Youth services librarian. Union President. Secular humanist. Willing accomplice to anyone dismantling systems of oppression.
Yesterday, a guy came in to renew his #library card so he could check out books on homesteading. As we get to the section, he tells me, "The country is run by unelected lunatic technocrats & my family decided to go full-on hippy commune in response."
Faith in humanity: slightly restored.

Our #library has one of those bead-track cube toys that has been here for 15+ years. Today, a child no older than 7 came in, sat at the activity cube, & gleefully declared, "I feel like a little kid again!" as she pushed the beads along the loopy wire.
I ❤️ when we're part of their happy memories.

Lessons you only have to learn once as a #library employee: you must open every bathroom stall to check that they're empty at closing. Looking for feet under the doors isn't enough when temperatures are freezing & you live in a place that thinks cold weather shelters are for communists. *heavy sigh*

Going on the record to say I'd feel 1,000,000x safer sharing space with trans women than with anyone wearing a red MAGA hat. Believe it or not, I can't tell who was born with which chromosomes just by looking at them AND NEITHER CAN ANYONE ELSE.

In America, we're supposed to punch n@zis, not salute them at inauguration.

Look at my cat.
His name is Douglas. He's a very soft kitty.

That's it. That's the post.

Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

And we honor the longstanding bond between the labor and the civil rights movement, and vow to channel our strength and energy into action to build worker power and fight for working people.

Shoutout to all our emotional support animals who will be working overtime for the foreseeable future. Thank you for your fluffy services, soldiers!

Hello, new app that isn't owned by Meta! I have no idea what I'm doing yet, but at least Zuck & our corrupt US senators don't get to profit off my attempts to connect with others. #ByeByeZuck #DownWithTheOligarchy
