@profgalloway.com not generally your biggest fan but your rant on @pivotpod.bsky.social on how tech CEOs need to grow a spine and stand up to Trump was excellent and much needed. Thank you.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok? Signed, a librarian.

Our leaders fight us for every square inch of bike lane but everywhere you look you can find millions in taxpayer dollars wasted on car travel, the most expensive, inefficient and dangerous form of travel in cities.

Since Twitter is now X and it has stupid new names for posts etc over there, can we take back the word “tweets” for the posts we make here on BlueSky? I think so. This is a tweet, now. Screw you, X, you had a great platform before you blew it. This is ours now.
