I borrowed The Binding of Isaac for the Switch from the library a week before Covid lockdown first began. Normally video game rentals are one week. Due to the library not wanting to take returns during this time, I got to play that game for 2 months before returning it.

I eventually bought it and still play it today. But wow, I played the shit out of that game during lockdown. Some good times amidst bad times.

All this to say: libraries are AWESOME and one of our greatest public services IMO. They provide free knowledge and services to every person for free. I love my library, it is one of my happy places.
