I paused reading “This Princess Kills Monsters” to follow @ryherman.bsky.social on BlueSky. Thoroughly delighted to be able to search for one of my new favorite authors without being forced to feed AI like on other socials.

It’s a good night to read a good book. The talking lion told me so.

Just got hit with one of his ridiculous tariffs purchasing replacement parts for my mobility aid that I use daily. 2028 can’t come soon enough. (And, while I’m generally a hopeful person, no, I’m not hopeful we’ll be saved any sooner than that.) #disability

I know you, Chicago — and I know you’re up to the difficult time we have ahead, thanks to this President.

For the first time tonight, I felt the frustration of my kindle going to sleep while I was in the middle of copying down and decoding binary. That probably that says a lot about me as a person. @barbaratruelove.bsky.social #OfMonstersAndMainframes

One really should have the ability to hide people who are eating while on a Teams meeting. Pinning them for everyone in order to bring attention to the infraction seems extreme and wrong but I’m almost there. This is painful.

I believe I’ll be posting more later, but here’s the thing. You just don’t mess with library people.

Somebody’s about to learn one of my wife’s favorite lessons: You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.

Rise up. #ForOurLibraries
🚨NEW🚨: Donald Trump is attempting to strip away federal support for libraries. We will NOT let that happen.

Last night the President signed an order to gut the Institute of Museum & Library Services. But together, we know we can show up & defeat it.

Life lesson for the morning: If you rearrange things on your desk without fear of consequence, your sharpie will end up in your coffee instead of the pencil cup.

“Without reconciliation, there can be no collective healing. Without collective healing, there is only more wounding guised under progress. Progressive wounding is not an ethical future.”

I’m working on purposefully #FindingJoy where I can. Currently working from home, looking out the kitchen window and seeing sunshine, listening to Hanson | String Theory, and remembering finally seeing them live with my wife some years back.
