If you live in New Jersey and care about these things, I highly recommend telling Governor Murphy you expect him to appoint Andy Kim, the elected D nominee, to replace Menendez in the Senate. www.nj.gov/governor/con...

NEW: Sen Bob MENENDEZ is calling allies and telling them he intends to RESIGN, per NBC News

So many thanks to everyone who shared this! Here's a reminder that the survey will be open until the end of the month, so there is still time to participate. There is also info on the website about our forthcoming survey for neurotypical librarians about library workplace practices.📚

Are you a neurodivergent librarian or supervisor at a US public or academic library? Do you identify as autistic and/or ADHD? Please consider participating in our survey! This IMLS-funded study investigates the workplace experiences of neurodivergent librarians. For details, visit our website! 📚

The other night I was watching an episode of Midsomer Murders and I was wondering if a person would actually die as quickly in those circumstances as the show portrayed, so I googled it. Got a bunch of suicide hotline results. That's really good, but I felt like I should assure someone that I'm ok.

Mental health tip: If you come across an article that starts "We talked to a group of undecided swing-state voters..." immediately close that tab and look at pictures of puppies for a few minutes

I made it to an important meeting on time today by pure chance, as I had the start time wrong in my head.

Why are we talking about whether paying fast food workers a better wage will drive up the cost of a Big Mac instead of asking how much McDonald's CEO's $19.2 million salary is driving up the cost? Hello?

@knittymag.bsky.social Hi Amy! Very excited to see the First Fall issue for Patrons. One suggestion: would it be possible to make the subscription popup go away if it's been closed once? It's a little frustrating to see it each time you go back to the home page to select another pattern.

My former boss at Yale told of overhearing the following convo between hotel staff in an elevator at a Las Vegas ALA decades ago. “Who is it this week?” “Librarians, I think.” “Oh, GOOD, they drink like fish but they DON’T trash their rooms.”

I say this from bitter experience—never, never, ever try to outdrink a librarian.

Have spent this week in Nova Scotia hanging with awesome DH people, most of them Canadian. It's wild getting their perspective on US politics.

When I use fat to describe myself, it's not a pejorative. It's the proper descriptor, like blue or lacy or upside-down. Acting like it's a curse word, that I'm putting myself down, says more about YOU than it does about me. Sit with that, maybe, please.

If you are running a system-wide service and a change you make to the service prevents your constituents from logging in, and you are aware of that problem, you should probably communicate that to your constituents, rather than waiting for them to submit a support ticket. 🙄

Totality was the most amazing thing I've ever experienced. 😎

Hannah Waddingham is the episode of Midsomer Murders I'm watching. I love her so much.

I pulled one of my helix piercings out when towel drying my hair this morning, and the piercing salon's online booking system doesn't seem to be working today for some reason. Hopefully it'll be up tomorrow so I can book an appointment to have the piercing put back in.

I highly recommend Wegmans garlic & herb brie. I'm having mine on Triscuits.
