weeping over the atrocious renovations the Cleveland public library branches have done. we used to have gleaming wood panel and fireplaces and original stone structure with gothic charm! now it's all flat, ugly, boxy grey shit. zero character. ugly.

sitting in the second floor lounge of a building I have literally spent the past four years in. there was on semester during my junior year that all of my classes were scheduled here, and I came here literally every single day. I've written papers, parts of my book, and journal entries here. I've watched movies here. once, I watched a snow storm pelt the grass while waiting for a night class. so many of the books on my shelf at home came directly from the shelves here.

didn't realize I'd become so emotionally attached to a building in college.

it’s that time of the year when you have to squint at everything to make sure it ain’t a bug

the true mark of the start to summer: gunshots after dark and kids playing on the street all night
