Hello. LIS scholars, scholars of #LIS for those of you on hashtaggy places: are you familiar with LIS research that points to PEOPLE as the dominant/preferred resource of information? Can you point me to it? I’ll hunt some down myself but thought I’d ask.
Hey Internet. What’s fun with a kid in Amsterdam? Besides De Poezenboot, obviously. đââŹ
Me: gets Steam Deck for Christmas
Me: proceeds to add tons of 90s PC adventure games to my Steam wishlist
đŽ Started playing The Secret of Monkey Island on the Steam Deck. Correcting a gap in my point & click bona fides. So far Yakko & Wakko Warner as the Fettuccini Brothers is my favorite part.
Loved my first day hike, hiked in spite of the sense of impending bursitis. Two days later, bursitis is still here plus some other joint pain and I’m trying to figure out how to deal without just taking to bed for the day.
Q: Was there ever a series of books you were skeptical about, but ended up liking very much?
A: I can’t think of any right now but this is a great question & I’m going to keep thinking about it.
Q: who was your crush in middle school lmao
A: Had a different one each year. Not naming names but one of them performed surgery on my mom a few years ago.
Q: the longest time you’ve ever gone without showering?
A: Don’t know but far too long, more than a week. I’m generally bad about it & new parenthood made it even worse.
Dense fog advisory today until 10 AM. Big woodland goth vibes.
Finished reading: The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie đ
Poirot’s first case. A bit of homage to Doyle at the start, then on to the modes that come to define Christie’s work: a rogue’s gallery & a drawing room reveal.
