Three panel comic. Panel 1: people playing basketball in front of a crowd. The player with the ball is up against a guy playing close defense. Panel 2: the player attempts to spin off the defender by shoulder checking him, but the defender immediately falls apart, revealing multiple little green elves. Panel 3: the first player looks astounded at the floor. On it is a group of mildly injured elves surrounded by pieces of a human costume. 
This was pretty challenging to type out in text form but I tried my best

For years, Graceware has gotten away with abusing the DMCA because they've targeted large platforms that comply quickly with takedowns, or individuals without the resources to push back.

Then they fucked with us, a non-profit organization with a special interest and an expert legal team. Whoops!

Because I am nothing if not committed to the bit (and because we could all use a laugh in these dark times), I commissioned an artist to make fanart of a certain moment from @binarybreak.bsky.social.

Internet, I would like to introduce you all to Baloney!Kat the Hormelculus (art by Emory Daye).

We are training undergrads (18-22) to digitize vcr tapes, cassettes, and vinyl. We introduce phrases like "rewind" into their vocab and made diagrams of what a tape looks like from 6 angles. And we get questions like "how do I rewind a record" which is understandable but turns my bones to dust.

No, it isn't parents who should decide what kids can read.

No, it isn't politicians either.

And no, it isn't librarians.

Readers are who should decide what they read. Age doesn't come into the right to read.

Not sure how many different ways I can say this.

Lost 19th century film by Méliès discovered at the Library | Timeless Library conservators recently made a startling discovery in a batch of decaying film reels -- a long-lost 1897 film by early cinema icon George Méliès. The French magician-turned-filmmaker's

In September, a box of old film reels was donated to the Library's National Audio-Visual Conservation Center. One of them was a nearly 130-year-old, long-lost film by iconic French filmmaker George Méliès. It had not been seen by anyone in likely more than a century. 🧡

In the past year, metro Atlanta saw more evictions than all of New York Cityβ€”despite having *one-quarter* the renters.

Multiple Atlanta apartment complexes averaged an eviction a day.

"The numbers are mind-blowing," said Grace Hartley of Princeton's Eviction Lab.

I realize this amounts to a librarian hot take or whatever, but I just love writing in books so much. Also putting down the date and circumstances under which I got a book. πŸ’—

Also, while I'm here, cutting up books for collages/art is cool and good. Engage with your books in ways that make you happy
