Finally made the jump here, so an introduction is in order.

I'm a queer illustrator and library science major from Mexico, currently working on my undergrad dissertation on cataloging ethics. I'm a leftist and believer in the good inherent to humanity.

Nice to meet y'all.

As we write, DOGE is reportedly inside the gates of the IMLS (Institute for Museum and Library Services), where Keith Sonderling, Deputy Secretary of Labor and “somehow now Acting Director” of IMLS is dismantling the agency that helps libraries be libraries. /1

Today I get to make an exciting announcement! After years of work, San Francisco Public Library's alternative headings are now live. This list represents hundreds of hours of work and I'm proud of what we've done. Here is the list if your library would like to use it: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Costuming a character in a bright color contrasting from those in desaturated colors around them is an efficient way to indicate the hero of the story

just blurted out in class "yes, you have to cite where you got your info. in a world in which lying loudly is the only thing that seems to get rewarded, citing your sources is an act of resistance" and folks, I really believe that.

Libraries will not save you!

BUT

They can provide you with books and other materials and a safe space wherein you can learn how to save yourself and others!

Have you paid attention to all the controversy of "Microsoft Recall", which records your screen and uses AI to flag certain things? Proctorio is doing that to 5 million students per week, and nobody is doing anything about it. How can we stand up for students? They are asking for help!

We've agreed that this will henceforth be known in popular discourse and technical literature as the Magic Carpet fallacy. It needs a name on an emergency basis because of the growing threat this specific fallacy poses in American political discourse.
