Thanks! And there's zero pressure. Always remember your local library loves you and wants to lend books out. Says the brother of a librarian.

ICE is trying to deport Native American people to Mexico. This one from the Mescalero Apache Tribe. That's right. People indigenous to the United States, tribal members. ICE is trying to remove them from the US. This is the second verified incident I've heard about. We were here 1st. #ICE

On Mescalero Apache Tribe letterhead: MESCALERO Apache Tribe P.O. Box 227 108 Central Avenue Mescalero, New Mexico 88340 TRIBE Office: (575) 464-4494 Fax: (575) 464-9220 STATEMENT BY PRESIDENT THORA WALSH-PADILLA ON IMMIGRATION INCIDENT INVOLVING A TRIBAL MEMBER As of 3:45 PM this afternoon, the Tribe verified only a single incident where an ICE January 23, 2025 Mescalero, NM Last night and throughout the day today, I received multiple calls from concerned Mescalero Apache Tribal Members in relation to rumors of incidents involving Tribal Members and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. agent questioned a Tribal Member in a public place in Ruidoso. This incident occurred yesterday. ICE agents began questioning a family standing in line in front of the Tribal member. The family was escorted outside. Then, an ICE agent still inside the public place approached the Tribal Member in Spanish. The Tribal Member responded by stating the Tribal Member spoke English. The ICE agent asked the Tribal Member for a passport. The Tribal Member presented a picture of a New Mexico Driver's License and a Tribal identification card. The ICE agent did not continue questions at this point and exited. While this is the only incident we have been able to verify. Tribal leadership is actively working with the New Mexico Congressional Delegation to ensure that the rights of Tribal Members are protected. To be safe, be aware of your surroundings, let family members/friends know where you are, and keep identification with you at all times. If possible, then carry multiple forms of identification (driver's license, state-issued identification card, Tribal identification card, Certificate of Indian Blood, etc.).

Histories of Mgo was important and one of my favorites of '24. Edwin Callihan's follow up novella, Strange Spells, from @filthyloot.bsky.social threatens to be just as special and loved.

Cover to novella Strange Spells by Edwin Callihan off Filthy Loot Press. Splitting bare branches lit by flash that leaves the branches behind splinters of white against the dark.

It was local only but I went to the FLCSs (6) in the area and promised prose zines to anyone that pre-ordered. Again, small returns (think I stapled up 60ish) but definitely tangible and more than if I hadn't.

Hahaha, yep. Man, that comix was good too. And Danzig absolutely wouldn't dig it unless you replaced Rollins with a wolf or something. Maybe a steer skull.

I always think it's funny how much folks shit on Rollins when he's made an entire career/life just being a genuine fan. "Love Black Flag? Be our singer!" "Love post-punk? Do that too!" "Never shut up? Never shut up!"

At the behest of @bustermoody.bsky.social I picked up The Road, GNized by Manu Larcenet. I'm grateful I did, partly because of this panel. Oof, that's beautiful.

Centered panel is stunningly framed by a dilapidated building split by light - A ragged figure desperately striking a shovel into the ground. Slight below - the light is reversed with the shovel chiseling through the dark. Smart stuff in this comix.

Everyone, The Dark continues to be one of the best series coming out. This short is no exception and you can check it out for free tomorrow. While you're there, buy some work if you're able. If not, shout from your closest corner how he's one of the best cartoonists working today.

This used to be true of a lot of writers, too. Lester Dent, who wrote most of the Doc Savage pulps, was paid around $750 per story. That’s almost $15K in today’s money. 12 times a year. During the Great Depression. He and his wife lived on a 40-ft schooner.

It's good to see Ol Pizzahead is just repackaging neg reviews of True Detective S4. Much like he did all of the writing for S1. He's a plagiarizing hack is what I'm saying.
