every day I want to die over the irony inherent in the fact that I cannot afford to file bankruptcy
equating democracy with electoral politics is bullshit. democracy is about the masses having power, not marking a ballot box every once in a while to select the representative face of your oppressor.
A gentle reminder when considering the pros and cons of FaceID: legal authorities can force you to use biometrics to unlock your phone, but they cannot force you to divulge your passcode.

@ebeth we're moving to Alma in December. I'm only just now getting access to a sandbox sort of thing where I can test things I have a use for; most of the talk so far has been collections and digital humanities stuff
@ebeth god, it's just awful. the student employees can barely use it and they grew up on computer programs.
in related news, we're shifting onto a new library software system this year, so I don't have to use ugly-as-sin Millennium anymore ^_^
it seriously hurts my eyes
on the other hand I think we shouldn't be charging for interlibrary loans at all... this library will literally never hurt for money, and our ILL income is dwarfed by the money we spend borrowing from other libraries
in the communist society libraries will be free everywhere
Whenever someone tells me what university they go to I immediately try to think of what their interlibrary loan borrower string would be and whether I've sent books there before lol
On a more shady level I wonder what their max ILL cost is, and by extension how much they do or do not nurture their library patrons 👀

@Noelle808 HA! I'm not gonna hold my breath.
I feel like it goes without saying, but if you don't like seeing me ask for help with rent or whatever on here, you can just mute/block me. It's really simple on this website. No hard feelings. Really.
I'm obviously only addressing people who would like to help me, and all those people obviously know who they are, and I don't feel the need to justify myself to them. :)
@Mephitidae
you can barely read one paragraph of a summary of a book, with minimal comprehension at that. what makes you think I care about your broad criticism of Fausto-Sterling's work, which you haven't read much less understood? garbage person
@Mephitidae I know, mind blowing. 🙄 Welcome to 2017 buddy
