Just got word from my college roommate - who is the state archivist for the state of South Dakota - that due to the DOGE shutdowns of IMLS, they can no longer fund InterLibrary Loan in SD.

This means exchange between libraries, ability to get books delivered across the system, is gone as of 4/30.

One of my cats loves pineapple, he's such a weirdo in the best way

Thank you for this new pile of to reads! 😁

If you are in MA, this is the hotline for warning folks about ICE activity www.lucemass.org

This. They are randomly abducting foreign students to create fear, to get those students to leave, to take their incredible minds and money with them. They are trying to destroy learning and long lived institutions. An uninformed populace is more easily controlled.

Completely inconsequential, but where are the bananas coming from in Baldur's Gate 3? Faerun doesn't strike me as having bananas...

@chucktingle.bsky.social thank you for this queer joy

Absolutely devouring @chucktingle.bsky.social's Bury Your Gays, about halfway through. I've never been into horror, but this and @tkingfisher.com's creepier works are really hitting right now.

Also, I have a cat in my lap, so clearly I'm not allowed to get up and I'll just have to keep reading...

It's a lazy kind of Saturday

I learned about Two Point Museum on museum-sky (I don't know what we call it...). I promptly bought it, because clearly it's research. Holy crap do I have Thoughts after building a period room for a spirit so guests can gawk at her!

Meme showing Agent Cooper from Twin Peaks giving a thumbs up. Text reads "Bothered. Dehydrated. Feral. In too many lanes. Distracted. Barely surviving. Unhinged."

Starting a new chapter, reinventing myself yet again. Maybe I'll chronicle it here? I've never been good at keeping up with posting on the social media. Stay tuned for cats and takes on learning museum studies.
