Epic pays for licensing fees for the games they give away for free as promotions. Which means even if YOU aren't paying for it, you're giving money to JK Rowling to harm transgender people AND elevating her stature by giving her franchise higher numbers.

@neal.house.gov thanks for the reminder that the trans people of your district are second-class citizens. I hope your next meal gives you incurable heartburn.
115 Democrats just voted to codify the first federal trans segregation law.

How can you not even make an offer to a fan favorite who has been a Met his entire career? What kind of message does this send to other players?

Mets never made an offer to Pete Alonso, per Joel Sherman.
They felt his market was pushing beyond their comfort level on years and dollars.

Quick question for the #library hive mind: has anyone ever heard of a public library running a WhatsApp account?
We frequently get patrons wanting to print documents that have been sent to them via WhatsApp and it would simplify things a lot if they could just forward it to us there. 📚

Resistance libs welcomed South Park into the anti-Trump fold with open arms. Our founder Evan Urquhart was a bit less joyous to see the anti-woke edgelords of South Park recognize, at last, the dreadful pandora's box that widespread anti-wokeness opened up.

Against the Logic of the Guillotine
Fetishizing the guillotine is like fetishizing the state: it means celebrating an instrument of murder that will always be used chiefly against us.

Hey, so, I've been fired. Now that I'm unemployed like the other half of Bluesky, if anyone knows of work for a writer, reporter, or nonprofit grants manager, I'd be much obliged. You all know where to find me.

I'm a pass on card catalogues, but I am all-in on making sure our physical collections not only remain strong, but are designed to encourage browsing.
Despite what consultant-class trends in academic libraries will tell you, our patrons actually do want stacks in the library. We should listen.

The one thing I really miss about the 'older world' is browsing library stacks, and card catalogues. However much I appreciate databases and retrieving what I want in moments, the serendipity of 'the book next to the one I wanted' and 'the article in the same issue' cannot be replicated. #Libraries
