maybe it’s bc I live in a city but I love LFLs so much!! super easy way to donate books you enjoyed but will never revisit again. I’ve seen duds but also found genuinely good books I never would’ve spent my own $ on. I’ve also met neighbors while dropping off/looking at books!!

once I started chatting with a sweet mom who told me she walks to LFLs every week to find a surprise book for her teen son who reads pretty much anything. I also met/befriended a woman who runs a LFL by me and she gave me a book (from her house!!) that she thought I’d like

idk, I feel sad for people who haven’t had these experiences! I think LFLs can be a v special community resource. there’s also an app where you can find ones in your area + flag LFLs that aren’t well stocked/being cared for so other neighbors can know to donate/help clean them up

Funny split reaction to this I’m seeing that’s SF ppl fretting that kids won’t “learn how to use ai” and NYC actual parents thrilled to be getting rid of crummy edtech programs that try to teach 1st graders reading via chatbot

Mamdani bans AI use in NYC public schools for K through 8th grade very curious to hear thoughts from parents of young kids on this, what’s your AI policy at home?
