I noticed that some people are reblogging this art:
Please dont reblog this!!
As you can see in this picture it was created by redkatherinee, who if you don’t know/remember is a radical feminist who drew trans people being boiled alive
I’m going to try and contact some of the people who’ve reblogged the post but just to let you know, if see this, don’t reblog it and if you see anybody else reblogging this, let them know!
Do you know how difficult this bottom line vision of libraries is to combat? The people who can afford Amazon don’t need libraries like the people who can’t afford amazon do. Maybe the library isn’t for you. I would beg to differ but let’s go with it. Not everything is about you. The people who need and use libraries won’t just get on without them. We have internet access. We have job help. We connect people to social services. We are a safe, free space to spend time. We are the only place in town that doesn’t want your wallet. We have an insane business model. We give you stuff with your word that you will bring it back on the due date. Does any other place give you stuff on loan like that? Not the car dealership that’s for sure. But we can do that because WE ARE NOT A BUSINESS. we are a public good. We are like roads and schools—we are for everyone even if you don’t use them all the time—which they want to privatize too. Fight for roads. Fight for schools. Fight for libraries.
If we had a maximum wealth law and a ban on billionaires, we could expand all of our libraries.
I have a better idea and it rhymes with “bee-o-scene”
ok am i stupid wtf rhymes with bee-o-scene been sitting here trying to figure that shit out for a hot minute
ABBA goes so hard in so many different ways like they really have a song for every situation.. breaking up? getting married? defeating the french? Finding out you have not one but three possible fathers??? Really they covered everything
Honestly Handsome Jack will always hold a a special place among villains for me since so few other villains are petty enough to personally call you on the phone every 25 minutes to call you a bitch and hang up again
our exit signs are green in Australia and as someone who works as a tour guide in spooky buildings, let me tell you if those places were awash in an ominous red glow instead of a comforting green I’d be a lot less fearless on the job. red glowing exit signs. holy shit that’s horrible.
Oh come on. Are you saying that this:
Doesn’t fill you with ease. In an emergency, this doesn’t make you want to walk in an orderly fashion yonder?
I literally saw that monstrosity in a horror movie and my first thought was “oh come on they’re laying on the colour symbolism a bit thick aren’t they?”
but no. you all really live like that. that’s just normal and not threatening at all.
