Hey I decided to write something about the Mets. Read it, or don’t. If it’s good, tell me, if it’s not, be nice about what’s bad. chris-newsletter-059b72.beehiiv.com/p/the-david-...

ICE detained [legally present] migrant farmers picking blueberries in my hometown last week. They’re just waiting to hunt down the people who are here to pick our food.

A finch decided to join in my program as we were cleaning up. After 30 minutes of failed attempts, it’s still there and hopefully will want to leave tomorrow morning. Poor little one!

Got a little bit of a creative boost, so finally prepping for my new monthly program starting in September. Can I learn a few chords on ukelele by then? Dunno...

Registered for #ALA annual in my favorite city! Maybe I can meet up with others in my sub-field there. The last time we were in Philly I suggested my favorite Greek restaurant in the gayborhood.

My library has consumer health librarians certified National Libraries of Medicine (under NIH) who help bring health information to patrons through programming, health screenings, and displays. We also provide HIPAA-compliant custom health research.

I’m deep in the weeds of our seed library (pun intended). I keep forgetting how much work is involved, and I’m simplifying it this year. Seed swap, seed library, and plant swap all in the works. Wish I could actually keep things alive other than herbs and tomatoes!🍅

I am currently $500 short of reaching my goal this week I can do upbeat or heartening but have you considered PETTY REVENGE IN A PRANK WAR Those are even funny to write so you get to be petty AND do your good deed for the day.

I have not posted here in awhile. Tried Threads out, because I can have a private account. I am okay. Union stuff is still going. Also, my creativity is a little tapped right now, I am working on trying to recharge that needed energy. Thank you all for the kind thoughts to keep me going.

⚖️ A few weeks ago, someone on Bluesky was surprised to learn that artists can remove their works from the blanket licenses granted by ASCAP/BMI. The attached letter shows how it was just done by Eminem to prevent Vivek Ramaswamy from using and/or performing Eminem songs on the campaign trail.
Letter from BMI to Vivek2024 informing the campaign that Marshall Mathers ("Eminem") had removed his works from the license that the campaign had obtained and that they were to cease and desist use or performance of Eminem songs.

I’m furious that, with all the amazing possibilities AI could have, the minds behind LLMs settled on mass plagiarism, destroying creative jobs, and filling the internet with so much falsified sludge that it’s now unusable as a source of news. Support creators. Support libraries. Support humans.
