The older I get the more my politics align with that of Poison Ivy. Was she the hero we needed all along? 🤔😜

All in favour of changing Library to Book hoard, and Librarian to Book Dragon? 😁

P.S Book Dragon is obviously the best kind of dragon 😊

Post by dolohkov:

An Old English word for library was “bochord”, which literally means “book hoard”, and honestly I really think we should go back to saying that because not only does it sound really cool, but it also sort of implies that librarians are dragons.

Four panel webcomic with a sad book.

1: As a book, I have so much to tell. But nobody ever reads me. No one is interested in my stories...
2: It seems I am not worth the paper I am printed on! I'd be much more useful if I were a pack of tissues.
3-4: A girl comes alomg and picks up the book, and the book is happy.

It's sweet how Sauron wants to rule all creatures and bring darkness to all
Middle Earth but he also takes some time out of his wretched schedule to
write a little poem and engrave it in home-made jewelry.

We all need a hobby is what I'm saying.

Susan Ferrier (1782–1854) was born #OTD, 7 Sept. Her 3 novels – 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘨𝘦, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦, & 𝘋𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘺 – are vivid & humorous accounts of Scottish society. Often compared to her contemporary Jane Austen, Ferrier’s satires are much more vicious…
