If nothing else happens between now and January 1st this is going down in my books as the most quotable news item of 2025.

Seeking More Rigorous Author Guidelines at C&RL
In which @amylibrarian.bsky.social and I argue that if LIS journals had more rigorous guidelines for authors, things like that ridiculous "privacy of thought" article in C&RL wouldn't get published. crl.acrl.org/index.php/cr...

edited screenshots from the "Haunted Elevator (David Pumpkins)" sketch on SNL.
A couple (labeled "newspaper readers") riding the haunted elevator ask "Okay, yeah yeah. And cow tools is..."
Tom Hanks with cow horns (labeled"Gary Larson") wearing a goofy pumpkin jacket and an even goofier face stands between two guys in skeleton costumes behind a table with 4 crude tools on it and says "Its OWN thang!"
The confused passengers continue, "And the wierd saw is..."
To which the skeletons respond in unison, "PART OF IT."
any questions?

A screenshot of a tweet by Elon Musk (@elonmusk). The tweet reads:
βWhen Tolkien wrote about the hobbits, he was referring to the gentlefolk of the English shires, who donβt realize the horrors that take place far away.
They were able to live their lives in peace and tranquility, but only because they were protected by the hard men of Gondor.
What happened to the nice man who was brutally murdered while walking his dog will happen to all of England if the tide of illegal immigration is not turned.
It is time for the English to ally with the hard men, like Tommy Robinson, and fight for their survival or they shall surely all die.β
Below the tweet is a grey box that says: βThis post is unavailable" indicating that the Tommy Robinson tweet he's QT'ing is missing.
The timestamp reads: β8:02 AM Β· Oct 29, 2025 Β· 1.9M Viewsβ.
The "hard-men" of Gondor were getting their shit kicked in until they were rescued by foreigners and a girl.
The Shire was doing fine until they let a fascist demagogue ("Sharkey" aka Saruman) take over, close the gates, impose a bunch of thug-enforced rules, and despoil nature for profit.

Machado is a massive Donald Trump supporter. She dedicated her win of the Prize to Donald Trump. She in particular is a huge supporter of Trump's crimes against humanity, summary executions of Venezuelan mariners by firebombing & drowning at sea. That is who you disgustingly call a superb choice.

tweet from @mariacorinaya maria corina machado
this recognition of the struggle of all venezuelans is a boost to conclude our task: to conquer freedom
we are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on president trump, the people of the united states, the peoples of latin america, and the democratic nations of hte world as our principal allies to achieve freedom and democracy.
i dedicate this prize to the suffering people of venezuela and to president trump for his decisive support of our cause
