Chat, I used to be in cupcakes. Chocolate and vanilla. Then, one day a coworker told me she’d started her MLIS at Rutgers and that I might like it. Well, I sat there and I said, “hell I’m in the wrong business!” Four years later, I was a librarian.

"What if one of YOUR favorite politicians/celebrities/etc is on the list?" Did you all not notice how quickly we dropped Neil Gaiman when we found out about the things he did? Do you know how beloved that guy used to be and how loathed he is now? I think that right there should answer your question.

performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!
tell me about a book that changed you
for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

The Blues Brothers: antiracist, antifascist, ACAB, great soundtrack. Aged better than virtually every other 80s comedy.
What movie do you think is a lot deeper than it is typically given credit for being?

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.
