@aral yes, but do you know about those cute little tiny libraries you can make at your home so neighbours can lend and give a book? Those can do small things for people. We have a few of them around my city 😍

@martijn @aral that sounds a bit like the "ban plastic straws" approach to solving the climate crisis

@martijn @aral We have a Little Free Library set up on the farm.

@martijn @aral Little Free Libraries are great, sure. We should have more of them.

But they provide almost none of the things that real public libraries do, whether it's books you specifically want/need, reference materials, computers + internet, tax-filing resources, meeting spaces, air conditioning, or so much more.

@el_rubino @aral correct, it was just a little cute bandaid that I shared
