Side benefits of work in academic libraries. Attend #AfricaDay educational celebration, enjoy West African cuisine. I asked for a small sample and got a dinner portion! 😂 So tasty! #UniversityofKansas #lfk

Slightly harder to get a pic with today’s #infusionreading due to the lack of dust-jacket. My Arthurian scholarship has fallen by the wayside since university, so I am slowly ploughing through some more recent research. #arthurianlegend #arthurianstudies #lfk #nicholasjhigham

Started watching #Paradise based on everyone’s strong recommendation. So far it has been predictable yet comfortable. I really enjoy this kind of show. The ultimate locked-room mystery. I look forward to having my feet knocked out from under me, story-wise.

We’re going back to the mooooooon! #moonmission So excited! www.youtube.com/live/m3kR2KK...

If someone uses AI my immediate assumption is that they’re not very good at whatever it is they’re trying to do, and instead of being willing to do the work to become better, they’re looking for a cheat code.

Watched the latest season of The Lincoln Lawyer. I love it, but the last half hour always makes me tense up while waiting for the “surprise” cliffhanger. #thelincolnlawyer #lfk

Presented with only this comment from me. NO KINGS. #NoKings

New comics day for me courtesy of the @gameraspinning.bsky.social gifting library! Always so exciting! And I guess Happy St. Patrick’s Day to those who celebrate, or something. #newcomics #festivehat #returnofthefestivehat #lfk

I don’t even watch that much animated stuff currently. But this, I’d watch. The writers are veterans of Firefly, Agent Carter, and Legends of Tomorrow! #bringbackfirefly www.facebook.com/share/v/187P...

This is an excellent discussion of how some of the music worked in Sinners.

The OURA ring using ad music that reminds me of the #DEVS theme does not make me trust it.

Ok timeline cleanser. Show me your teen celebrity crushes in gifs.

Did the Orange Menace see the first Greenland movie and then decide he wanted Greenland? Is that what happened? Have the trailers for the second film set him off again? #Greenland

State of the hand, an update. First 2 pics are from just before corrective surgery at the end of September. Second set are from yesterday. Still doing physical therapy to improve flexibility & strength but this was totally worth it. #lupus #jointpain #lfk

Library wins. #IMLS www.imls.gov/news/stateme...

Repost this with five animals you’ve seen in the wild. Red foxes Coyotes Deer Snakes Bobcats

Library news boost.

State of the Laura update (hand). September surgery went well. I spent 6 weeks in casts and broke free last week. Physical therapy starts soon. Not to brag or anything, but this morning I put on a long sleeve shirt and my fingers stayed straight & didn’t get caught in the fabric. #lupus #handsurgery

Civic duty performed. #votingday #lfk #tinypegasusadventures

A movie you've seen more than seven times with a gif.

Going to start saying “No. Describe the function without those words/letters,” any time someone says a thing is done with “AI”. #ItsNotAI #lfk

State of the Laura update (physical). This is what my right hand looks like. Thanks lupus! (I mask a lot to make this less obvious.) On Monday, I’m having surgery to set my fingers back in the correct position. No, I don’t get claws, razor-fingernails, bionics, or to keep my knuckle bones. I asked.

Dear #projectrunway Holding the elimination for a week is stupid. I don’t care about the interpersonal drama. Show me people sewing garments and then judge the fashion. Sincerely, everyone.

If you see this, repost with a vampire that’s not Dracula.

I wish this was a full “adult-length” novel. The writing is solid and the world-building and characters so interesting that I wanted a lot more of them. #cheriedimaline #themarrowthieves #summerreading #readingcatchup

Got to see the fantastic Jack Kirby exhibit at the #skirballculturalcenter in LA last week. #jackkirby #costumecollege2025 Highly recommended.

My coworkers are probably quite tired of listening to me rant about this.

I am going to keep screaming this EVERY time: do you know how fucking many hoops animal behaviorists have to jump through to get research alleging that animals feel happiness or sadness published and the WALL STREET JOURNAL prints that LINES OF CODE WITH NO BRAIN STEM can SELF REFLECT

Just gritting my teeth and wondering yet again why no companies seem to want to build solar panels on top of buildings or over parking lots. Like, parking lots next to power plants? Grocery store lots, etc. Ooh, hey, how about over golf courses? LEAVE THE WATER ALONE! grist.org/science/what...

Spent part of this long weekend catching up on #wonderwoman courtesy of the @gameraspinning.bsky.social gifting library. This storyline has been - ooof - a bit too relatable. Hurts a little. #readingcomics #lfk

Went to a costumed picnic. Met a friendly snek.

Mr. Burton fighting the good fight.

It’s May! It’s May! The lusty month of May! That lovely month when workers protest for social justice and rights like better pay! Merry Beltane! Remember to protest and celebrate safely! #endbillionaires #fightfascism #merrymeetandmerrypartandmerrymeetagain #blessedbeltane #maydayprotest

If someone asks generative "AI" to make a picture they're not an artist. If someone asks #chatGPT (which is also NOT a search engine) to make a story they're not a writer. They are, at best, a monkey who figured out how to use a smart fridge to order a banana creme pie. #theftware

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs. (“Hard mode” no Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR)

Saw SINNERS. It was amazing. Loved it.

Went out to #labyrinthinconcert this week. Made myself a Jareth-inspired outfit. And took Tiny Pegasus along, of course. #tinypegasusadventures #lfk

Went to a Gatsby party last night. Cosplayed as Crowley. Seemed like a good place for a demon. Also, of course, there were terrified Muppet faces .

Repost with a favorite book from childhood.

Up next from the @gameraspinning.bsky.social gifting library: #thepowerfantasy by Kieron Gillen and Caspar Wijngaard, where ridiculously super-powered individuals explore the difference between being a good person and an ethical one. It’s interesting and I’m greatly enjoying the story.

I did not get out and about much at #planetcomiconkc but I did convince #AlexKingston to make crazy Muppet faces with me at the end of the show. #pckc #doctorwho #lfk

Shown here, the beginning and the end of my weekend where I worked line control for David Tennant and Alex Kingston. Tiny Pegasus for scale. #PCKC #PlanetComiconKansasCity #DoctorWho #tinypegasusadventures #maskup

Post your favorite #DoctorWho, wrong answers only.

All of the reviews would like you to know that this is a very fairy-tale gothic book. They are not wrong. It’s full of magic, death, & mer-folk. And some other monsters besides. Something to make you feel the salt in your blood. #allthemurmuringbones #agslatter #lfk #lawrencepubliclibrary

First costume make of the year. #blacklodge #twinpeaks #lfk

We all know that #Reacher ‘s real superpower is shopping. How else does a guy that size walk into gas stations and small town thrift stores and come out with perfectly tailored t-shirts, trousers, and jackets?

I downloaded a current copy of my #SocialSecurity statement today. Just, you know, for reasons.
