🫠. My city just got a new big beautiful library so I stopped by today. Its a library system I hadn’t seen before, where theres only like 5-10ish books on each shelf row and everything else you have to look up on a computer and ask them to pull from the back for you. Which I say because idk, given that system I feel like the books you *do* put out are a choice.

One of the tiny handful of books they had out in the history section I hadn’t heard of until today was called ‘Genocide Bad’ by an antizionist Jewish TikTok influencer. Even objectively it’s kinda bad writing lol, its each chapter is essentially an argumentative rant about xyz 10/7 and Israel related topics. But among some of the more out there parts are him going on for quite a while about how the Torah is evil and he’d actually renounce his Jewishness if it would help the Palesntian cause, but only still calls himself one because he thinks it helps. And essentially an entire chapter of him glazing Sinwar and saying he understood why he ordered bombs to civilian areas so no he won’t condem Hamas and hopes he would have their same courage if it came down to it.

I know library’s are for all view points and I think I’d feel differently if this was ‘normal library‘ with full shelves w books of all kind. But since it is one where very few history books are actually put out I left feeling a bit sour about the whole place and just needed to vent.

26 and embarrassed to admit I still don’t have my DL. Got my permit last fall and had someone teaching me but they became very flakey/dropped the ball. Would love to get this knocked out over the summer before my permit expires come fall and would appreciate recommendations re: places that work with adults. I get very anxious and am worried the only 6 hours behind the wheel most adult programs give won’t be enough to see me through actually passing the test 🫠. My out of state parents are paying for it too and I don’t want to drive them broke by having to make them pay for the same program multiple times.

I know law school is a whole lot of suck, but for those of us that are graduating soon, what’s a funny/nice memory you’re taking with you?

This one of mine gives away my school to any of my peers who also remember this lol, but during 1L con law a group of guys had a running bit that whenever one of them was cold called they would somehow tie in the phrase ‘pandora’s box’ in whatever they said. The giggles the class got throughout the semester as more people caught on to the whole bit always made me laugh and I still do thinking about it, ridiculous as the whole thing was.
