@DonnaMead01 Heard a few, that a library is failing if it has books that aren't 'worthy' in the collection, that libraries are communist indoctrination, or that Google means libraries are a waste of resources, but my favourite has to be that ebooks killed libraries so we must be a scam

Hey GLAMR peeps - what are the preconceived ideas you have heard about libraries? Just doing some research for work and am curious if anyone has heard anything new. Cheers!!

@TheLiBarryan Does it need to specifically be a teacher doing the supervision or could they send you to a pd session or course of some kind to become a child supervisor in the library?

If I have to work a Saturday during PAX, could the universe have at least let the train in be full of cosplayers and not vaccine protesters?

@CarrieAnneCoder @GailSimone But based on the initial statement if She-Hulk is over in DC then Martian Manhunter is at Marvel, at least I think that was the deal alluded to

Slight Marvel Spoiler Maybe... Question of the night: If She-Hulk were to live in the DCU for a year (an idea that was actually under consideration at one point), WHO IN THE DCU WOULD DO THE WALK OF SHAME THE NEXT DAY?

Made a random joke reference to Dr Strangelove about sapping our precious bodily fluids and was legitimately asked if I was with qanon - we're at a point where a satire from almost 60 years ago is being mistaken for reality today

@sallyturbitt When I read the phrase ADHD toolbelt I immediately pictured a batman style utility belt full of stimming aids and the like so even though you probably mean strategies for coping in society that can be hostile to neurodiversity I now kinda want pictures of that utility belt

I feel like this is simultaneously a big achievement and just developing a good habit and sticking to it. Either way it makes me 高兴

@TheLiBarryan Be careful, there's still three years left for that and Boston Dynamics might see that as a challenge

Looked up 'coranated' because the use in the media has been bugging me and discovered that to coronate is simply to have or wear a crown and a coronation is the act or event of a crowning - given this can we rename childbirth to coronation?

@TheLiBarryan That said, be guided by your collection development policy as much as possible so you have that automatic level of official support for your position

@TheLiBarryan Sounds fine to me - breastfeeding, smoking, and drinking are all societal norms and therefore thing that kids are exposed to in public spaces and (with very few exceptions) nobody bats an eye, why should that be different in a comic?

@PMILibrary Sometimes I really want parts of your riddles explained with the answers - in this case is the "built by claw fur tail and wing" a reference to Burley Griffin being the architect who designed it?

A truly lovely fellow at Perth Airport invited me into the Qantas Club lounge as his guest because we were both inconvenienced by airport equipment failures, delayed flights, and badly conveyed instructions - the people of Perth once again being amazing humans!

Then getting my Melbourne on with drinks at Sneaky Tony's, a hidden bar down a much graffitied laneway - on weekends you even need to know the password to get in
