Put the needle on the record and watch it barely move.

Read Dr. Nicole A. Cooke’s work discussing the development and implementation of the Spectrum Doctoral Fellowship Program.

Think of  AILA, APALA, BCALA, CALA, REFORMA, aaaaaand JCLC!!

Consider the work of the ALA  Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Task Force.

Think of own work. Realize it could just as well be published, as-is, today.

Think of other hashtag for this post #notateench.

Ugh. #moodrightnow:

NOTE: #damndamndiems are opposites of #hurrayoftheday. #damndamndiems may also appear as #circadiansideeye, #teethsuckdaily, or the always-in-style #cmonson (originated by Ed Lover, made extra-good by Shawn and Gus.)
