John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Maybe he'd be a better writer if he valued it. 052
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I was fortunate enough to be friends with Peter for a while. He told me this is his favorite of his books. Do with that what you will. 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I have received both The Calamities (Chuck Wendig) and Blacktail (Scott Hawkins) on the same day, and I don't know what to read first. Not a terrible conundrum to have. 001
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 09/09/2026So it's just kind of a constant buzzing, then? 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Oh hell. My mom told me to do this when I got my library degree 30-some years ago. I listened, and received zero responses. Answering an actual ad got me a job. She also once plopped the phone book on the desk and told me to start calling people to see if they wanted to sell their house. 1370
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 21/08/2026I just got 15 days worth of Bluesky notifications all at once. Weird. 000
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Oh, man. I have tons of holds and I freeze them until various future dates, and yet I still will get five coming in on the same day. 000
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Introduce yourself as what almost killed you: "Hi, I'm the sailboat that you didn't see while waterskiing." 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 10/08/2026When I am being too lazy to shave and have a full beard, I am constantly reminded that balding white guys with white beards all look alike. "Do I know you?" 000
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Hey there mister, ain't that Twisted Sister on the stereo, the radio... 000
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Memories of my 20s. Seen in the back hallways of the library. 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Obviously I don’t speak for all men, but pride in my gender identity? What does that even mean? I don’t look for male role models, I just look for role models. 0111
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 07/08/2026She is! She developed seizure disorder, but it's well controlled and she's healthy. This was like 30 years ago. Thank you. 020
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Ugh. This reminds me of when my little sister was having seizures and they put her in the psych ward for faking it. Yup, encephalitis. 160
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Look, I know you're not supposed to microwave eggs. But I had some that were not *quite* hard enough, and figured that if I partially peeled them so the shells wouldn't hold in the steam It'd be fine. Like poking the skins before baking potatoes? It was not fine. 041
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Oh! I know that word only from, what is it, Pogo? Some old comic. 110
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Well, now I need to look at yesterday's Spelling Bee. 110
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 01/08/2026I hated, hated, hated "Seasons in the Sun." After decades of actively hating it every time I heard it, I realized I was actually enjoying it when it came on. I think it started as enjoying the hate but eventually I just started enjoying the song. 030
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 28/07/2026As an Oaklander who recently vacationed in Humboldt County, I am greatly enjoying "Humboldt Cut" by @allisonmick.bsky.social ! I just happened to walk past it on the shelf a my library and it caught my eye. I love a book with a strong sense of place in it. 011
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 23/07/2026I'm so sick I've got to GO TO A PARTY AT THE BEACH! 000

John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 01/06/2026I claim to have read it in college, but the truth is that I skipped a whole slew of chapters in the middle to catch up to the class. So I've read most of it. 000
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 23/05/2026If I have anything to do with it, some locks are about to be changed. 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Weird end to my day. All the keycards stopped working, and the outside doors locked. I went to the key-card system panel, and someone had opened it and unplugged all the cables! Trying to figure out when it happened, so I can check key logs / cameras. Fortunately nothing torn out, just unplugged. 110
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I am very much a Texas sheep cake guy. Oh, sure, the normies call it sheet cake, but we know that's wrong. Basically a dense chocolate cake with a denser fudgy frosting that's made up of cocoa, butter, and a whole bag of confectioner's sugar. 020
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I would regularly sing to Norman: We love you Normie Oh yes we do We love you Normie And will be true! 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I love the curvature on those antlers. Then I look more closely, and are those bird heads on the tips!? 110
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 10/05/2026This is Norman, on a windy day. Photo by my neighbor Sandra. 061
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 06/05/2026Exactly. It's not proving you're not a robot, it's trying to take over your PC. 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 05/05/2026Is this where the Homer Price story about the never-ending donut batter came from? 000

John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 13/04/2026As a graduate of one of the many no-longer-extant small liberal arts colleges in Vermont, I like it! (Also the tunnel one -- I can relate.) 020
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 10/04/2026Or maybe so-called manly men need to be a little less sensitive and recognize that all types of work can be available to them. Why kowtow to backwards thinking? 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 08/04/2026I am taking a workplace violence prevention training online, and it says that it will teach me to "diffuse" tense interactions. Because having those interactions too close to each other is the problem? 000
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 08/04/2026That is not weird at all. It is sweet. I understand the impulse. 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 29/03/2026Yeah, these guys are right out there in the open with this shit. 011
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 22/03/2026Big thanks to whoever put these tickets on the office bulletin board! My wife was so disappointed that we didn't learn about this show until it was sold out, and it was such a treat to be able to see it anyway! And a joy to see Joan Baez up on stage with him. 010
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 11/03/2026Wait, are they doing this so their feet look bigger? Because they think manly men have big feet? 000
John Boggs @subsublibrarian.bsky.social · 03/03/2026Those teeth were a surprise! They didn't register at first. 110
