Today I have procrastinated by rearranging books. I have far too many for such a small house.
(Doing this reminded me of a piece by a #Palestinian academic I read recently. He has just started teaching again, but all his books have been lost or destroyed. To be without my books would be very hard for me)

Non work thinking books, a very miscallaneous collection. In front of them are a trans pride flag, my practice sword, and my longbow.
Books which are being evicted from my bedroom, roughly organised into loose piles on my bed.
The fiction bookshelf — an extraordinarily catholic collection, each volume of which I have some reason for keeping (not all of them are good!)

"IBM owns Red Hat which in turn runs Fedora, the popular desktop Linux distribution. Sadly, shit rolls downhill, so we’re starting to see some worrying signs that Fedora is going to be used a means to push “AI”."

A morning of Swedish jollification in the village shop here in Galloway, Scotland, in honour of Sankta Lucia.

Three singers in finery, mother, grandmother, and daughter. Mother wears a shawl of tinsel and a crown of candles; daughter wears a crown of tinsel.
The three singers seen across a very crowded shop, with many people sitting at tables enjoying pepparkake.
The three singers have moved into the doorway of the shop in order to dance. Bunting is strung across the ceiling of the shop, above the happy audience.
