[Inspired by every Facebook thread about masks I’ve ever seen and the beautiful rants of Brent Terhune…] “Listen up sheeple! Wal-Mart thinks they can make me wear pants in their store just because they have a legal right to set policies for their own store and just because the government says pants are necessary to […]
I recently read Scott Kelly’s “Endurance” which is a combination of a traditional autobiography along with with a travelogue about his record-breaking year-long experience in space. This book was recommended in an article I read early in quarantine as a great way to maintain perspective during the pandemic by learning about someone who basically went […]
Found this picture of Shea wearing a mask from 2005 – I can’t remember the context though – could’ve been one she was wearing as a nurse, could’ve been because we were doing painting or using some sort of chemical!
I did a list like this about a month ago and so I thought I’d do another one as I’m now a few days into my *fourth* month of quarantine to see what’s front of mind these days… 1. Public libraries *finally* have a date for permitted opening which will be Phase Four Stage Two […]
This is a good video but guilty of one of my biggest pet peeves of the data analysis of this entire pandemic – not using per capita numbers as a comparator.

(I’m […]
Early on and throughout the pandemic, there have been lots of nice “We’re in this together“, “Humans have survived worse“-type messages of positivity mixed with advice to not watch too much news, not to think too darkly, not to worry about things beyond your control. These mostly came from sincere places – trying to protect […]
Perhaps like no other profession on earth, librarians are dedicated to providing others with factual, accurate information across an incredibly broad range of subjects (if you’re a Dewey fan, you might think of it as us covering from 000 to 999 – basically the full range of human knowledge!) So one of the toughest things […]
During the current pandemic, RN doesn’t just stand for “Registered Nurse” – it stand for *Required* Nurse and our frontline healthcare workers are going above and beyond in the battle against COVID-19 in hospitals, testing sites and other locations around the world. I’m so proud to be married to a nurse who fills this vital […]
