Carry on, then :) Is it weird that the first thought that came to mind about this was maybe library bike lending can help out the people who've had bikes stolen while at libraries?

Jen the Feisty Librarian @feistywaters.com · 7h

I don't think I ever made that claim, anyway :) Bike lending a cool idea.

Is there a way for local woman to profit from that while never having to speak, write or think about crypto or bitcoin stuff ever again?

Was it too early in the morning for sarcasm? Because oats are the only part of this post that local woman endorses.

Local woman wakes up, invents a crypto bitcoin AI NFT Nexopia oat currency so powerful that it saves the economy and then the world, makes oatmeal.

I love that.

If I lived there, I’d 100% go visit regularly. Did it start off as an address that kids could send mail to the muppets?

Thanks! It’s a Svaha dress (I did not make it).

Jen the Feisty Librarian @feistywaters.com · 19h

Thanks! From Svaha.

All credit to my twitter friend Beth who randomly sent a message in July asking if I'd like a Sesame Street dress and I said yes please.

Because Saturday.

Well do work in a public library, was a children’s librarian for a bunch of years and now work with people of all ages :)

Jen the Feisty Librarian @feistywaters.com · 21h

Well then we need the dress even more now.

Jen the Feisty Librarian @feistywaters.com · 21h

That was my photographer husband’s idea :)

I made it up in 2022 but am happy that people have embraced the phrase :)

Came up with it in 2022 during the freedom convoy in Ottawa, but have found it to apply more widely since then :) There’s a sticker (and tshirt) for it too. www.feistywaters.com/merch/p/whis...

Whiskey Soaked Sticker — Feisty Waters

Coined as an expression of discontent in January 2022, this has since become an evergreen expression for so many ridiculous current events. Stickers are $4 (includes shipping).

It’s possible. But the officials who’ve decided to call it a terrorist org do know and are using that to justify violence against those resisting fascism.

Nice! Beth (who made the dress) found the vintage sheets, sent me a message and said “hey do you want a Sesame Street dress?”.

Jen the Feisty Librarian @feistywaters.com · 1d

I don’t, but did 100 feisty dresses in 2019 where I wore a different dress for 100 days in a row, if that counts :)

Jen the Feisty Librarian @feistywaters.com · 1d

Thank you but also after 20 years working in public libraries, I gotta tell you that they aren’t all feisty and some of them are problematic in a variety of ways. But many are feisty.
