We've just passed 20% of our goal, which is very generous of people who have contributed! Can you help?

My daughter's choir is going to Greece! Please help us raise the money to send her! Your generosity will mean the world to her and to us!

Young teacher comes into the library on this the 25th of October and says “I need 20 picture books about Halloween” and I’m like “Absolutely, no problem, did you need anything else with that, maybe some Eras Tour tickets?”
Laptop. And I sometimes cried when I left it out of reach.

I share everyone's alarm about college students who won't read whole books. But don't blame us, man: libraries have been straight-up bribing your kids to read every summer with slap bands and temporary tattoos pretty much since Alexandria.

I want a “reverse Costco” where you can buy small amounts of items you will rarely use again, like specialty ingredients.
Let me pay $1 for 1 oz of fish sauce. Yes, I can get much more for not that much more money but then I’ll feel guilty every time I see it in my fridge.

Despite what some dummy in a video would have you believe, "fetus" does not mean "little human" in Latin. It is an adjective meaning "pregnant" in classical Latin, and per the OED even the earliest English uses of "fetus" as a noun refer to any animal, not just human.

So disappointed to hear laughter and a crash outside our house at 2am and wake up to a smashed book bin!
