Book Rec thread. I wanna post some of my 5 stars on here too so I really like remember them. First up Where Wolves Don't Die by Anton Treuer. A native kid gets in a fight with a kid at school and the next day the other kid's house catches fire. His dad sends him to the Rez to stay with grandparents.

Did something to destroy my tummy the day before Thanksgiving and have not been right since right before dinner yesterday. Ruined the holiday a bit. Although the screaming that went on during the after dinner game would have gotten on my last nerve even if I was well so maybe best I was shut up.

My uncle pretends to be a jerk, but secretly cares...he cooked me breakfast, showed off his pineapple corer, and turned off fox news when I walked into the room. I am watching westerns and cross stitching without having to worry about a cat ingesting anything.

I've been banned from talking about politics because I tried to say the shutdown ending means insurance costs will go up. Trump has some magic plan to save everyone according to one aunt and the rest say we should just all get along at all times and not speak of it because it doesnt effect us. Lol k

My aunt told me to bring drinks if I want anything and I didn't think to pick up a cute non alcoholic thing. Maybe I can run to the food coop later today and et some juice! And share with the few other non drinkers.

Just a reminder that this cat needs to live in someone else's house! She's probably fine with boy cats or dogs, she just doesn't like other girl cats. I'll drive her as far as OK or AR! Or like for sure anywhere in the Texas triangle!

Hmm trying to balance how much detail to put in this endnote libguide and how much to say just look at their own documentation. Some of it is only on video format though and I know some folks refer it written out with screen shots. Hmm

Yeah our library has a tension between faculty who want browsing and students who want more study space. The only reason the students havent won is the uni fakes being poor when we ask for money to remodel or build a better repository lol. And well after this year funding might actually be limited.

Yeah it is very area specific. As someone who doesnt drive in a Michigan city with decent transit that does not connect a lot to nearby counties I just dont see family anymore because they are beyond public transit reach. It also takes over twice as long on transit as by Lyft a lot of the time.

People have a million excuses for pirating books, and I'm so tired of all of them. If you're in the US, you have access to most books through a library, SOMEHOW. If you're outside the US, it's trickier, but there are so many other books to read! Don't pirate when many authors are barely scraping by.

Fuck yall. I need to pack. I conveniently blocked that part of the holidays out. I also need to wash the litter box before pet sitter has to deal with it. I can bang that out tomorrow before or after work and kinda pack as I work.

I successfully made butternut squash soup today. Cutting up the squash was a pain, but other than that it was easy peasy and quick. Took me a second to figure out the immersion blender too, but i got it. Now I have two portions freezing in souper cubes and one in the fridge for tomorrow.

I should have listened to romancelandia about Sierra Simone. I was eh on most of the blurbs, so passed on then for a while. But I ended up starting one yesterday and I am already done. It was very addictive. On the waitlist for book 2 now.

Sorry if I contributed to a needless panic. On the other hand, nothing Google or any other tech company has done recently has given me any reason to trust them or believe they are operating in good faith ๐คทโโ๏ธ

I wanted a blow off class my senior year and signed out to be a library assistant for an hour. I liked it alright so I got a job in my university library my sophomore year. I liked that too and didn't know what else to do so I went to grad school here and never fucking left.

Awww went to the hands on museum with two couples, 1 other adult friend and a 2 and 4 year old. It was so cute!! I'm not great with kids but some place like that makes it easier. They had fun for two hours before flagging. Then we grabbed lunch and it was just so nice. Glad I thought of it.

My cat is such a drama queen. My roommate put a harness on him to see if we could take him outside sometime and he refused to stand up with it on. He just flopped over every time we tried to set him on his feet and was like pushing himself around on his tummy.

everyone correctly noting that any time you put Trump in a room with someone charismatic he becomes extremely complimentary until someone reminds him he hates that person, take a bow heโll be posting unhinged shit about Zohran again by tomorrow

Friend pointed out the drive might be too long for aunt/uncle now and thats why I dont see them anymore. That is fair. Too bad I was too depressed to do anything last summer when my roommate was willing to teach me. Wish my psychs had listened sooner to my requests to try something besides meds.

Ooh I realized during therapy I was more excited talking about stuff than any time in the recent past. From wheel of time, to the concert, to watching frankenstein and old eddie Murphy movies. Hell even work/cat related things. Is the tms...finally working? ๐ค๐ง๐ฎ๐ซข

Hmm it just hit me many of the villainous men in the wheel of time show are dark skinned black men(Ishamael being the big exception). Seems like a racism. But most of the villainous women are white. A lot of white women being secretly evil...yeah that tracks.

Oh guess if I want Thanksgiving food im gonna have to cook it at home by myself this year. I might be able to see family, I cant really tell. Would probably have to Uber out to south lyon and find a pet sitter. Idk.

Moved to the Rosamund Pike recording of the first wheel of time book last night. Holy shit she is great at audiobook narration. She totally brings the story to life. I am gonna be sad when I have to swap back to the original narrators since she only did the first 3 books.

So now you have to either allow them to use all your data or you can't have basic spell/grammar check? This is bullshit. Do you know how many times I would have emailed "open shit" without spell check being like you sure about that??

While yes they are being ignorant and dumb. There is a different arabic numeral set in arabic. I memorized it to do scan checks when I worked in our digitization lab. And it was different enough when the scanner missed pages I had to go flip to them for her cuz she didn't understand my notes.

Hmm decided after Thanksgiving your girl is doing lots of soups and freezing the shit out of them. Chicken soup, chili, and butternut squash are gonna be my first attempts. The last is because my dumb ass just realized my roommate bought an immersion blender 2 years ago and I must try it.

Last year H&R block updated something to make it unusable and I had to switch to somewhere else. Luckily it wasnt TurboTax or I would have to switch again. Dems please get your heads out of your asses and win elections so I can do this shit more easily.

Woke up with terrible indigestion and tummy cramps. That Mexican place is a big NO in future and the food was shitty anyways. Kinda good I woke up though since I forgot to feed the cat dry food and he refused his wet food waiting for it. He would have def made himself sick waiting til morning.
