Don’t understand why seeing my favourite authors’ books on display feels so unexpected - they’re bestselling books in a bookstore. That’s where books live. It’s probably weirder for them to see me in their home. Anyways here’s @robertjbennett.bsky.social’s new A Trade of Blood & it’s delightful.
A tall shelf in a bookstore with a sign that reads New Foction with four rows of books underneath it.A close-up shot of the same bookshelves, focusing on two purple books which say A Trade Of Blood on them.

This week in local Facebook drama: Local mushroom foraging group reports that poisonous mushrooms were sold as edible over the weekend at a harvest fest market. The market organizer and stall-holder, a VERY amateur forager, decided she was going to sell mushrooms she found.

My Emmy hot take is once an actor wins for a role, they shouldn't be able to win again for that role. We already know they're good as that character, now give someone else a turn.

Kingfisher 🪶 🐡
Photo of a small painting being held by a hand for scale with a small paintbrush visible resting on the table behind it. The painting is of a female belted kingfisher, a dark blue and white bird with a long pointed beak evolved for catching fish. This bird has the belt of orange-red feathers which gives it its name and indicates it's a female. The painting is soft and a little dreamy with an out of focus grey-blue background.

I think everyone should see this incredible picture of Dolly Parton: it’s by Stacie Williams (asterosperma on Instagram) and it’s called The Queen of Appalachia
A stunning screenprint image in a style which is part folk art, part religious icon. Dolly Parton sits on a throne-like wooden chair, surrounded by garlands of flowers and leaves. Orange butterflies (I think they are monarchs?) hover around her head. Her hair is huge and golden, and she is wearing a long, sweeping orange gown, which is turned up over her knee to show off her brown knee length high heeled boots. Two black bear cubs play around her, one on the floor and one in her lap. Dolly stares calmly at the viewer. Her right hand is raised in benediction, and in her left she holds a ripe strawberry which she is feeding to one of the bear cubs.

Hummingbirds.
A four panel comic. In panel 1, a rufous hummingbird flies down toward a large hummingbird feeder with as many as 6 holes on top. He thinks "The humans put up a new feeder!" In panel 2, he lands on the feeder and gazes down at it. He thinks "It's huge. Many of us could feed here at once." In panel 3, we see a close up view of the hummingbird, and he's thinking "This could end the ancient rivalries. Usher in an era of peace. Interesting." In panel 4, an Anna's hummingbird hovers over the feeder and says "Hey, can I have some necta-" and the rufous hummingbird says "No."
