Libraries purchase books. When you see a book at the library, it isn’t “free”

the library bought it.

which in turn means that the community bought it.

In other words, library books are not lost sales for authors and publishers; they’re positive sales. Active sales. Those are bought.

Get in, losers, we’re going to the Cambrian Explosion.
ZOMG LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE SHALE

Okay, so the Burgess Shale is a fossil bed in British Columbia that contains a whole bunch of fossils of weirdass creatures from the Cambrian era, over 500 million years ago. But the great thing about the shale is that it has fossilized SOFT PARTS!

y'all, liking things is SO MUCH FUN
There's a whole generation that learned irony before sincerity and now they're trapped. Can't be earnest without a layer of self-deprecation. Can't be enthusiastic without signaling awareness of how cringe enthusiasm is.

The price of never being vulnerable is never connecting.

I apologise for the lateness of this reply. I briefly thought you were mad at me and stopped being able to form sentences. It will happen again.

Kind regards, etc.

The billionaires can buy the newspapers and buy social media and buy attack ads, but they can't buy their way out of how much we fucking hate all of them.

I mean, what in the neo-liberal, solipsistic, individualist hell is this shit?

The fact that the world unfolds from our bodies does not mean that how the world unfolds for us is the sole way that it unfolds for everyone else. Like, we have different bodies, different experiences. Come the fuck on.

The next motherfucker who claims that not having an experience means that the experience itself is invalid, I will PERSONALLY escort to the gates of sto'vo'kor.

Just because you, personally, have not had the experience does not mean that it is not possible to have the experience.

It's so fucking funny that this guy dressed like an off-duty clown and pretended to use a paper map for two days to prove a point, but there's a difference between "Waze uses machine learning to predict routes and traffic patterns" and "we fed every book in the library into an event horizon"
the nyt posts this stuff like avoiding AI for 48 hours is hard and meanwhile i have literally never once intentionally used an AI program for anything ever

I know #DiNovember is approaching, but my heart is left languishing in the #Paleozoic.

The people MUST KNOW about FISH and MOLLUSKS and AMPHIBIANS and ARTHROPODS and EVERY CREATURE I HAVE NOT NAMED BUT WHO YET DESERVE YOUR TIME, RESPECT AND DELIGHT
