Even with explanations, it doesn't make much sense, even to locals.

This isn’t the main point, but occasionally I’m in a different city, have checked out of a hotel, and don’t have my travel home booked til the evening, and it really makes you understand how privatised civic space has become - libraries are often some of the last spaces you can freely spend time…

Even if you're an absolute shitcunt who doesn't believe in public services at any level, you should still be mad because that's "your tax dollars."

Fuck every shithead who thinks like this. Fuck 👆 these shitcunts even more because they've got a responsibility to do better but choose to do harm.
