HB police and city council will not intercede if he does anything violent. They are in support of these practices. Be smart, be safe, stay home and watch a cute movie with puppies.

As we recover from the Eaton Fire, my Etsy shop is still my only source of income. These poppy shirts are all screen printed by hand in the closet of our temporary apartment! www.etsy.com/listing/4312...

Maus author Art Spiegelman’s next comic will be about Gaza, in collaboration with Joe Sacco. He thinks he will struggle to find a publisher in the United States. “I’ll finish this thing or die trying.”

Art Spiegelman Won’t Shrink Back From Controversy
The artist has illustrated more than one contentious New Yorker cover in his career, chronicled in a new film, and his next project will be no less gutsy.

Hey book lovers! Support your local library, of course. Also! Cool news! @bookshop.org has free shipping July 8-11. They also now sell ebooks, which is an excellent development. AND if you sign up for their email, there are periodic boook/ebook deals & I've snapped up many fine books that way. 💚📖🔥📘

Today, on Shirley Jackson’s birthday, let’s all marvel at one of the greatest opening paragraphs ever written (from THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE)
“No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met nearly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.”

I misread this as Megalopolis at first and her expression still holds true. Yes, I know Megalopolis supposedly features dialogue but maybe it would be better without audio.

I still demand the Christmas Season (TM) cede its mid-November aggression, but learning there is a Terry Pratchett holiday story I haven't read did put me in a more festive mood. #GNUTerryPratchett terrypratchett.com/arnold-the-b...

This is Archie. He said he was a chiropractor as a joke. This guy believed him and now he's in too deep. 13/10 really committed to the bit
a tan and white corgi stands on top of a man's back. the man is laying face-down on a chiropractor's table. you can tell by the look on the corgi's face that this practical joke has gone way too far, but he's too afraid to admit it to anyone.

Also: If you don't have money to buy my (or anyone's) books, and you live in the anglosphere, before you pirate them, try to get them from your local library instead. They have it or can get it, they pay for the books, and in many places writers get paid for their books being lent. Everyone wins!

Finished "The Information: a history, a theory, a flood" and it's funny how author Gleick undercuts one mathematician's ego posturing. But his name is Norbert Wiener, this guy desperately needs whatever cred he can get.

Bluesky is funny because I can’t recall any other platform where its growth is explicitly tied to the collective hate for one person.
