Federal library funding is under threat— So go support one of the last remaining public spaces.
It’s an outdated idea, somewhere a human can exist without having to spend money.
I took my young kid to a recent library event - the first time I’ve been to a library in several years, to be honest - and overheard the organizer (or leader or whatever) of the event saying “that’s why we’re here: to give people somewhere safe they can have entertainment for free.”
I didn’t have much in the way of an opinion on that person prior to that, positive or negative, but I respected the hell out of them after hearing them say that.
