I don’t go to libraries often, but I read tons of ebooks from them. My kid is getting a library science degree and volunteers at one and I’m always impressed with how busy and vibrant it always is.
Do you love a specific local #library? Why not give them a shout out and help to destroy the myth that libraries are no longer relevant. Please share and add your own library to the thread!

I’m having a really interesting time playing My Rocket Lab. When I’m not playing it, I’m not even sure I’m that into it. When I am playing it, I want to stay up all night to play it more.

I don't care about 60 fps in games. As long as it's at least 30 I'm good
Most of the best games I've played were 30 fps, like Astral Chain. It's not unplayable
I can't even tell a difference between 30 and 60 unless it's a side by side comparison or something

I have lived and driven I dozens of states and none of them have drivers as bad as Florida. I’m not surprised by this at all.
Florida remains the most dangerous state in the nation for bicyclists, report says

In about 21 days I won’t have insurance at all because my marketplace plan went up 300% and would be more than my mortgage, so yeah, I’m ok with all these things.
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.
What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?
Who in the USA gov runs the program?
R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

In the muppets universe do you think there is one muppet who is regarded as a dangerous conspiracy theorist for yelling about how everyone is being secretly controlled by a hand inside them
The other muppets think this is a metaphor, and he's like "no it's a literal hand inside you! Inside you all"
