it's sad what happened to my city's libraries. used to be one of the best systems in the world, honestly. in under 10 years they've been transformed into, basically, loud cafeterias with bedbugs.

Libraries are from a bygone era where people still cared about their communities. They cater to the downtrodden and untouchable class now because they are from a dimension that believed in Lockian values thrust into a society that is a Hobbesian textbook.

What amazes me is how these people tell story after story after story of doing free social work and then top it off with "and that's why LIBRARIES are vital!" No, a community center is vital, and librarians are too nice to not do community service for free...

like it's great that there are people who do this! it's absolutely necessary! why is it the *library*?

I don't know if 'meth' was a thing when I was growing up, but all the housing challenged folks hung out at the downtown library where I grew up. I thought that was common.

I never saw any bums at the nice suburban branches where I got a lot of my books though.

Give me another institution that has the placement, infrastructure, and still to this day.. Esteem, that can be the community centers of the future. Particularly in metropolitan areas. The digital divide is real and I've witnessed the efficacy of libraries as community centers.

Of course some extremely well off librarian that has been making six figures for 2 decades can and should have this fucking opinion, no?
