Abolish ICE. Invest in communities.

This "cops need so much training to learn to not murder" rhetoric serves the agenda of the people who want to put cop city training facilities in every large municipality. Just sayin'

OK! You have convinced me! Here goes... I am positive that LLMs and AI are completely terrible and are positively bad for the creative and all other spheres!

As I have stated here before: I don't have "rights" over my children; I have a responsibility to love, care, and support the people they are and the people they will grow into.

Good library news in the Ocean State 📚

Doing our library’s Tech Help Drop-in again, and just helped an 83 year-old learn how to arrange apps on her iPhone and she was so appreciative and couldn't believe she didn’t have to pay. 🥹😭

Why do we shame ourselves for our TBR piles? It's not our fault that we're denied the time to partake in humanity's greatest privilege. Isn't it wonderful that brilliant minds keep crafting delightful stories? Your TBR is a beautiful never-ending goal. May we all be gifted the time to attempt it.

Brief moment of confidence and trust in myself as I showered this morning. I wish I could hold on to that feeling and live fully in it. Ah, healing 😭

Never Forget #Jan6

For all that the media has spent years freaking out about what social media does to our brains, I don’t understand why there appears to be little effort to grapple with the fact that these chatbots are, for some not insignificant portion of the population, literally psychosis machines

Please read the whole article. There are some fascinating data in here!

I hate this. It’s a piece of clothing. What’s next, regulation on corsets and shape-wear that makes your butt look bigger? Leave me and my binders in peace you fucking weirdos.

Also, the number of these people who think late book returners are some sort of malicious evil mastermind people trying to screw other is also INSANE.

You can be a punk library or a cop library; you can care about the people or the stuff. Choose the people. 📚

Stop with statements. ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT

goodnight, and remember: library late fees suck. they simply discourage library use. you should be glad if your library abolished them, and if it hasn’t, you should tell them it should. 📚

Grok can't apologize. Grok can, when prompted, generate a word sequence that is statistically similar to the colloquial phrases we think of as "apologies," but Grok cannot actually apologize because Grok isn't sentient. But we all have a lot of trouble with this because we assume sentience IS speech

It's that time of year when we look back at all the books we loved in 2025. First up, is Host Emily with just some of her favorites from the year. Did you read any of her top books? Let us know what you loved (or hated) in the comments!

So happy to write this, and grateful to Pop Heist for caring about libraries. Support your local libraries and library workers, y’all! 📚

Hear hear! If you haven't read Woodworking yet, it was hands down my favorite book of 2025. Got me feeling all the feelings.

On it! I’ll start using it at work overmorrow, I promise!
