Uhh, the library?
As a former public librarian and current person who walks their dog, I’m of two minds.
-
I’ve seen less drug use and public sex at local public libraries than at interstate rest areas and on hiking trails.
-
If you’re going to overdose, I’d rather you do it in public where you can get help. If you’re going to engage in public sex please don’t do it around people that aren’t into that. There are private clubs for that.
Yea, but are you a …… sexy librarian with the glasses?
Current public librarian.
Almost no one does that stuff inside the library. Maybe they have more instances in places like LA, Chicago, Miami, etc.
Most abusers drink, do drugs, fuck, etc. then come into the library and stumble around. Like OP said, it’s acceptable bc it’s safer. Just as long as they don’t disrupt services or break policies.

What kind of monster attacks public libraries
The one that wants to ban books.
And free to use public spaces, One of the last enclaves from capitalism. Comfortable third places for people to just exist
Libraries have free books. That takes profit from Amazon.
Libraries have free Internet. That takes profit from ISPs.
Libraries have free research tools and expert guidance from librarians. That takes profit from all sorts of companies that profit off your ignorance.
And worst of all, that stuff is all publicly funded, so when you look at a library you see government helping people. And there’s nothing conservatives hate more than government that helps people.
Interestingly, I hear people around me complain all the time about public funding for public goods…
We have more than most areas, and almost nobody knows the things are tax funded. And it’s all really nice stuff, like the environmental center is publicly funded through tax and even people who hate public goods rave about it (so naturally I point out that it’s all tax funded or it wouldn’t be nearly so nice and they look like they smelled poop)…
Our major utility isn’t even really a private entity, because it’s a renewable (hydro), and they aren’t allowed to own the river/dictate water movement here. The city does that for them.
It’s like a bastion of public goods in the heart of conservative space, and nobody realizes that it’s all tax paid… because it’s nice.
Libraries educate people. That takes away their voting base.
The kind that has a vested interest in an ignorant populace.
At what point do Fox viewers wake up? Is there any point?
20 years ago, they were out in full force because of Bush & 9/11.
Without a Fairness Doctrine that requires news channels to actually, you know, deliver facts… We’re kinda fucked.
But fortunately, you can just trust that if the person you’re talking to watches Fox News, assume they’re a fucking moron.
My grandma watched Fox News and wasn’t a moron. To be fair, she was also wicked deep into her dementia.
Why the comma? That use of a comma is weird, right? Is it just me? They used one adjective. This wasn’t a drug-infested, cum-covered sex den. This was merely a drug-infested sex den.
Whoever writes their captions apparently doesn’t spend enough time at their local drug-infested sex den.
My credibility for Fox has gone even deeper down the shitter after I was at the gym yesterday. They had Fox news playing and they were claiming that people are finding cartoon rat looking men to be attractive. What kind of fucking news story is that?
Elizabeth Stanton , Larry Fink · Fox News: be ashamed of yourselves
How rude
And the article just KEEPS GOING
