I used to handle interlibrary loans for a public library. ILL is a magnificent expression of the idea that readers deserve books, and books deserve readers. It’s libraries everywhere pooling their resources for the benefit of everyone.

Killing IMLS could have killed ILL.

This is great news. 📚

If your kids find out that all it would have taken for them to transition early was for you to have broken the rules, and they find out you didn't do that, they will never forgive you.
reminder to parents of trans children:

breaking the rules to save your child years of suffering and possibly their life is your moral duty, get them on the correct hormones no matter what and don't bother with "doing things the right way"
And let's not even get started on the absurdity of looking for a positive impact from a preventative measure, where the expected outcome is "not getting worse"

Puberty blockers had no measurable impact on divorce rates, therefore ineffective treatment.

So, I'm really kind of fucking annoyed and disappointed with Mozilla enabling AI in Firefox by default and not giving users a simple opt out switch.

I have disabled it in my firefox via 'about:config' , if you want to too, here's how to disable it completely or enable certain bits you find useful

Lyudmila, the six-length maiden winner at Laurel yesterday, is out of Lucrezia. Lucrezia, in turn, is out of Verdana Bold.

as in...the dam of Copperplate, and the reason why one of the tattoos on my left arm is in the font Verdana Bold.

I think if Linda's gonna talk shit it had better be in the ring and now I wanna see a bunch of teachers and nurses 619 her
The Department of Education, led by the wife of a former head of the WWE, has declared nursing to no longer be a professional degree.

It’s a war on so called women dominated professions

It’s also devastating for the disability community

We need nurses

They’re an invaluable part of the care team

Seeing this Salvation Army ad reminds me:

PLEASE REMEMBER THIS HOLIDAY SEASON, THE SALVATION ARMY IS AN ANTI-LGBTQIA+ HATE GROUP. DO NOT GIVE THEM A FUCKING DIME.

it's giving Caroline Calloway, in that the really good book about it would have to be written by somebody else because neither of them realize they're the villain
one more damning thing about olivia nuzzi: there was clearly an interesting if mortally embarrassing book in her life story and instead she delivered horrible slop

NEWSFLASH DUMBASS, LEAVES IS PLANTS 🍁
“hey hangman you promised us pics of plants, this is just a bunch of leaves what gives?” newsflash dumbass, leaves IS plants. leaves provide winter shelter for insects like lightning bugs and butterflies, fertilize the soil, and are a pain in the ass to move anyway so just leave them where you can

"The winter is long.

We'll spend it getting ready.

Chicago is a boxer. We rest, and we wipe the blood from our one good eye and we stand, yet again. There's always another round."
It’s being reported that Greg Bovino and 250 of his goons will be leaving Chicago. But it’s also being reported that he’ll be back, in larger numbers. But Chicago is a boxer, tired but unbowed. I wrote about how we’ll be ready. dansinker.com/posts/202…
