Nobody has, will, or can read even 1% of the greatest literature ever written. Every canon is incomplete, every library is only a fragment, even the most knowledgeable reader is a blind mouse in an open field. Every encounter is a miracle.
Tell me your most life-affirming literary opinion.

White people who have spent decades thinking “Born in the USA” is patriotic and “Every Breath You Take” is a great wedding song are suddenly very concerned about not being able to understand lyrics to some songs at the Super Bowl halftime show.

I’m not saying I’m SUPER tough, but I just thought I’d brag a little that I survived the Tilden carousel ride with only a four-inch gash on my leg (you should see the painted pony!).

Hey, as a librarian I have to tell you

You don't have to finish a book that doesn't interest you. Life's too short for that. Not your jam? You have my permission to move on to the next book.

One important reason the #Superman movie is so good is that there are so many good vibes associated with its creation.

23andMe declared bankruptcy and the company is gonna be sold off for parts. That includes your DNA information and the only amount of control you have is to delete your info immediately. It’s very simple to do.
