there is literally a part of the elected leadership oath for my union, dictated by the international, that you promise to hand over all materials related to running your union to the next person to take office after you lmao

NO, NYC PUBLIC LIBRARIES ARE NOT "FULLY FUNDED" despite what the influencers on social media are regurgitating. Our libraries remain UNDER-FUNDED. Library workers need to be paid MORE MONEY, we need more funds for collections, we need more funds for programming & for capital expenses.

Most people aren't talking about the kind of transformations we really need, because I think a lot of folks have surrendered to the idea of living in a "rape-prone" society. The satisfaction of occasionally punishing some of the most egregious actors is all many are allowing themselves to hope for.

I skipped high school to buy tickets for The Phantom Menace. The following day my Dad asked ," how was school?" I replied, " It was fine " He then threw this newspaper at me and asked , " how the fuck would you know?" He was so pleased with himself that I didn't actually get in trouble.

I drink ~120 ounces of liquid every day, mostly water but also tea, because a little app on my phone wants me to use it more. That’s way more than the recommended and I don’t really workout so who knows. And yet somehow when I don’t drink my 120 oz I wake up SO THIRSTY

The place I buy deodorant from (because I’m a ~fancy~ bitch trying to cut down on plastic) calls the deodorant “deo” and unfortunately for them, the proper short name for deodorant is “yoderant”. As in “one sec, I gotta throw some yoderant on”

I do wonder about what level of disclosure about past harms we want from people, how we think about the harmed person and if they want the harm disclosed, and WHY we want the harm disclosed—and is it so we can avoid being tainted by association.

a challenge I have about demanding state politicians do things about the state of my employer is the leadership of my university has made it clear repeatedly that the state legislature has no oversight or influence on how they will run the university.

I've only been working at the U since 2022; in those four years, 3 of those libraries have been closed, out of the list of six. No new libraries have been opened; the reading room built into the Collection Facility built to hold the items is not public because of understaffing.

I also think the Nashville Banner story, which is great work by both folks who wrote it, has some revealing but understated moments about something we don’t ever really talk about which is the question of the performance of guilt and remorse.

Chicagoland friends, I have a favor to ask. I have a pro bono client, a Black woman, who is currently facing charges for allegedly pointing a gun at her abusive ex - who admitted to raping her. I would love if there could be a show of support for her at her next few court dates.

every single execution is a torturous nightmare as the state dangles a human person's life in the balance, and often rips the floor out from someone in either direction. the last minute attempts to stay are of course welcome but it's also completely disorienting

Over a 20-year period, people were sentenced to prison more often, and for longer terms, in years when prosecutors were up for election, a Northwestern Law study finds. In other words, prosecutors were more eager to rob people’s freedom when they thought it would help them politically.
