I miss back when I used to go to ballets and get to go to the after party... I was like 10 and my mom was friends with a semi-famous ballerina. So I have this nostalgia aattaches to the after party cause I am just this 10 year old boy around a bunch of beautiful ballarina all sweaty and glowing and getting to meet with each of them and congratulate them on their performance and then them hugging me cause, I was a 10 year old boy... memories.... I want to go to after-show parties again!
As most of you know, our library is being sued by 4 corporate publishers who want to stop the Internet Archive from lending books. The date for oral argument has just been set for March 20.

There’s a day of hate being planned against Jews for the 25th. Some shitheads on Telegram are calling for it. I have no idea if anything will happen or not, but people want it to happen. They want more pogroms, more massacres. Check in with your Jewish friends. This shit is getting worse and we are not okay
@rbreich You have your priorities mixed up... people making more than everyone else, no matter the extent is **not** the issue. It only detracts from the real issue, which is the quality of living of the poorest people below the poverty line.
Wealth is not a pie, a fixed thing with only so much to go around. One person having more does **not** mean someone else has to have less. Wealth is something constantly being created and destroyed, the real question is why arent the poor able to create wealth.
