I rarely talk about work on my personal socials, but.
My employer has climbed in the sack with LinkedIn Learning. The site won't give me credit for their mandatory course unless I link my personal profile.

Johnny Cash all the way.
As I wake to the 81st day of the Fall of the American Empire, the question I contemplate:
Which version of "Hurt" is more appropriate as a soundtrack to the decline? The Johnny Cash cover, or the Nine Inch Nails original? 🤔

ALA is deeply concerned by reports that IMLS is sending notices to libraries claiming to cancel grants that are required by law. This harmful action will disrupt libraries' ability to serve their communities.

The one day a week I get off to do something fun, it rains.
I finally have the means to travel, and planes fall out of the sky.
I approach retirement, and old age benefits disappear.
Not Boomer.
Not Gen X.
Just cursed.
2025, go f**k yourself.

It's too bad most people don't understand this.
It's the nature of humanity to error, to mistake, to succumb to illusion. That's why we must always check our views against reality as directly as possible, always test our understanding, always remain eager for correction and knowledge. That's how we become smarter--not by guarding our pride.
