So, while I won’t deny things a little grim out, I think some of us missed the importance that NYC found the money to fully fund NYPL, Queens, and Brooklyn libraries. These were on the ropes and they managed to turn it around. How did they do it? They were relentless.

Most NYers have no idea that libraries in the city have no more Sunday service and that libraries will close for another day if the current budget goes through. A 60 million cut to libraries while Adams proses a 200 million police "training" campus. Please connect the dots and REFUSE this bullshit.

Oh man, Rule 34 is going to be get very weird because of this.

People who miss the experience of going to Blockbuster to browse the rows of VHS and DVD's- you may not realize this but most public libraries carry a selection of new and old films. You'd be surprised what you can find just by visiting a place that will loan you books. Support your local library.

Mayor Adams is proposing $58.3 million in budget cuts for NYPL libraries. Further cuts would mean even more service reductions, leading most branches to be open a mere five days a week. (Right now every branch in NYC is open six days a week). www.nypl.org/speakout?utm...

I am feeling at capacity at the moment. But in NYC, our public libraries have already canceled Sunday services. Now the budget proposed might lead to yet another day of closure. I can't express how devastating this is. And we need better organizing against this.

So wait, the story the NY state Dems are telling us is the subways of NYC are so dangerous they need to send in the troops, but they’re *not* firing the police chief or cops who are unable to keep them safe with $5.44 billion?

Watching Google shutter things that actually worked, like Google Play Music, and now Google Podcasts, to turn them into YouTube Music is like someone coming into your kitchen who takes away your blender and kettle then lets you know you'll now only be able to boil water or blend things in your car.

So great to hear you’ve decided to take a stand against book censorship. Does this mean you’ll be dropping your lawsuit against libraries, too?

Rest in peace Anthony Bourdain. You would have loved this news.

Librarians support skelebros, skelehos, skelemangs, skelerangs, baby bones, M. Boney, 12 ft skeletons, home grown, store bought, and even medical models. All bones are welcomed in this zone. It’s a good place to find some brains.
