Lady Catherine the kitty lying on her side in her travel pillow-like neck cone, which looks like a big lemon slice (or maybe a yellow flower). she is not pleased with this.

i love reading reviews from like 1990 that are just so abjectly incorrect. first draft of history and you got it WRONG!!! loser!!! (i turn around and all my bad/wrong takes are taped to my back)
A QR code and text stuck on the sidewalk near the National Portrait Gallery: "Scan this QR code to learn more about Felix Gonzalez-Torres's "Untitled" (America), the light string work you see here."
this doesn't really count but once again felix's 'viral' metaphor persists: just like a covid distancing sticker on the ground, you can never get rid of the remnants
The 11-story building at 600 13th St NW, with a Bluestone Lane and Anne Taylor at the ground level. The top of each side of the building has a triangular arched roof with a small column at the center.
The first of the columns - so tiny, holding up so much (visually)
The second of the columns, even tinier, even more squished
the funniest, dinkiest column in the district
National Gallery's library, but a large black sign has been added that reads "NOW OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK THANKS TO NEW ENDOWMENT. & STARTING SALARIES ARE NOW $100K"

'look at mr. joe public over here, he wants to go read books but he's got a JOB during the week'
I am simply asking for 2-3 hours of weekend access, you can even take away mondays completely in exchange!!!
another rainy sunday where I want to go to the library and do some research–– oh wait all the libraries with art holdings are closed on weekends.
if i complain enough, someone will do something about this, i'm sure.
doing a "what song are you listening to" style video but it's just me running up to people and screaming at them to listen to the 2025 Library of Congress Stradivari Concert performed by the Isidore Quartet and available to stream for free on C-Span
if you have a question the answer is "probably, unconfirmed"

Democrats planning to run in November’s midterm elections have been advised not to antagonise pro-AI campaign groups that have amassed more than $300mn to fight for the industry’s priorities. The warnings by top party consultants, corroborated by people close to four different campaigns and party strategists speaking on the condition of anonymity, come despite internal polling for Democrats showing widespread public support for tougher AI rules.
They're calling it the best democracy ever.

Holding up a sign that says “VOTE YES - ALAWU; Strong Staff = Strong ALA”
Next week ALA Staff will be voting for our Union - ALA Workers United - you better believe I’m voting a big YES. Library Worker colleagues, I hope you are as excited for us as we are for the amazing victories in your work.
Vote Yes because a strong staff makes for a strong ALA for ALL OF US.
(u should unionize your own workplace too :P)
me, wearing an ALA Workers United shirt ❤️
don’t usually post face here but! I’m proud to say I’ll be voting union YES next week alongside my colleagues at ALA.
without a strong, supported staff, we cannot do our best work. we cannot effectively serve library workers & the profession if we are not represented.
I hope we have your support ❤️
Despicable fucking government.
and shout out to Zohran's/Rama's press team for knowing exactly which outlet would work best for this piece hahaha, I know strategic placement when I see it
