"How many languages do you speak?" Lame, Cliché, Boring.
"How many languages do you read?" Now that's interesting.
#sometimes I read papers in French even tho I don’t speak a lick of French but a lot of times it’s like the only language where stuff has#been written for a specific subject#written French is very similar to Latin#I don’t speak a lick of French tho lol

Dorothy Porter is known as the "Dewey Decimal Decolonizer."
Dorothy Porter was an African American librarian who worked to challenge and decolonize library systems, including the Dewey Decimal System, which traditionally marginalized non-Western perspectives and cultures. She advocated for more inclusive classification systems that better represented diverse voices and histories.
Porter's work emphasized the importance of equity and representation within library collections, aiming to create spaces that reflect the richness and complexity of human experiences. Her efforts have contributed to ongoing discussions and actions toward decolonizing library practices worldwide.

I only have three weeks left in the fall semester O_o (this week, and then I have a week of break before the last two weeks). Why does fall always go so fast?

“Break, break, break
At the foot of thy crags, O Sea!
But the tender grace of a day that is dead
Will never come back to me.”

My getting up early hack is that my alarm song is a track from the Witcher 3 that plays during combat, which I always associate with a huge adrenaline rush bc combat in that game is so fast and stressful.
No chill alarm music, only alarm music that makes me feel like I have to jump up and grab a sword
