Baby Reindeer…. Netflix…. was like an uncomfortable, horrible rollercoaster. Could not look away.

Hi all! Wanted to recommend the TV show “The Artful Dodger” on Disney+ to all my fellow English Literature friends. It’s pretty graphic (takes place in a Victorian hospital) but it’s a very fun reimagining of Dickens’ characters and is set in 19th century Australian colonies. David Thewlis (Remus Lupin) plays Fagin!
-
@gilbertmaryjoy Putting it on the list!

@matilda. This:
“Do you feel safe?” — the librarian had something she wanted me to know: “I don’t care if a person is rich or poor or homeless, Black or white or gay or whatever. I’m here to help everybody.
Well said.

I had really wanted to do this while I was in the program but the timing never worked out. Maybe some of you would be interested. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/reading-nation-waterfall-892296279_its-almost-time-to-register-for-the-summer-activity-7184686784520314880-2A66?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop

I finished “One Day” on Netflix… stunning.
-
@michael What is that about? I see it advertised but I don’t know the premise.
-
@matilda I don’t want to give too much away, but it is a story of a couple that meet on the night of graduation from the University of Edinburgh and the time they spend together over the years. It’s called one day because every episode takes place on the same date in a different year.
-
That does sound intriguing. Sort of a riff along the theme of Same Time, Next Year. A movie that I sadly cannot seem to find anywhere.
-
@matilda I saw that movie when it came out. I was 13! Perhaps too young but I loved the story!
-
And wow…it is elusive. Only thing I can find is the DVD: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0001CNRBG/?tag=broadwaywor01-20
-
I’m pretty sure I have only seen it once in my life. If I’ve even seen it all the way through? It was one of those movies that sometimes played on Saturday afternoons on TV when I was young but then became hard to find when I got old enough to be interested.
BUT right after I commented I was actually finally able to check my library’s…[Read more]

@matilda That is perfect! Cheap DVD player and a library DVD! I so appreciated the them song for STNY. It was nominated for an Oscar.

I have three more shows to add! The New Look on Apple TV+, Ripley on Netflix, and We Were the Lucky Ones on Hulu. Ripley especially is amazing.
-
@matilda SO COOL! I have been thinking about all three of these and will give them a try. I am currently binging “One Day” on Netflix. I am hooked. (Also, the Scotland scenes send me! 🏴)

I wanted to wish you all a happy Nowruz (persian new year), which this year will be tonight, March 19 at 8:06 pm. I looked at the programming that libraries in the bay area have around this event, and saw this from Palo Alto library: https://library.cityofpaloalto.org/blogs/post/celebrate-nowruz/

@royaflin Thank you for sharing this. I have always marked the changing of the seasons and the equinox and solstice. I appreciate the section on preparing yourself on the page you shared. Happy Nowruz!

@michael. I was wondering if there is a video that goes along with the slides for the CLA presentation on the Hive in Spokane? I searched for it on the web, but wasn’t able to locate it.

@royaflin I corrected the link! https://www.dropbox.com/s/ycbp2xnpbvkdwxb/CLA_Hive_Slides.pdf?dl=0

If we are all healthy by then, I will try to go and take some pictures and share thoughts!

Has anyone else encountered weird issues when composing posts in WordPress? I’ll be working on a draft and it will randomly not recognize my cursor and not let me go back to edit text…Sometimes I refresh or give it a second and it works again, but man, it’s aggravating!

If anyone who doesn’t have a Netflix account has been wanting to see the adaptation of Nimona, Netflix just uploaded the whole film to YouTube for people to watch for free. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4CFWTYFRlw

@emmizo I am sad. That was a good one. Looks like the ACRL site is having issues. I updated the resource to go to the library project page.

Hi and Happy Friday, Everyone,
Does anyone have a hot tip about how to insert accents over letters (specifically accent aigu over an “e”) in Word Press? I could not locate in Post edit mode. Also, learned that when you import a movie from iMovie, it appears as a link instead of a player…Just sayin’!-
@lauraw Will have to do some searches about the accents. Not familiar with how to get those. The movie could be stored at YouTube and the URL would auto-embed. Or if stored in some cloud service a link is the best way to ge.
-
GO. 🙂
-
Take a look at this: https://www.greengeeks.com/tutorials/how-to-include-special-characters-in-posts-for-wordpress/
Looks like you can copy the HTML and add it that way.
-
-
@lauraw I found the little copyright symbol of an R with a circle around it in Google Docs>Insert>Special Characters, then you just select it. It transferred over when I copied the doc into my WordPress blog. I am assuming other word processing programs will have a similar feature
-
@emmizo, what a genius workaround, albeit a higgledy piggledy one! It worked. Thank you so much! Would be worth it to create a new doc for each posting anyway as a way to doc. e-portfolio evidence.
-
@lauraw, I did a little overkill last year to save my blog for my e-portfolio. I have a copy of each one as a document in my google docs, I imported my entire blog into a different wordpress account, and I took a screen shot of each one! I am a little nuts though.
-
@emmizo No shame in that game! Can never be too careful with that portfolio.
