"Don't use Libby because it costs libraries too much, pirate instead" is such a weird, anti-patron, anti-author take that somehow manages to also be anti-library, in my professional librarian-ass opinion.
It's well documented that pirating books negatively affects authors directly* in a way that pirating movies or TV shows doesn't affect actors or writers, so I will likely always be anti-book piracy unless there's absolutely, positively no other option (i.e. the book simply doesn't exist outside of online archives at all, or in a particular language).
Also, yeah, Libby and Hoopla licenses are really expensive, but libraries buy them SO THAT PATRONS CAN USE THEM. If you're gonna be pissed at anybody about this shitty state of affairs, be pissed at publishing companies and continue to use Libby or Hoopla at your library so we can continue to justify having it to our funding bodies.
One of the best ways to support your library having services you like is to USE THOSE SERVICES. Yes, even if they are expensive.
*Yes, this is a blog post, but it's a blog post filled with links to news articles. If you can click one link, you can click another.
#yknow how people will stream on spotify while listening to their records?#i do that shit with libby#ill be readin a book and b like 'damn this is rlly good' so ill check it out or listen to the audiobook#granted theres nobody else waiting for it#and that way it makes me feel like im contributing to my local librarys funding#its like that one marge simpson clip#ill just check it out! itll be good for the public funding. itll be good for the economy.

I hate the casual cruelty culture this hellsite breeds I hate the hateful way you talk about Palestinians not only dying but ones who are dead I hate how you look at cold hard statistics and footage of Palestinians being bombed or assaulted or starved and still have it in your heart to say that this is propaganda that they are terrorists that they deserve it

A friend of mine has posted something every day this month for sexual assault awareness month, and im like. Oh, man. How do I even express how much I see and love them and what it means to me.
#i love them sm#im certainly not ready to be open about what happened to me in my. non anonymous life i guess?#in real life and on my personal accounts with my face attached#but i see them#and im so so grateful for the work they do

You can donate to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund for as little as $1.00.
There is a fee you can choose to apply to cover processing.
Which if you choose to do leaves you with a total of ~$1.35 (USD) depending on the type of card you have.
PCRF has a score of 97% on Charity Navigator.
Adults and children alike are currently dying in Palestine due to starvation. (World Health Organization Link)
The Gaza Strip is one of two places in the entire world that is categorized as Phase 5 (the highest phase) on the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification scale.
So even if you think it isn't enough, remember that donating even as little as $1.35 helps! It's $1.35 they wouldn't have had otherwise. So donate if you can. 🇵🇸

All it means when people say “you’re speaking from a place of privilege” is that you’re likely to underestimate how bad the problem is by default because you are never personally exposed to that problem. It’s not a moral judgement of how difficult your life is.
