You may laugh, but how many people with fine motor control issues would love this actually being something widely available?

Please op, if you made or know who made this, upload and share the 3D printing file and make this game a bit more accessible.

ACRL 2015

I need tumblrarians/tumblarians that are -

A. People that would like to compile and share sessions notes because we all want to sit in too many things, and time-turners disappointingly don’t exist

B. People that want to sightsee and sample a ridiculous amount of food and/or beverages

C. People that want to try a different variety of donut every day

Please be my friend if you fall into all three categories.

[babylibrarianblogs]

All of the above yissssss! We're probably making a donut run tomorrow! Message me for deets.

The fair use case to show The Interview if Sony will not

After Sony cravenly cancelled The Interview, people who had no interest in the comedy now want to see it — mostly so they can stick it to North Korea, whose threats caused the film to be cancelled in the first place. But where can they watch it? Some options are already emerging.

Does this mean that the fair use case for showing The Interview is open-and-shut? No, it’s not. But the case is strong and, anyway, would Sony really double down by filing copyright lawsuits over a movie that it was too cowardly to release in the first place?

So let’s hope that everyone from Netflix to BitTorrent considers making a stand on this one. This would be a good occasion for the file-sharing crowd to prove that they care about something more than getting movies for free.
