There is a point in pretty much every Reacher book where Reacher kicks in somebody's knee and I'm not saying he should do that to some politicians... but I'm not saying he shouldn't do that.

I need someone to come up with an estimated number of how many jobs have been lost across departments, because all I heard from people leading up to the election was that Donald Trump cared about protecting American jobs.

My new favorite thing is to leave a comment on political and/or religious Facebook posts and then turn off the notifications for that post so I never see it again. I've said what I needed to say, argue with yourself about it. It makes me feel a tiny bit better.

the thing they don't understand about forcibly taking over cultural institutions is that it will not make people love them or their sad excuse for a culture the actual creators will simply take their talents elsewhere and the institutions will crumble behind them

Tried to find the clip from The Great Escape where Ramsey explains that it's every officer's duty to attempt to escape, harass, and waste as much enemy time/attention/resources as possible. Couldn't find it. :( But I watched some other clips and dang, Charles Bronson was hot as heck in that movie.

I knew my student loans were already forgiven because Christ has paid it all for me by his blood, but it was nice for Trump to decide theres no part of the government collecting student loans anymore.

Our system is very good about this too! At the time I was out of patron purchase suggestions and staff purchase suggestions, and I just didn't want to wait. 😂🤷

Since we're taking about libraries today, friendly reminder that if you want to read a book that our system doesn't own, we'll do our darnedest to get it somewhere else. This book I'm reading right now is from a small college library in Michigan.

The NIH stuff seems to be breaking through with Republican friends and family a bit largely because Birmingham's university hospital is a huge local employer and Auburn is an R1 research institute.

Public libraries! Some of them even have cafés now although the beauty of libraries is that you don't have to buy anything to exist there. (But yeah, hours may vary. We're fortunate to have some branches open until 8 or 9 in our system.)

Listen, we were all young and stupid once. You can’t judge someone for the thoughtless and provocative posts they made all the way back in September and December of 2024. It was a different time back then.

Once again, way too many people appear to have forgotten that the reason strikes and labour laws exist is not because workers need to be coddled but because they were the less messy alternative to the factory owner getting burnt alive inside his home by the workers

I personally cannot understand this at all, but I do have a lot of Republican friends and family who absolutely cannot/will not extrapolate from people they personally know to a wider community. It's weird.
