you ever think about how the 90s x men cartoon had a more memorable orchestrated theme than any live action superhero movie that came after it
Gods I hope this actually makes sense 😑
Whoops I've written 1500 words on harm minimisation in libraries and I'm not finished 😮
When you find someone with the exact same problem you have and their solution was to rebuild their server 😑 #neverupgrade

@alissa Cataloging question: subject tags - ranked order or alphabetical? Is there a need anymore for ranked order? Do clients even know why they are in ranked listing?
I listened to a speech from someone receiving an honorary doctorate tonight that basically equated to "old man yells at cloud (social media/the internet)". He warned us several times that the bird site wasn't a good source, but never once mentioned how print materials could also be biased or factually incorrect 🙄
I got to cast 'As per my last email' today and honestly, it felt good. #passiveagressive
The new library space I developed for my library has been a huge success. It took 3 years to get finished but well worth it. The space is packed and always in use, and I've had zero complaints about it 👏🏼👏🏼
