Every November 3rd we celebrate this bigger than life icon who spews radioactive breath and stands 40 stories high. And this is no exception as he turns 71 years young…and this year is no exception,

#PortlandME - This Thursday! Open to the public!

"Dear USM Community,

The Office of Student Engagement and Belonging invites you to our #BannedBookFair on Thursday, March 13, from 2–3:30 PM in the McGoldrick Center, 2nd floor lobby.

In partnership with #USMLibraries, #WomenAndGenderStudies, #MaineTransNet, and #BooksAMillion, this event highlights the power of books that have been challenged or banned.

You’ll find:

- Tables of commonly banned books: explore their impact, purchase a copy from #BAM, or learn how to check them out through our #libraries.
- MaineTransNet will be offering resources and information on supporting #LGBTQ+ communities.
- Lecha Bubble Tea will be selling their iconic drinks, including their famous Thai Iced Tea.

Join us in celebrating the freedom to read and engage in meaningful conversations about #censorship and representation.

We look forward to seeing you there!"

Y'ALL I GAVE INTO THE BRAINWORMS

I saw this LoungeFly Lisa Frank bag and Books-A-Million and I regret not buying it. 😭🌈

I went into my local bookstore today. What a nightmare!

The magazine section that was a shelf 50 feet long, filled with all kinds of magazines, is now a tiny shelf with fewer shelves and maybe 15 feet long.

The computer book section that used to be fairly comprehensive is now filled with tawdry yellow potboiler books and precious little else.

The cafe is gone, taking away most people's reason to visit a bookstore and to buy books.

This is just about the entire computer books section. Nothing on Raspberry Pi. Nothing on Arduino. Nothing much on Linux. The vast majority is the awful yellow books.

I'm always up for good books. These are not good books.

I was in Books A Million a few weeks ago. I wanted to see if there were any Arduino or RaspBerry Pi magazines. It seemed that the magazine wall had shrunk from 40 feet of magazines to about 15 feet and fewer shelves. There were no Raspberry Pi, Arduino or any other similar magazines.

My thought is that without shelf space, the public will not see magazines. If they can't see them, they won't buy them. It becomes a vicious circle.

I have a subscription that I was given to one magazine. I looked a couple of times but it's such an irritation looking at PDFs or online articles that I gave up. They're just not fun to view on a laptop or a phone or a 7" tablet.

I can confidently predict that pretty well all magazines that went digital will go out of production within a short amount of time.

I took photos of other books I saw while browsing through Books-A-Million with my family.

I was too broke to buy any of them due to finances being tighter than usual this month. 🥺
