Becky Briggs Becker (she/her)OK OK I will share this bit that sums up how archives conference travel ended: “If I had a nickel for every time I found a bolt in my tire, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice.” #archivistproblems #thatarchiveslife
Also do I even want to talk about how the last couple of days have been going? #archivistproblems #thatarchiveslife
I attended a digital forensics workshop today. I know I may have learned digital preservation basics 12-15 years ago. The fundamentals are the same. The message has changed: “You don’t HAVE to do it all. What is most important stuff to save?” Amen!! #thatarchiveslife #archivistproblems
I'm doing OK! There is a reason why I have a small collection of This is Fine memorabilia including a small Question Dog in my office. The meme represents, uh, a lot. 😅 #thisisfine #thatarchivistlife #archivistproblems
"Like, you'd think I'd know if I had two mural panels that were 7 feet tall in our storage space. But I've been surprised before." #thatarchiveslife #archivistproblems
"Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb!" is how I feel when I have NO IDEA where to put this box of nitrate negatives. They've already deteriorated but technically I cannot just throw them in the regular trash. #thatarchiveslife #archivistproblems

Simon Mackley 🌈It's a beautiful, sunny Sunday afternoon - so naturally I'm sat on a delayed train reading up on metadata standards 😛 #archivist #archivistproblems
You'd think working in archives would make organising your stuff for a house move easier, but nope. I just know I'm going to end up with an extremely cursed box like "stationary and tupperware, also hairdryer" 🙃
