Sara | Bodice Tipplers Podcast: What’s amazing is that I actually got it from “nippleate a village”. That’s years of experience right there, they don’t teach you that in liberry school. Every time I see a copy of the 48 Laws of Power or whatnot I think about nippleating villages, just assembling everybody in a line, let’s goooo!

Libraries are one of the most radical social institutions we have, because they’re based on the idea that *everyone* has the right to information, for free. It’s also what makes them crucial to democracy. I will never stop yelling about this!

Poor people use libraries. Rich people shut them down because they don't *want* poor people to read.

As a public librarian, we're not perfect, but one of the things we also try to provide is dignity. Need help filing unemployment? Can't read very well? Housing application? You're welcome here.

I am always SO impressed by the respect and care I have always seen librarians extend to every patron, no matter what they were looking for.

I’m assuming there is a 2/ because I def have followup Qs

What’s amazing is that I actually got it from “nippleate a village”. That’s years of experience right there, they don’t teach you that in liberry school. Every time I see a copy of the 48 Laws of Power or whatnot I think about nippleating villages, just assembling everybody in a line, let’s goooo!
