Oh yeah, le n, that sounds excessive, but better than the no-info way of things?
Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

Because books.
(I think that they could inherit it from a man, but couldn't buy it themselves, or something like that.)
That sounds right, I think.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I read that before I asked, Tom. But after that, the article notes she also supported interracial marriage, sent congrats to Douglass against the advice of Anthony, etc. She seemed to be really offensive about jockeying for position (but also claimed black men already had the vote), which is why I wonder what the impact was, because the stuff she was pro put her ahead of the pack--but if she damaged the lives of black people then it makes more sense.
There are black women ditching "official" feminist movements because they can't get what Stanton apparently took for granted:
Speaking on behalf of black women, she stated that not allowing them to vote condemned African American freedwomen "to a triple bondage that man never knows," that of slavery, gender, and race.
That's why I ask.

ISTG. I had six hours to do stuff today including write a cover letter, and have used up five of them doing nothing! This is why I'm no good at staycation -- I am way too good at procrastinating.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
My tasks today are to unpack suitcases (ugh), go through mail (not ugh, but boring), and work on putting together a scrapbook of my France trip (fun!) I think I'll do the mail first, just to get it out of the way and have something done. I've made a rule that I can't start working on scrapbook stuff until all my suitcases are unpacked.

Bow before my librarian-fu: The patron approached wanting to know the name of a "country singer who died recently of throat cancer." Said singer had a song about falling out of bed and everybody laughing. He played the guitar and wore glasses.
The correct answer? Robin Gibb. (No, I never found out what the song about falling out of bed might have been.)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
That is mighty mighty librarian-fu, flea.

Ann, that's a ferret.
The correct answer? Robin Gibb. (No, I never found out what the song about falling out of bed might have been.)
The song was almost certainly "I Started a Joke." Although falling out of bed, hurting his head was from a different part of the song than when he started to cry, which started the whole world laughing.
