Evil. Really, quite evil. Incessant reader. A steady supply of novels keeps me from running amok, so: yea, libraries. Dislikes quite a large swath of humanity.
I've read most of the books on @tressiemcphd.bsky.social's proposed reading list and plan to read the rest. These are excellent recommendations. In fact, @gilduran.com (author of The Nerd Reich) will be a guest on Movement Memos soon.

K.C. Clyburn, Author@kccomplainsalot.blacksky.app · yesterdaySo I'm in a pretty bad situation. I have a week to get out of where I live. No car, temporarily laid off, have to be gone in a week.

Possibly our favourite minute of a meeting ever taken: On the 19th September 1739 the following caught our eye: The Merchant Adventurers paid 2s 6d for "washing the Hall after Mr Peary had showed Lyons". Yes you've read that right. Lions! In the Hall! 🦁💩
My sister’s cat and I have a deal that every so often when I visit she sits there in the sink and I turn on the tap just a trickle. She does not otherwise address me.
Okay I like this one. One like = 1 book question.

I have classes to prep, so how about people give me a reason to talk about books, instead?

I have seen a lot of strongrooms and I have never seen another one of these. It is terrifying.
Buckinghamshire Archives@bucksarchives.bsky.social · 12h agoIs this dangerous? Yes! Is it noisy? Also yes! What happens if the motor breaks seeing as it was built in the 1960s and no one knows how to fix it? We don't know!
If you'd like something even more dangerous, our archive is so old that we don't use these fancy modern rolling stacks. Ours are attached to a motorised chain that runs the length of the room. This means sometimes they like to move by themselves just a little, enough to keep you on edge.

An #IceAge masterpiece: This small carving (4.7cm) of a water #bird was made from mammoth ivory some 40,000 years ago. It's thought to be a #diver, #cormorant, or #duck. Found in the Hohle Fels cave on the Swabian Jura. It's the oldest known representation of a bird. 🧵1/2

If I pull this off, we're going to have 3 new bug murals up in Philly this fall, all painted by women/nonbinary artists. 1 in a park, which will pair with an October event where we have a moth-themed drag performance & costume contest. 2 in neighborhoods & will come with science libraries.
Not sure if everyone appreciates the difference. Rooftop solar hardwires into your main panel via a dedicated breaker, so it requires a permit, an installer, an electrician, and a utility agreement. Balcony solar just plugs into a wall outlet, sharing an existing circuit with no permits or rewiring.

Non-universal sizing (every brand has a different idea of what a numerical size stands for in measurements! It can change radically even between their own styles, much less another brand's style!) is a curse and a conspiracy against women.
Bay Area friends: would you consider opening your home to these two cuddly cats? A friend found them behind a gas station. Their sibling, a black cat, got adopted, but it appears no one likes orange cats. They are being kept in a bathroom for the time being and need a home.
derek guy@dieworkwear.bsky.social · 4w agoA friend of mine found these three kittens behind a Bay Area gas station. They are tame, vaccinated, and incredibly affectionate. Unfortunately, she's unable to keep them and I'm trying to find them a home. They are at risk of going to a shelter. Bay Area people, are you open to adopting?
