The Library Faery
@libraryfaery.bsky.social
Library cryptid disguised as a Director. historian, textile artist, craft dabbler. Go read a book - you really need to do so. Read a lot of books - learn something outside of your confirmation bias. The crows demand it. And go outside.
Holy hells. Not one school, but two decided this was a good thing to do. Where are the adults who supervise these teams? Are people this out of touch with things? I know it's been 25 years, but what? What's next for state competition - Holocaust reenactment?

Saw a small squirrel today that looks like a mix between a black and regular squirrel; not the ears of a black squirrel. It had a white tip to it's tail.
Ciri, our Child Suprise chicken who adopted us last October, has gifted us with a child surprise of her own. We didn't even know she had an egg, she's been broody so long. That's a Leghorn baby; apparently when she was out of her box, a Leggie laid up there. Now, how to keep them safe is next.
Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, Marvel, Disney, or Ghibli.

Score - brand new jeans for what I would have paid for them in 1995. Yes, I bought five pairs - It's not like I won't use them up.
Started harvesting the elderberry. How's that for a huge one? First batch yielded 5 cups of berries. Tons more on that one bush alone.
What in the everloving hells. Buy books, keep them safe. Buy OLDER books, keep them safe. www.yahoo.com/news/science...
AI Companies Are Still Buying Up Old Books by the Pallet – Then Shredding Them
AI companies are bulk-buying used books, scanning them, then destroying the originals to build clean training datasets - and a court ruling made it legal.

Gosh, I'm tired of society in general. Individuals are still good, but I'm back in retreat from society in general mode.
At our municipal grocery stores, New Yorkers will get a 30% discount on eggs, milk, chicken, produce and other everyday essentials. In the wealthiest city in the richest country in the world, no one should have to wonder how they’ll afford the food they need to feed themselves or their families.

Trump Administration Admits Canceling Grants to States That Did Not Vote for Him

Friend of mine just said "Before the current president was in office, my truck could only hold $32 worth of gas, now it holds $59! Amazing!" Yes, this IS sarcasm.

Book du Jour: There's romance, it's semi spicy (you can have a love story without sex you know) but the writing, the characters make up for that, for those of us who prefer the story line. Anything more I say would just spoil it, but I read a lot of it out loud to spouse - that good. #booksky 📕💙
My room temp and correct take on tipping is that if you make a comfortable living you tip servers always and you tip them well because who the fuck do you think you are
For those upset about kids in the grocery store. I think I need a kazoo. Be happy I don't fly often.
There's a chicken staring on my window at me. He's on the laundry porch table - again.
And currently, there's ONE leftover in my fridge, which my husband will eat for lunch today - unless you consider the hardboiled eggs I made last week for myself and the dogs to be leftovers - and they will go for my lunch. And one waste- some of that toxic salad mix I won't compost.
"Only 48%"- you mean basically half. "Most Americans, up to 33%"- so 1/3 of people. "63% of people do it" - so 2/3rds. These examples are use of how stats are being used to condemn an event common to most families - parents shopping with their children. And how if you are not simultaneously
Do you find this to be true? Sometimes, I do. Choices made, people gone, changing times.
I leave you all with some lovely Zinnias Daughter is growing along our shared driveway. Don't know the kind - they came in a seed strip from Park Seeds.
Book I just started, and it appears to be good; the first page catcher for me: "Pax Nomen would rather eat dragon shit than run a meeting, but he did have a sense for danger and this crowd was already bubbling with tension and Magic." Magic and Mischief At the Wayside Hotel - Elisabeth Everett 📕💙
Microscale world - I am frustrated that I cannot work outside, the sun and antibiotics. I cannot move about the things I need to move, inside and out - antibiotics and the possibility of tendon damage due to them. Arg.
