“Public libraries are such important, lovely places!” Yes but do you GO there. Do you STUDY there. Do you meet friends and get coffee there. Do you borrow the FREE, ZERO SUBSCRIPTION, ZERO TRACKING books, audiobooks, ebooks, and films. Have you checked out their events and schemes. Do you sign up for the low cost courses in ASL or knitting or programming or writing your CV that they probably run. Do you know they probably have myriad of schemes to help low income families. Do you hire their low cost rooms if you need them. Have you joined their social groups. Do you use the FREE COMPUTERS. Do you even know what your library is trying to offer you. Listen, the library shouldn’t just exist for you as a nice idea. That’s why more libraries shut every year
If this post persuades even one person to get a free library account and use it, my time on this hellsite will not have been spent in vain
It smells a little smoky outside and it makes me yearn for the feeling of being young and reuniting with friends around a bonfire. I miss feeding the fire and laughing. I want to roast marshmallows with my family. I want to sing silly songs and stay up too late and make stupid jokes.
Grandmas were so right about puzzles and knitting and crocheting and solitaire and reading slow and slippers and baking and watching deer in the backyard send post
I want to have all important dates in my calendar and meet up with all my friends who I love and cook whole-foods and learn to bake beautiful vegan goods and chip away at language learning and make an air-dry clay wall sconce to hold a tea light and finish my mending projects and swim every week and journal and use a bullet journal and konmari my belongings and stretch daily and read quick-witted books and never take offence
