Tomorrow we get to vote for our Union! I am excited and hopeful while also feeling incredibly grateful to work with the wonderful human beings that are the ALA Staff. We all believe strongly in our work and even more so in the work of our members and their libraries.
Happy #NLWD26, Library Friends! I made a ribbon for you to print today! ❤️ Thank you for everything you do!
Reading ALA Executive Board meeting minutes from 1906 and laughing so hard because Council drama be Council drama no matter the century.
Next week ALA Staff will be voting for our Union - ALA Workers United - you better believe I’m voting a big YES. Library Worker colleagues, I hope you are as excited for us as we are for the amazing victories in your work. Vote Yes because a strong staff makes for a strong ALA for ALL OF US.
This was the super simple dress I made from totes one year! It was super comfy.
We had to say goodbye to our HermioneCat. She was 21 and the last of our three.
SUPER STOKED and grateful to have gotten a ticket to see Edie Arnold is A Loser this morning. It’s the narrative feature I REALLY wanted to see at #sxsw2026 and I head home immediately after the movie 😃🤩
Just laughed and cried my way through the premier screening of Los Lobos Native Sons. Wow, what a great movie truly celebrating one of the greatest American bands. #sxsw2026
Introducing the niece and nephew to The Neverending Story and thus doing my duty to pass along this movie trauma to the next generation.
Watching episode 3 of the new season of #StrangerThings and spied a familiar READ Poster on the wall in the background. Nice continuity, too since the Bowie poster was 1987 😃
Finally had the chance to pull together my thoughts about The Librarians documentary. 🧵 Seeing the movie again I was better prepared for how anxious and infuriated I would be. And I was better able to see the hope at the end. Spoiler Alert: the hope is the Librarians. 1/
Today’s project was getting my @libcomix.bsky.social tattoo. The work I’ve done with comics librarians is one of the best things I’ve done with my life.
Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs (hard mode, no SW,ST, or LOTR)
Here’s my TrixieCub. We had to let her go a couple of weeks ago but she was a great little lion 🦁💔😢
Hey #libcomix folks at #LibLearnX25 it’s time for the opening session with @goraina.bsky.social and @scottmccloud.bsky.social . (cc @libcomix.bsky.social ) #LibLearnX2025 #LLX25 #LLX2025
I love when that picture comes up! ❤️ I just refound this one from #TCAF last year
New ribbons for #LibLearnX25 next week. Try not to dance in the revolving stacks, please.
