This was by far my favourite talk at @hayfestival.bsky.social, even with the speaker joining remotely. A heart-stopping story presented with an authentic and engaging voice. Now I have to read all of his #books. #Care #Writers #Disability

Hanif Kureishi: ‘The NHS only functions on immigration’ Author praised NHS staff as he looked back on his time in hospital after a traumatic neck injury

Marked decline in semicolons in English books, study suggests Usage of punctuation down almost half in two decades as further research finds 67% of British students rarely use it

As an expat from the U.S., I miss #semicolons; I notice they are not used as much in the UK. Test your knowledge here on how to properly use them - if you dare!! #grammar #punctuation #Librarians www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

I'll never be a zeitgeisty, politically-minded social media poster- but firing Carla Hayden, Librarian of Congress, is egregious, outrageous and SO WRONG. What will get axed next, the @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social Library Bill of Rights?? #Libraries #Librarians #Censorship www.ala.org/advocacy/int...

When I worked at San Francisco public library we did have a Christmas tree but only accompanied by a menorah and a kwanzaa bush.

There is a thing called ‘separation of church and state’.

If you were fired up after hearing @elinorcarmi.bsky.social’s keynote about the nefarious #TechBros at #LILAC25, you will want to read this piece in @theguardian.com / Observer by @carolecadwalla.bsky.social about the ‘broligarchy’. #CriticalThinking #Librarians #Technology #DataLiteracy

Join me live on TTNS.UK tomorrow from 8-10 p.m. (UK) for a playlist entirely from the year 1980. (yes, for an extra hour this time around.) #InternetRadio #eclectic #FemaleDJ

@lilacconf.bsky.social Keynote 1: Academics have feelings too. Keynote 2: Dr Feelgood AKA @jsecker.bsky.social heroically flies the #InformationLiteracy flag. Keynote 3: At the end of the world, it’s #Librarians who will help you feel fine, from @elinorcarmi.bsky.social #LILAC25 #DataLiteracy

Trying to consider this through the pragmatic lens of ‘what micro change can I consider in my day to day’ to achieve these goals… #DataLiteracy #InformationLiteracy #Librarians #LILAC25

A certain company now offers a #GenAI for older adults tutorial. Reminds me of when I worked in a #BayArea #PublicLibrary and old folks would come in with brand-new iPads that their grown Silicon Valley kids had bought for them, with no clue how to even turn them on... #Librarians #DigitalLiteracy

When did life become so overly scheduled? It seems everything is pushed back by weeks because everyone is so busy, both professionally and personally speaking. There's hardly any room for spontaneity anymore... #RandomMusings #Librarians

Join me live on ttns.uk from 8-9 p.m. (UK) on the 27th of March for a semi-crowdsourced musical story of my life! #internetradio #femaledj #eclectic

I’m reading the brilliant The Dream Hotel by @lailalalami.com, it’s creepy and profound in equal measures. #algorithms #AI #dystopia #whatimreading #books

Weekends I catch up with friends and family 8 time zones away. I struggle generally talking about politics which inevitably comes up. Am struck by the news/information sources people actually read, even my loved ones, which span from benignly middle-of-the-road to nefarious. #CriticalThinking

Join me live on ttns.uk from 6-7 p.m. (UK) on the 30th of January for an #eclectic playlist comprised of musical #duets! #internetradio #femaledj

Sounds like a Sisyphus situation! 🤨

The inauguration falls on #BlueMonday and on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, what a travesty! I finally got around leaving X. I'll be here until this one goes killer too, although I'll never be much of a social media person. #deactivate #factsmatter
