It's #BannedBooksWeek, y'all By now, we don’t need to tell you about the alarming rise of book bans and challenges sweeping the country, specifically targeting books about folks in the margins. (It’s probably not a coincidence that it’s happening right alongside the rise of fascism, you know?)

a banner image of a book with a rainbow coming out of it, with text surrounding it reading "fight fascism, defend books, october 4-10 is banned books week"

Here's the thing: most books that are banned don't make the lists that get circulated each #BannedBooksWeek. If you're a book creator and your book gets banned, please respond to this post with your book and its buy link on bookshop.org. That way we can support indies and banned books 💛

“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

Fam we went to this new, hip, swanky Indian restaurant in town. Every entree were below $20. All the cocktails? $12. They have a collab IPA with a local brewery. The mid-level spice was actually spicy (as a Spice Lover), the naan was $3 for four giant, fluffy pieces I legit almost cried

Every AI generated event poster is incredibly ugly, but I do think it's interesting that that LLMs have essentially created a house style for flyers, especially one so maximalist and ugly and in contravention of of all convention and best practices established in graphic design over centuries.
