Emil Cioran, On the Heights of Despair

As a former librarian I'm actually required to remind you that many libraries that subscribe to Libby are opted into a program that lets you subscribe and access magazines for free with no wait

And that this is actually a really fun, low cost way to not only access news and larger cultural magazines, but also to get free patterns for many different crafts that you can screenshot if need be and that lower the financial barriers to entry for trying new things

From my experience working in both academic and public libraries, many libraries are use it or lose it funding-- I have to say this because a lot of patrons feel guilty for how much they use the library and how often they're using it funny enough, but the worst thing you can do for libraries is not try out new features and not use what's already given to you as much as possible.

The numbers that come as a result of your patronage are how most libraries justify their continued existence in times of financial hardship, which sucks but, go check out some magazines on Libby!

Since the name I was going to use for my solo music career, Will Wood, is already taken by some nobody with a ukulele, I’ve decided I will start releasing music under the pseudonym Paul Penis. Keep your ears open everyone, check your Spotifys for Paul Penis, big things are coming from future hit indie musician Paul Penis.

“اسرار اَزَل را نه تو دانی و نه من وین حرفِ معمّا نه تو خوانی و نه من؛ هست از پس پرده گفت‌وگوی من و تو چون پرده برافتد، نه تو مانی و نه من. The eternal secrets neither you know nor I And answers to the riddle neither you know nor I Behind this veil there is much talk of you and I, When the veil falls, neither you remain nor I.”

— Omar Khayyam
