I know it’s an unpopular opinion to say you enjoy the airport at this time of year but I really do get sentimental at the idea that millions of us are headed home to celebrate the holidays with our families. We weren’t able to do this just a few years ago!

This is definitely my kinda crowd but I am cracking up at the fair criticism of this group having recreated the library (except the entry fee for this reading gathering is $10) 📚 nytimes.com/2023/12/19/boo…

The offers such a helpful reminder of the violent measures industrialists would take to oppose worker strikes. I feel like that wasn't really impressed on me during school (if we learned about our country's labor history at all)

Absolutely love this story. Tis the season and particularly the year for retailers to roll out AI chatbots that are supposed to make your holiday shopping easier. But how effective are they really? One writer tested it out for herself nytimes.com/2023/12/14/tec…

heads up, NYC library lovers: 'This coming weekend marks the last day of seven-day service at New York City libraries, the result of the 5% mid-year City budget cut announced last month.'
