Lots of random stuff. Collection Assistant at the SFC, so sometimes a little of that.

Following Bob Sheldon's assassination, the Internationalist, affectionately called "I-Books," was run by an anarchist collective. For the next 25 more years, volunteers continued and expanded Bob's vision, modeling the connection between books, ideas, current events, and political action. 3/

Without Bob Sheldon, there wouldn't be a Firestorm Books.

35 years ago today, Bob was assassinated outside Internationalist Books in Chapel Hill, NC. We still don't know who killed him, but the shooting took place in the shadows of the Greensboro Massacre and the Shelby gay bookstore murders. 1/

A photo of Christopher Lee, just after his latest metamorphosis, flying along a footpath on the edge of Dartmoor, being pursued doggedly by a local butcher he has recently stolen from.

A photo of Christopher Lee, just after his latest metamorphosis, flying along a footpath on the edge of Dartmoor, being pursued doggedly by a local butcher he has recently stolen from.

Probably the best photograph I’ve ever taken of a rare species of bat flying up a sunken path at dusk, pursued doggedly by a faintly outlined human ghost.

I don't hate my job, my job rules; just the University and its leadership makes it very, very tough to continue to do it without feeling the ick.

Who needs actual libraries when you can just piggyback off their "values." Hate it here.

UNC-CH Drops 'Library' From Merged School's Name Leaders from the existing schools said the β€œvalues” that libraries represent will remain a key tenet.

β€œAll of those values that people associate with libraries and archives, those things are still going to remain,” Kelly said. β€œThey’re not going anywhere.”

Just co-opting the name/brand recognition of libraries (makes me sick to even think of it like that) for their new stupid school.

An audience with Sir Kenny Dalglish and Kelly Cates: β€˜When dad resigned I was in tears’ English football's most famous father and daughter reflect on his highs and lows at Liverpool and her remarkable career in broadcasting

Cates: β€œMy kids first realised [Kenny] was a famous player when they had access to YouTube. They came to show me and were like: β€˜Did you know granddad is on YouTube?’. That was the highest praise they could give him."

Lovely joint interview, @jamespearcelfc.bsky.social.
