Stochastic terrorism strikes again. This is directly because of Moms for Liberty and Libs of TikTok.

    Libraries are amazing. I’m a bit biased because my wife is a library administrator, but so many people don’t know what libraries have available. Ours, and this isn’t a big city, has free 3D printers, online ebooks, audiobooks and streaming movies, fun kits you can take home with you like a ukulele with an instruction book, a PS5 and an HTC Vive in the teen room, even a pancake printer. It prints pancakes in any shape you design in some simple drawing software. How cool is that?

    They’re opening a new branch and they’re going to include, again for free, a room with a lockable door and a sign-up sheet that has a shower and a washer and dryer in it. One person at a time, but think about how many impoverished people could use a shower and some clean clothes. And the library is there to help them.

    But these people think all libraries do is give porn to children or whatever.

      Libraries have long been a cornerstone of enlightened society. Only republican swine could oppose them.
