A 14-year-old girl wrote a letter to the Lego company about the sexism of their new line. I LOVE this. http://t.co/mVrwX1hN via @sljournal

5 Reasons Being a Librarian Is Stressful (a.k.a. Shut up, CNBC!)  http://goo.gl/Fmfcc 

Lady: "So what do YOU do?" Me: "I'm a librarian." Lady: "A librarian? That's still a 'thing'?" Yes. Looks like STUPID is still a thing too.

Kid, joke-threatening to hit another kid with a book: "I will whack you with knowledge!" Now THERE'S a slogan the library should adopt.

A girl looked at Roald Dahl's books on the shelf and said: "Oh, cool. He copied the movies." Well, that's one way to horrify a librarian.

"You dress well for your body type." Thanks! I also punch well for my fist type.

I see that "Real Men Respect Bieber" is trending. I'm not sure what that means other than the fact that someone needs to punch the Internet.

Hey librarians, tweet me a reason that your job is stressful and I'll put it in my blog post. I'm so tired of the media getting us wrong.

Honestly, Mitt reminds me of a surly library patron arguing about a late fine. He knows he's wrong, but he's throwing a fit anyway. #debate

You wanna know why I fight for libraries? Because inane, misguided crap like this get published. "What's a Library?"  http://goo.gl/NBhRP 

#SOTU: "The sooner a child starts learning, the better he or she does down the road." *coughfundlibrariescough*

I saw the shuttle! Took a photo of it flying by the Verrazano bridge. One of the coolest things I've ever seen. http://t.co/qQynvo1m

Well. HuffPo has picked up my @bookriot post. No going back now! "A Librarian's Response to 'What's a Library?'"  http://huff.to/17qRkIg 

People are complaining that the hurricane is being politicized. Don't forget, guys: ROMNEY WANTS TO CUT FEMA. This is political as hell.

People found my blog when they searched the terms "do all librarians go to bitch school." Gonna consider this a win.

STOP GIVING LIBRARIES MORE THINGS TO DO IF YOU CAN'T FUND OR STAFF THEM PROPERLY.

I'm too burnt out to deal with this right now. Just let me know when we have to start inserting "Amazon" into the Pledge of Allegiance.

Calling the librarian a "genius" because she helped you with something can ONLY work in your favor, my friends.

The phrase "banned by librarians" is illogical to me. It's like "set on fire by firemen." We should be defending books, not banning books.
