happy pride my librarian friends in fl*rida aren't allowed to put up pride displays in the library at all because the director is terrified that they'll be defunded & everyone i mention this to is like "aw i'm sorry you're from a shithole :(" like bigotry just arises mysteriously as you approach the equator

#furious about this. yes my friends should unionize no that isn't helpful advice currently #usually i am like 'either the library is a sincere proponent of dignity for all our community members or it's nothing'#but that county defunded the united fucking way #nothing clever to say we just aren't ready and we aren't equipped to protect each other #sometimes i feel very bleak about the present and future of the public library. especially youth services
