Maggie speaking, my position has been 'reorganized' and all social media duties removed. The person who is taking on social media will be letting the Libraries' Tumblr account go dormant.
I'm setting this to post at the end of what I currently have queued.
The past 5 years, 56 Featured Bookshelf posts, and 6,300 posts/reblogs have been amazing. Thank you for all the great interactions.

Thinking about the history of the relationship between humans and dogs, and just arrrggh. Like, here's this beautiful creature that we can somehow form deep bonds with and who we have found ways to breed dogs with incredibly specialized abilities that have helped us survive over the centuries of human existence and all of them are so so good.

how fucked up is it that in the future you could stumble upon internet threads and the timestamps would be “one century ago” like imagine that… youre reading the words of these people, their conversations and their lives all perfectly laid out from over a century ago. and they say shit like “mario has the best nintendo feet” and thats just been sitting there for a century

Sometimes falling in love with a character is about seeing yourself in a character, or what you could be, and drawing strength and inspiration from them.
And sometimes it’s like finding an angry opossum in a dumpster, eating your trash, and deciding it’s your baby.

I was trying to explain tumblr to someone who had never used it before and she said “So what do people post there? Videos, like on tiktok?” and it took all my self control not to say “Mostly we just post bullshit.”

She ran calling WIIIIILD....fire
This message brought to you my Michael Martin Murphey
Here we go, a more useful bunch of information than “GO GET A RESPIRATOR AND PANIC WITH ME”.  I appreciate this person so much.
I hope this information gets around as much as the post I made about cold weather dressing - this is just as important, just in the other direction.
I was guilty of not having enough carriers for all of my animals - I’ve since rectified that.
I also ordered respirators today.  They aren’t that expensive!  You can get them on the Evil Site of Evil for ~20 and up.  Make sure they either come with the filter pads, or you get some.  It’s not always standard.

Alix Powell @thatpowellgirl Y’all remember last year‘s wildfires? @MinkasaurusRex [hey that’s me!] brought to my attention that is wildfire season again, and I think that calls for a safety thread. These graphics showcase last yeardrought drought versus this years drought. This year has the potential to be much, much worse.
I’ll put the rest in the Read More.
Keep reading

nothing wrong with being easy to please! give all the books you read five stars. watch that movie again after people tell you that it wasn’t that great. play that band’s new album on repeat, even though it’s not supposed to be as good as their old stuff. refuse to say anything critical about something you thought was cool. be bold in telling grumpy people “actually i liked it a lot!”

read anything you want honestly because reading is so much fun and you shouldn't limit that fun by reading things you think you should
