Still seeking and learning. Dabbling in photography and astrophotography, all images mine except where noted. No AI, ever. May also post about the current US hellscape as well as music, sci-fi and other lit, pop culture, and other obsessions.

Free Palestine. Just trying to be decent in a world gone mad.

The “book train” at the 42nd Street branch of the New York Public Library — a conveyor system that runs on 950 feet of vertical and horizontal tracks to deliver books from the underground stacks to the Rose Main Reading Room on the top floor. I was lucky enough to see it as part of a behind-the-scenes tour. More photos and video at the link in the comments.
