase, "With all due respect..."?

Circulating Ideas 310: Journalism Education, AI, and Local News, with Jeremy Shermak circulatingideas.com/2026/04/23/3...

I really enjoyed my conversation with Jeremy Shermak on the Circulating Ideas Podcast! We hit ideas around journalism, artificial intelligence, politics, teaching, and the larger media market. @circulatingideas.bsky.social circulatingideas.com/2026/04/23/3...

Librarians, assemble! I'm putting together my roster of authors to feature on the podcast over the summer. What suggestions do you have for authors who have books coming out this summer / fall?

When I go for a run in the park and I pass by someone with a dog, I always smile and wave at the dog. Sometimes I acknowledge the human with a smile and / or a nod.

While my daughter was at prom last night and our son was busy playing video games with his friend, my wife and I rewatched THUNDERBOLTS*. It is my favorite post-Endgame MCU movie and holds up to multiple viewings!

My daughter had her senior prom last night. Her SPED class went together as a group and had a great time!

My sweet, wonderful daughter was recognized by her school district as a recipient of their Caring Award! Two elementary school students, two middle school students, and two high school students were chosen as winners, out of 178,000+ students in the district. www.gcpsk12.org/get-connecte...

When I have an author on the podcast, it is generally someone on the midlist. This is not a complaint. Big Name Authors get PLENTY of publicity already! However, I just took a shot to schedule a Big Name Author to kick off the podcast's summer reading series. Will I be successful? 🤷🏻‍♂️

This story by @sheinvestigates.bsky.social is so so good and so so upsetting. Get ready to have your head explode www.propublica.org/article/rfk-...

I'm planning on writing a blog post about how to support laid off library workers. I'd be excited to hear your ideas or examples! 📚

It is really weird to me when people don’t like reading and books. I get not having enough time to read. I get wanting to read more, but there are just too many distractions around you. Obviously, I get having disabilities that make it difficult to read. But just not liking books? Who are you?

What are your favorite humor podcasts? I like a wide variety of things, from Conan O’Brien to Hello from the Magic Tavern, but looking for something new to make me laugh.

a thing i believed as a kid that i wish were actually true was that all my favorite authors were pretty rich

The iOS App Store featured library apps recently!

Who would've guessed that these two messages from @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social and @heykellyjensen.bsky.social would have been posted around the same time this morning?

To close out February, what are your romance takes? Either real life or fictional? Or both! Here is mine, and all of you will hate it... Friends to lovers should just stay friends. JUST STAY FRIENDS! Of course, secret baby troops don't fill me with incandescent rage so.... You?

Happy to share the excellent work of Terra Jacobson & Spencer Brayton! This is an interview we did for the @circulatingideas.bsky.social podcast about their new book on community college libraries. This is a nice discussion. A circulatingideas.com/2026/02/24/3...

I have started watching STRANGER THINGS for the first time. My kids are watching with me, but my wife is unsure if it is too scary for her. We're 3-4 episodes in, and I'm enjoying it so far.

"Assistant TO THE Emperor"

I just came up with a great succinct description for a new book club we're looking to launch at my branch: "Encourage reading while building community through conversation"

I am pragmatic about AI. I am open to anti-AI arguments around sustainability and the unethical methods used to train their models. I am critical of many of the ways that AI is being used and believe that most of the hype around the technology is purely to juice the stock of companies like OpenAI.
