All the books and movies about AI waging war on and trying to destroy humanity are right about a lot of things except that the malign intelligence running the AIs is not robotic it is human

The problem with young people today actually lies with older people who believe that any number of things now are just as easy to do with a low paycheck as they were back before prices rose & salaries stagnated. Purchasing an occasional treat is not to blame for people's finances being in freefall!

Hey library folk libraries are often the first place people go to find out where they can get help. With the SNAP suspension looming creating a list of local food pantries and other organizations that may be able to assist is one way we can help out vulnerable patrons! This is one I made: 📚📜

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings: Look I am trying to get hold of Ea-nāṣir My works are dependent on the copper he promised I am getting mighty despairing at the delay!

I know how it feels to think nothing we do will help, not all of us can run food pantries or organize in our communities; but if we are able we can donate food and/or direct people in need to resources they may not know about. If we work with our strengths & pull together we can support each other!

After centuries of terrorizing communities in Transylvania and around the world, Count Dracula retired and embarked on a second career telling stories at open mic nights as Vlad the Regaler

I made a resource list for people served by my library that may be affected by the SNAP benefit suspension:

There is a power fantasy that sees soldiers purely as 'hard men' that do the work that effete folks cannot do, completely overlooking the war poets and artists of the Great and Second World Wars that did what was asked of them and then wrote about or painted it as a way to cope with the horror

Thinking of making a booklist of classic Sci-Fi and Fantasy novels that right-wing tech bros have read without understanding the lessons contained therein and then gone on to create torment nexi
