@mcc seriously, if you're well off please leave the public library spaces & facilities for people who really need it.

At least fairly obvious in #nz It is likely that is the only heated shelter vulnerable get through the day and only place they have access to internet & even access to computing devices.

So rather than free loading & be smug it was paid by your taxes and "entitled" to use it, find somewhere else to spend time and just go to the library when you really need to use it.

@mcc I went down to the library a couple weeks back because it's right next to the barber shop and the barber blew through my haircut so fast I had a rare spare, unplanned hour.

You know what happened?

1) A conversation behind my head where someone was astonished you could take the books home and the card was free (seriously, if we tried to invent libraries today they'd make them illegal)

2) A local author had her book reveal and signing in the front of the library. I just wandered up and met a neighbor for the first time!

Damn, libraries are fucking sweet.

Other things I love:

- Not being in pain (I am in a low-to-insubstantial amount of pain this afternoon

- This cinnamon roll I am eating right now

Y'all I love FUNCTIONAL, NONDISCRIMINATORY MUNICIPAL SERVICES and CINNAMON ROLLS
