We should all be so lucky to be memorialized like librarian Robert Resnik. May his memory be a blessing. www.sevendaysvt.com/arts-culture...

lol Katy’s response “read a girl’s resume”

People think poetry isn't relevant. Though it may seem to be waning in influence, its gravity is inescapable. For example, take this small portion of a longer 1987 book length serial poem "Catenary Odes" which proves that the American L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E poet Ted Pearson invented the concept of gooning.

Reading about this luxury apartment building that's falling apart after only ten years because the developer wanted a pure white building, a color only achieved by weakening the concrete. LOL what a fucking living metaphor.

This image needs to be in every mainstream news outlet It’s why I spend so much of my advocacy on ICE & the militarization of US cities It’s a disability justice issue They’re literally targeting disabled people because we’re easy marks ICE will disable more people with their vicious attacks.

The University of Virginia has capitulated to Trump on transgender and race (affirmative action) issues. The details are currently sparse, but reporting suggests they've agreed to define trans people out of existence and ban trans students from facilities. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.” Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

In case you think this is a joke

I bet that's not even Big Mouth Billy Bass. My culture is not your costume, Matt Walsh!

My favourite soft cell record is This Last Night in Sodom, and that’s because it was the first where Dave sacked off the label and did all the music himself, it’s incredible youtu.be/dpQaX4mB5qI?...

Once again, serving elected officials should have to use public transit. But tcharli, you say, that's dangerous! & how will they ever get to work on time? & how'll they do their slimy backseat dealings in transit to their hidden chambers with all those people about? They'll do it the 🇺🇸 way: Yes and.

I've a systems librarian nerd level paper here co-authored by a friend and colleague. They discuss AI bots scraping the online catalogue, bringing it down by creating thousands of complex faceted searches. AI takes and takes and does so multiple times per second journal.code4lib.org/articles/18489

We see this at Vanderbilt University, where the administration has instituted a "memory hole," and removed material the current leaders don't like from the university website's archive of previous news releases and official public statements.

nothing is wrong. there is no problem. but you can’t help but think that man outside the trolley window appears to have a lot on his mind.

Ok, smartguy. So what're we supposed to do? Find a qualified American without a history of sexual misconduct who wants to run for office but doesn't want to feed us all bit by bit to the great god Moloch AND has cool tattoos that don't have anything to do with NAZIs? You just hate to win, don't you?

The judge wrote that school libraries are “loci of intellectual freedom,” and emphasized that students must be free to “inquire, to study and to evaluate, to gain new maturity and understanding.” www.advocate.com/news/pentago...

Be gentle. I'm dealing with post show clarity, so I hate everything I've done before this very moment. Feels like having a fever dream in someone else's house where you don't know the layout, but finally manage to get to the bathroom to dry heave only to realize it's not a dream or the bathroom.

I work in a library and think that model is essential for a healthy culture of learning, teaching, & exchange. There are always limitations. Even with the seemingly endless access we have to IP, we pay to rent. I want as much access as possible to everything for everyone. But having more doesn't...

"sometimes they just didn't have the thing you wanted" is a good thing, as was generally being out in the world and talking to people and maybe grabbing something new that looks weird on the shelf because they didn't have the thing you wanted that becomes your whole personality for a year.

Whatever shit the world is doing atm, i personally can’t get myself to react to it with misanthropy. I actually really, really love humans, and I want to see us all thrive. Humans have a near infinite capacity for kindness. The problem is capitalism, colonialism and fascism; Not humanity inherently.

*wicked witch voice* grow, my titties! grow!

I think Anne rices greatest accomplishment was sneaking gay erotica into American mainstream culture in the early 90’s.

The Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art is exhibiting David Wojnarowicz's "Arthur Rimbaud in New York" until Jan. 18th. It's the photoseries which answers such timeless questions as: "What's the light like in an abandoned pier just before I let a dead poet cum in my mouth." leslielohman.org/exhibitions/...
