This is wildly insulting to the indigenous people of North America and their practice of reciprocity with the earth and its creatures.

I'm seriously loving this book. I live smack dab in the middle of the Great Black Swamp and it's great to read about something we don't talk enough about.

It honestly reads more like a memoir than anything else.

AI generated books are a plague upon libraries and, more importantly, consumers.

After hearing about my local food bank, I'm glad to hear downtown Toledo residents will have this option again.

Congrats @toledolibrary.bsky.social

This is so sad. I dont have a lot of local connections on here but if you feel so moved to donate to the food bank, please do!

Earlier today I was comparing AI to the dot com bubble bursting and this just further supports it. I'm not sure if the huge costs will ever be offset by demand.

Ya know, I've always said that I would like to receive LESS and pay MORE taxes. So glad someone finally listened 😒
