Already dreading drinking the colonoscopy prep concoction again. I asked about the pills and lots of water option and the hospital said no. But I guess it's marginally better than dying.

That's a lower figure than I'd guess. I've known a lot of librarians who simply don't consider it self-censorship if they are the one involved. "Censorship" is a thick concept with description and value judgment. If you feel justified, suddenly it's not censorship. iep.utm.edu/thick-co/

I'm over here confusing people by setting up several different methods of union communication instead of the usual no methods. What drove me to join the union? Mad about lack of communication. Fixing it.

A genuine tip I have is to get comfortable with being in open disagreement with people you respect, so you're less vulnerable to peer pressure like this when it matters so much for others.

I thoroughly enjoyed THE LAST OF US season 2, but some incel dipshits who didn't play the games as much as I did are complaining...so maybe it's bad? (lol)

As matter of fact I am trying to brute force a word puzzle in a video game with a Python script. In my defense, the protagonist has access to computers and could in theory do this.

Teen at the library: Can I ask you...something big? Me: You can ask. Teen: Will you subscribe to my YouTube channel?

The Blue Prince is a video game example of "neat idea; absolutely amazing implementation." It doesn't need to go a quarter as hard to be a bestseller. And yet. The Myst / Obra Dinn spiritual successor of my dreams here.

Knitting instructions interpretation request: There are 39 stitches per row before Row 69. I understand "Knit 14 stitches. Slip sts. Just worked into a stitch holder, bind off the next 11 stitches knitwise" but then it says "work across remaining sts. in established pattern."

Nothing like "The parent of the toddler I'm knitting a bib for is coming by this evening" to make me zoom zoom on the knit purls.

Finally figured out how to fit my bike into my car! Only cut my hand once and broke off one reflector while experimenting. (I cut myself on anything. It's a talent.)

So, any other libraries have police drones deploying from their roof?

Glad once again to be approved to send out queer booklist brochures. Sad once again that they can't be full color. *no LLMs were used in the making of the brochures.

Hard to watch the City Council budget discussion when someone gets up to ask: funding for a homeless assistance obligation is being cut, so what's the plan for meeting that obligation...and the people responsible for knowing say they don't know. Almost everyone shrugs and moves forward to finish.

I feel like ALAN WAKE and I SAW THE TV GLOW perfectly split TWIN PEAKS into body (ALAN WAKE) and soul (I SAW THE TV GLOW).

I learned the word "rasher" yesterday and wow is it a fun one to say.

One of the first rooms in The Blue Prince suggested I take physical notes as I play the game. You don't know how MUCH I've wanted to play a game that benefits from note taking again! And the game style reminds me of Déjà Vu era first person room puzzle adventures. So excited!

Our union contract says we can have a witness any time a manager criticizes us. Seems like NO ONE knew, but I made sure all the workers know today. popcorn

Just saw I SAW THE TV GLOW and I didn't think a movie was allowed to do any of that.

What's so unacceptable about seeing people sleeping sitting up in a public library? Is it just a socially acceptable way to cut down on homeless people being in sight?

Look I don't think THE LAST OF US is a flawless adaptation. After all, Abby on the show is much more thin and pretty, which is less hot than the game character. :( (But the show actress is doing a fantastic job anyway!)

Ranting that we're paying an extra $500 a month mortgage because the lender is estimating our annual property tax bill to be twice what it is. Only way to adjust is to get the assessor office to print an estimate on letterhead and they refuse to do that. So I'm stuck waiting on annual bill.
