something about this photo is so moving — just seeing pope francis as a real person who rode the subway (or bus?)

~HUMIDITY~

In other news, I’m at the annual library conference and feeling both inspired and somewhat deflated. Inspired by all these caring people; defeated by all the work there is to do, there’s no end to it! But I know I gotta focus on the lil bits and additions that I can handle. But it can make a person feel like falling asleep! (forever)

frowns upon a system, indeed!

pure wisdom from crème de la crème — i, too, am anti-billionaire (pro-millionaire, tho?):

Crème de la Crème is anti-billionaire and really frowns upon a system where a couple thousand people have basically everything and the rest of us have to vaguely hope that those people keep pushing humanity in the right direction and if they chose not to, we will not do anything about the system. I don’t like it at all. Billionaires are a threat to democracy and it is obscene that we allow people to have that much money. Late capitalism blah blah blah but you should know I’m kind of a hypocrite because I also absolutely love being in rich people’s business.

I know these two sisters who are both married to billionaires—yeah you’re not the only one with billionaires in your rolodex—and I often think about what their parents did right (or wrong?) because when I’m not being my highest self, it does feel very calculated. But isn’t all marriage a calculation anyway? And rich people marriages are the most calculated of the bunch.
