this collection is my biggest by far: huge statement garland earrings + tiny choker necklaces + dainty pearls w/ hand-painted details, there's a lot going on!

which is your favourite? 💜

i'm starting to map out the jewellery i need to restock before the end of the year and it would be super helpful if you could let me know your favourite pieces - octopuses, vases, flowers? - especially if you're planning on buying any before 2025! 💛✨

plus, libraries exist to serve our communities so if you can’t find a book you like or if all the events we offer are at times you can’t attend, let us know!! we can’t make changes if we don’t know that folk want them

[plato's fire 🏺 @platos_fire]

this this this and VISIT US!

borrow our books, use our printers, attend our events, sit on our sofas for a couple of hours to keep warm in the winter for free

if you don’t use us we won’t have even a chance of staying open

As always, action is therapeutic! Get involved however you can, whether that's volunteering, signing petitions, campaigning or simply voting in your local elections - you'll feel a little less aaaaaaaaaaaaaaggghhhh after, honest - and it makes a difference too.
