People are smoking again because “modern life sucks?” Collosally stupid. You know what sucks? Dying of cancer in your mid-40s leaving behind 3 young kids because u smoked your whole adult life, like my older brother did. Feels like yet another manipulative “big tobacco” marketing campaign to me.

I say it often but once again: By granting them borrowing privileges and protecting their privacy, public libraries afford children a form of civic standing and respect that has few parallels in our “free” society, which mostly treats children as chattel. Vociferously defend public libraries. 📚
