[Eryn O'Neil @eryno]

me texting a librarian friend was like

me: I can just email a librarian for free advice?
her: You can!
me: For free?
her: Yes!
me: Really?
her: Yes!!
me: Really?
her: YES.
her: I've never actually thought about how weird and anti-capitalist that system is.

If you want to have the most unpredictable and frustrating life ever I suggest you take on two relief contracts. #why

If you’re a library worker whose health is suffering due to stress and short-staffing or you’ve been made redundant then it’s a crisis.

On the other hand if you’re the government, a ‘transformation’ consultant or a privatiser then it’s one big opportunity!

Today I have parted with six carrier bags full of my childhood books. I am feeling lighter and also like I have sold part of my soul. #anneofgreengables #themagicfarawaytree #inmourning

There is something mildly disturbing about this cover.

Perhaps I’ll become a pirate 🤔 can’t wait to see this exhibition @bodleianlibs https://t.co/yij0b7Bhca

[Bodleian Libraries @bodleianlibs]

Anne Bonny and Mary Read were brought up as boys, married as women, and then became pirates. Extraordinarily, they met on board John Rackam’s pirate ship.

The crew were later captured and hanged, except the women who were spared after being found to be pregnant. #BODtreasures

How many other people are wondering how the hell you get a job working on Blue Planet, whilst also thinking “ooo this sofa’s comfy” and “glad I’ve got the fire on”
