First off, this is a post from ONE library who got IMLS funding from Libby. But libraries are cutting Libby everywhere as well ss Hoopla and Kanopy, and you can't put this one on the government.

I had heard Taxi before but the Husband hadn't, which is weird because this is his wheelhouse. Maybe it was in a movie at some point? Great Quiet Storm action there!

I LITERALLY just asked the group chat : Why has Sean Penn gotten such a pass? (He's so great in that movie maybe because I'm ready to accept him as fucking evil)

I saw it in the theater during Christmas season and we had to go look at Christmas lights until we no longer felt like offing ourselves.

I've been a Audies judge for 3 years now. I prefer non-fiction to fiction for lots of reasons but one of them is non-fiction has fewer fake accents.

It’s essentially an emergency that you see One Battle After Another in the cinema immediately. Sean Penn will win an Oscar & it has the best car chase in many years. And those aren’t in the top 3 best things about the film. Jesus shitting Christ.

Watergate was a defining moment for me because we only had 3 tv channels and it was on all of them and it was summertime and my days blissfully watching game shows and bewitched reruns were ruined.

I gotta vote Midnight Star because in 1983 Jamie Land that would be a solid A-lister.

Banned Books week seemed a lot quieter this year which pleases me. Performative nonsense which makes things worse rather than better.

Redveil is from Maryland and I hadn't heard from him in a while. What's he been doing? Advocating for Palestine and making a record with the guy who owns my favorite bookstore I found in Montreal. Solid.

Consistently surprised with how pleasant and joyous I find religious music when it pops up here, something I would never consider seeking out or listening to on my own.

Oh this is even worse than was shared this morning.

Shoving libraries under AI. Good work, folks shoving AI into libraries. Now they're just one in the same.

In an era we need to really be clear on the necessity and purpose of these democratic institutions, this is five hundred backward steps.
