Library, Monday
Tip was on a bit of a history kick today at the library, thanks to a book her mother had sent her full of historical fiction about American teenage girls -- most of them girls of color. She'd stayed up much too late the night before to finish it -- the second to last story was about the Black Panther movement, and it wasn't like she was going to just put it down almost finished after that one, even if it was two AM.
So it was a slightly groggy Tip at the circulation desk today, sipping from a very large Perk to-go cup and reading about the golden age of piracy, the Yukon gold rush, and the 1968 democratic convention. Fandom's library had some fascinating first-hand accounts of all three -- including at least one of someone who was involved in all three.
Time travelling immortals took all the mystery out of historical research.
