Hope everyone has a good week!
Love it, ha ha!
I’m stealing “daily stupid mental health walk” because that’s fantastic.
Ugh, food poisoning sucks so much, there’s not much you can do except go through it. Hope you recover quickly!
A little of both, actually. Not sure what the recourse is, which is part of the distress.
But…coincidentally I just found out the city is hosting a book drive for literacy awareness this week, so my book club is donating copies of all of the books that have been removed to the book drive. Not much but it’s honest work, I guess!
I guess that means my week is improving!
Trying to get books relocated/removed because they find them “obscene” (i.e. featuring gay characters or addressing things like racism). This kind of nonsense has been happening in a lot of libraries around the US, sadly.
Starting off rough, honestly. Local citizens where I live are fucking with the public library and it’s infuriating and depressing and frustrating and I feel powerless to stop them because the majority of the people here are okay with it.
All of my favorite clothes are thrifted!
I didn’t know this could even happen, I thought the trap could digest whatever it caught. Interesting!
True, ha ha!
For real on the joycons. I think I’m on my fourth set?
My bank account tells a different story.
But seriously an interesting article! I had no idea that such a huge swath of books simply aren’t profitable, even for the big publishers. Wild!
