I make weird little #zines about the things that make me happy: NYC, archives, libraries, kdramas, surviving office culture, history, STEM, internet cats, bob's burgers, etc.

is it weird that I wrote a #zine about the 1919 Boston molasses flood? maybe so, but I'd say the molasses flood itself was much weirder....

has anyone tried this method to keep their plants watered while unattended for a few days?

I know they are cursed in so many ways, but sometimes all my #archivist brain wants to do is write a few LibGuides to take the edge off.

Had a dream last night that I met up w/ Bang Chan & Felix from #StrayKids and strolled around a mall for a couple of hours. We had a super chill hang out where no one recognized them & got all fan-excited.

Considering I don't own any Stray Kids albums, this is a weird choice for my brain...

I loved seeing all the cool zinesters in person at the 2024 @zinelibraries.bsky.social unconference, but damn if I wasn't inspired and productive during 2025's remote-only sessions! #ZLuC2025

why yes, major online retailer, I WOULD love your suggestions on similar novelty food pillows because searching for them does in fact provide me with some excellent, free online window-shopping dopamine

its been real slow over at the #zine shipping depot (aka my office desk and craft cart) lately - why not pick up something nice for yourself or someone you think is cool?

Here's a Richard Scarry illustration I found on the internet for motivation!

soooo, what was first meant to be a #zine celebration of all things #BobsBurgers turned into an admission that most of my favorite characters are voiced by the same person.

I dislike how my brain immediately read this listserv job listing email in a smarmy car salesmen voice:
The [redacted] is hiring an Automation & Integration Librarian, and if you’ve ever wanted to help build the future of how libraries actually work, this is it. We’re talking next-level technical services—where automation meets imagination, where metadata meets AI, and where experimentation is not only allowed but expected.

Whether you’re a librarian, technologist, project manager, or just someone who gets fired up about making things work better, we want to hear from you. Don’t wait for someone else to shape the future of library tech. Apply now and help us invent it

I'm getting more and more of these kinds of job alerts and would like to say that I very much hate them with what little of my professional enthusiasm is left.
