I love libraries because they're the place to exist, to belong and to explore. They're a safe haven to find solace in, a wondrous world of knowledge and a portal to escape into fictional worlds.

Tommy cash be like:
“Kids and teens have no third spaces these days!!!”
Before you go to Starbucks or other corporations who want to co-opt the term “third place” and make you become more consumerist, consider:
Are you making full, effective use of your public library?
This is especially true if you live in a big city. I know going to a store or mall is the most tempting third place. But go to the library. Find out what the library has available to you. I live in a major metropolitan area, and my local library offers books, e-books, and audiobooks to library card-holders, but also: sewing machines, 3D printers, recording studio space, individual study space, group study space, an auditorium hall, and conference rooms! Not to mention a website where you can use your library login to log in to ADDITIONAL websites that teach you valuable skills or crafts, or read research journals for free!
If you don’t live in a densely populated area and your local library has less of those things, you better go there and start asking about it. Because librarians WANT you to use their services. They WANT to stock up the library with loads of books and services, but they need the foot traffic and continued requesting to get the ball rolling.
You can also ask about donating things to the library! My library, despite its numerous riches, does not have a laminator. But I guarantee you if someone donated it, they would be eager to let people know they can use it. If you have a tool or machine you don’t use, find out if a library would make better use of it!

Tumblr mutuals you only indirectly interact with are a type of extended family
we sat down in the park with a ton of acrylic paints & tin cans, snacks, some friends, and painted away🌻
I’m so incredibly proud of Kylian against Germany today, he absolutely carried the match.
The way he could’ve easily scored the second goal but chose to assist Olise instead says everything about the kind of player and leader he is. He carried the match with maturity, skill, and vision, I love him.
🐐🇫🇷💙.
