An important detail is that little dude delivered this while wearing a red dress that brings to mind nothing so much as Kate Bush’s Wuthering Heights music video. A true icon.

Admiral Flapjack and Professor Biscuit are my favourite names of the lot. All good cats, of course.
Walter de Staplecat, Simpkin IV, Teabag, Balthasar and Benny D Cat take the stage as we meet the college cats of Oxford. And, of course, Magdalen’s Ozymandias. Read on for our photo special. (Includes a cat map.) oxfordclarion.uk/college-cats...
College cats of Oxford
Once upon a time, we featured an image of Magdalen's kitten, Ozymandias, in our newsletter. We figured it might be a gentle contrast to our regular diet of planning and local politics.

When the kid dancers posed in front of the band, I got chills. And then *all* the dancers (kids and adults) started dancing! A celebration of joy and dance for all ages.
Okay, the crowd going nuts like someone just scored a touchdown at the Super Bowl all *through* the KDH performance is a hell of a thing to see hear/see:

A man in France is accused of drugging more than 200 women at a job interview.
He gave them a drug to make them need to urinate, and then made sure they didn’t have access to a toilet.
Many had to urinate in public or have accidents.
This is why we choose the bear.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

It's never too late to learn something new.
It's never too late to read dusty books of dark magic.
It's never too late to weave a cloak of moss, feathers, and thorns and become the horror that haunts the forest north of town.

I'm going insane because people constantly recommend using AI for things and it is always, ALWAYS worse than repeatedly bashing my head on a brick.
It's like you have an actual problem & all anyone recommends is "have you tried talking to my cousin? He drinks bleach & doesn't wash his pants"

Two things that I think would be beneficial to track in our current library attacks/book censorship era that I do not have capacity to do and suspect others who've been doing this for years don't, either.
1. Canadian library budget cuts. There are a LOT.
2. Libraries banning ALA membership.
