Congrats To My 'I Love You' Libraries Post Getting To 690 Notes But It's Time For Some Actions - Please

Congrats to my 'I love you' libraries post getting to 690 notes but it's time for some actions - please fill out the above form if you have been affected by the Internet Archive's MASSIVE book lost and have a read through the larger effects of this lawsuit.

I haven’t seen any posts about this! But, thanks to the Internet Archive lawsuit, half a million books have been removed from their library. They are calling for people to share their experiences to help them regain access to these books, so please considering sending something in!

another week, another task (i need to clean the windows, the dog's nose leaves prints allover it)

Tuesday, the 25th of June 2024

I am taking a day merely for reading for a paper and meetings concerning the next museum exhibit and my upcoming degree. It's all a little chaotic and I am fairly nervous but the sun is out so maybe a cuppa in the garden will help.

Things on my mind for the week

Read for that damned paper

Read texts for GDR seminar

Czech translations fairytale

Czech essay

Czech drills

Czech summary Dašeňka

Create word groupings and flash cards

“Let us toast to animal pleasures, to escapism, to rain on the roof and instant coffee, to unemployment insurance and library cards, to absinthe and good-hearted landlords, to music and warm bodies and contraceptives… and to the “good life”, whatever it is and wherever it happens to be.”

— Hunter S. Thompson

17.06.2024 // came home at the end of May for a month and hence, the lack of posts! I got done with my coursework and now the focus is on my ethics application. It's quite nerve-racking but it has proven to be a good anchor and guiding post for my thesis.

I'll continue to be away from tumblr because I'm trying to live from day to day and it is good to be away from social media from time to time. I have been turning inward, focussing on myself and trying to be patient.
