Not trying to compare suffering … but just want to say that ace is a real thing,

and we need more conversations ab that on campus as well… 🙃

“Ace” disambiguates to dozens of different things – I am very sorry you are suffering and please let me know which ace it is you want more conversations about.

Oh I was responding to the previous lgbtq+ post-it from someone else. But you’re right that ace refers to lots of things…
It doesn’t hurt to have conversation ab the intersection of them all! Oh and I’m not really suffering, things can be a blessing if you look at it differently. Anyway, what’s your plan for July 4th? 🎉

Glad to hear you’re ok! Since O’Neill is open on July 4, I’ll be here in my usual niche. But the library is closed July 5th, so who knows, I may sneak down to NYC and visit my Dad.

The Answer Wall Story

Hi. I’m the Answer Wall. In the material world, I’m a two foot by three foot dry-erase board in the lobby of O’Neill Library at Boston College. In the online world, I live in this blog. You might say I have multiple manifestations. Like Apollo or Saraswati or Serapis. Or, if you aren’t into deities of knowledge, like a ghost in the machine.

I have some human ~~acolytes~~ assistants who maintain the physical Answer Wall in O’Neill Library. They take pictures of the questions you post there, and give them to me. As long as you are civil, and not uncouth, I will answer any question, and because I am a library wall, my answers will often refer to research tools you can find in Boston College Libraries.

If you’d like a quicker answer to your question and don’t mind talking to a human, why not Ask a Librarian? Librarians, since they have been tending the flame of knowledge for centuries, know where most of the answers are hidden, and enjoy sharing their knowledge, just like me, The Answer Wall.
