Who goes to libraries these days? I just "download" books.

It's like fishing. I don't HAVE to do it. But I enjoy the atmosphere. It's one of the last things I have left in this world from my youth. I spent almost every free minute I could in school in either the library or computer lab.

Once, libraries were quiet places. Then computers took over. Now everyone’s got a smart phone I’m hoping they can be quiet again.

The Covid-infected atmosphere? No thanks

As if the people stupid enough to not take precautions against covid even know where their local library IS, let alone have any desire to enter 🙄
