P. A. Announcer News - May 15, 2024

What do we find in today’s P. A. Announcer News? More reason to research names, if you’re helping with commencement make sure you have each person write their name phonetically because it’s really hard to get it right on the spot. Wade Minter of the Carolina Hurricanes is a PA by night, and a software developer by day; Leighton Area High School P. A. announcer gets support; the boxing announcer…

Tumblr holidays and Tumblr lore are really awesome because they feel like really weird inside jokes between a bunch of people

Thinking abt how all the einherjar will die come Ragnarok and how Magnus will probably outlive Blitz, Hearth, Samirah, Amir and Annabeth.

But just imagine, Alex dying in Magnus' arms as he tries desperately to heal she/he, knowing they will both end up dying either way, but still holding onto hope as he sees his friends fighting around him and slowly dying. He can't save them, but gods damn it, will he try.

Imagine when it's finally his turn, he holds onto the hope that he will once again see all his friends and loved ones. Those who had died years ago and those who had died more recently.

Maybe he will see them again. Maybe he won't. We don't really know for sure, but we can still hope.

A moment from my new Hamilton AU - "The Longest Night"

Might post more spoilers later

“— It's hilarious how you stick up for that pathetic mudblood. Full moon season hiting you hard, am I right, Jacky?"

"— What did you said?...—"

How it feels to do research sometimes:

aka was reading a paper/dissertation, thought the author wrote quite well so I got curious and googled her institution

- turns out it's a US university that was attended by frickin Thomas Jefferson?

(I mean it objectively has nothing whatsoever to do with my research but still. Cool.)

I think I need to start coming up with my own unhinged and unverifiable history takes. Anyway, Stephen Gerard founded Gerard college because after he bought the first bank of the united states he spent the rest of his life haunted by the ghost of Alexander Hamilton

Is the Buddwick Public Library an archival repository? [Part 2]

continued from part 1

Steven and Connie come to the realization that Buddy founded the public library

There is no doubt that Connie is right to say that Buddy "really did leave a mark on this town." I am reminded of how, after some debate, the U.S. Congress purchased books from Thomas Jefferson to replace the books destroyed when the British burned the Capitol in September 1814. This formed the foundation of the new Library of Congress collection, which grew over the years. Jefferson's books didn't last very long though. A fire in later December 1851 destroyed "nearly two thirds" of the over 6,000 volumes which Congress had purchased from him! In the case of Buddy, he seems to have gifted his books rather than making a government entity buy the books from him.

Reprinted from my Wading Through the Cultural Stacks WordPress blog. Originally published on Aug. 12, 2022.

As viewers, we don't know, from a 11-minute episode, the status of Buddy's books in the library itself. One could speculate they are, like in some libraries, in a special collections. On the other hand, the crux of the episode is Steven finding a rare book, literally a journal written by Buddy himself, stashed under an ordinary library shelf, clearly misfiled. This begs the question of whether Buddy's books are within the library's general collection or if they are in a special area, a sort of mini-archives. That is something that fans would have to figure out by themselves, even possibly writing fan fictions about it if they were so inclined to do so. I may even write a story about it in the future.

Clearly, the Buddwick Public Library is a location for storage, but it is unclear how many items in the collections are kept for "safety or preservation," as the Wikitionary definition of the word "repository" states. We can guess there is a section for rare books and although the journal may have fallen off a cart accidentally, it almost seems it was deliberately put under that shelf for Steven to find or even to hide it from prying eyes. What if an earlier Steven hid the journal under there so that future Steven would find it? I wouldn't put that outside the realm of possibility. All theories, even bad ones, are possible here.

In the end, the Buddwick Public Library is a functioning public library, but it is not known how much effort is put into preserving information on a long-term basis, including books written by Buddwick. We do know that after the book was found, however, we know it became part of the library collection, implying that the library may have begun efforts to save rare books or at least organize them properly. If that is the case, then the Buddwick Public Library would be a repository in some sense, even if it isn't a typical archival repository.
