I sometimes wonder if there are invisible fairies flying around me every day, moving stuff around. Because I could have sworn to you that I put both my Bluetooth headphones and my laptop charger in my backpack before I left my house. Neither are there now I've gotten to the library. Hmm...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Today's library tip from your librarian
Most libraries have the capacity to scan documents and pictures, as well as print. Public computers, free WiFi.
Some libraries have 3D printers, some have MakerSpaces with more (laser cutters, sound booths, etc)
