Hoping that @molly.wiki can help explain.

Our realtor would. not. stop. trying to sell us houses that were 50-100K above our budget bc "the guest house/suite would let you airbnb it," as though I (bc let's face it, she didn't expect my husband to do this labor) didnt' have a full time job that I could just put on hold to service an airbnb.

Special mention to Contemporary Lit lead curator Helen Melody, who helped me access uncatalogued materials during the rebuild! But honestly, across the board the @britishlibrary.bsky.social staff are stellar and anyhow, ALL workers deserve a liveable wage!
