Libraries are so important for ALL children to have access to. Yet Lambeth council are about to cut £1M from the budgets of the libraries in their borough. We need your help to STOP this. I wrote an open letter to the council to try and get them to see the error of their decision. Please repost.

Might get this framed. Yes I am 40 in a month lmao.

Going through old stuff and I found this poster. Def ripped from the venue wall 😂

Clicked on one ‘couple in late 20s/early 30s bought a new build and started an insta about ‘the journey’ they are on’ account and now that is all I am being suggested to follow now lmao

Foot sadly too busted to do any real gardening but loved sitting out in the sun today.

Here we are - a DIYzines feed! Currently you just need to add DIYzines or DIYzine to your post to be included, but very open to feedback and suggestions. Might switch it to an opt-in feed if that's better? Zine folk / zinesters please let me know bsky.app/profile/did:...

Thursday night in Brighton

Come hang out with me, @uclspeccoll.bsky.social and @sladeschoolucl.bsky.social as our first ever Small Press in Residence. £5,000 to spend flexibly, access to collections, and some super facilities: blogs.ucl.ac.uk/special-coll...

Fully aware Mark Pawson wanted his work to be out and about in the world rather than stuck behind glass, but I decided to put together a display of his works that we have in the Library. Such great stuff.

We have many of these at work and they are very lovely things.

Week two of tendonitis in my foot and my weekend of resting it completely undone by one day back at work. Fed up of this shit. Also hard to take time off when so much is booked in & I hate I am saying that because it’s v martyr and not something I’d ever advise anyone else to do

Great British Menu and one of the chefs has done a Julian of Norwich inspired course, based around potatoes

Very sad news. Can’t think of many zine fairs I’ve been to over the last 20+ years where he wasn’t tabling.

People crying over VED on electric cars and even the hint of fuel tax raises and once again the humble rail user gets rat fucked www.theguardian.com/money/2025/m...

Don’t fail us now, Boeing.

Enjoying the man with a business at the back, party at the front bowl cut on Great British Menu. Would be absolutely against my monk hair principles but respect his choice.

IT install a VPN, it tanks the logic board of my near new MacBook. VPN off, a year of no issues. Software update brings in a VPN that I can’t turn off- guess what’s happened to my computer?!?

Having an absolute shocker of a Monday good god!

IT IS DONE! 🎉 looking forward to working in the CHARTREUSE ZONE.

Busted foot with tendonitis but I WILL finish painting this room today.

On 22 February 1943, three young Germans, members of the White Rose Society -- Hans Scholl, Sophie Scholl, and Christoph Probst -- were guillotined by the Nazis for distributing leaflets speaking out against the crimes of the Third Reich. Their bravery, and their cause, will not be forgotten.

I don't want to alarm you all, but someone has put the entire Mr Blobby VHS is up on the Internet Archive. archive.org/details/mr-b...

Legendary hater Charles Darwin

keep laughing to myself about clarivate calling their latest move 'transformative'- yes- transformative into shite!

Late to the clarivate/proquest news. Really looking forward to having to learn how to use another hideous clunky and dated UI to order books for the library 👍🏻

I always forget how good the ISCA (International Society of Copier Artists) boxes are.

More special collections stuff this afternoon, thinking about exhibitions, distributions and networks in artists’ publishing

Artists’ book session this morning with some of my favourite publications

LONG DAY
