“But Superman, stopping that country from invading another was politically fraught” “THEY WERE GOING TO KILL PEOPLE!!!!” James Gunn made a movie that says this: people worrying about politics are not the heroes. The people trying to stop mass murder are the heroes. That’s that on that

My latest books cartoon for @theguardian.com

Title: Choose your seat in the literary festival event tent.

Image: lines of chairs set out in a tent, a stage at the front has two more chairs on it.

The chairs are colour-coded and labelled
1. Awkwardly close
2. Too far away
3. Good view / can't hear
4. Good sound / can't see
5. In a cold draught
6. Behind a giant
7. Between a chatter and a shusher
8. Very creaky chair
9. Great seat / wrong event

A single yellow chair is labelled:
10. Just right!

Not very long ago we believed we were the smartest generation in history, and it feels like overnight we just accepted that people are getting dumber and there’s nothing we can do about it. But it doesn’t have to be like this. We have to return reading to the center of culture.

We went from “what good are the humanities?” to “suddenly, no one can read” in about a year, and the answer to the first question is the disinformation and lack of critical thinking you see all around you. *That* is why you need the humanities. This is what they prevent.

Here’s the deal: Make reading your hobby this year. It’ll expand your mind, grow your perspective, and if you grab a library card, you’ll be supporting authors too (yes, in places like the UK, AU, NZ, and Canada, libraries pay authors!). Reading isn’t just fun—it’s a win for everyone.

This week between Christmas & New Years is my favorite of the year. There’s something about the cozy factor of it all. Reading, watching movies, baking cookies, staying in PJs. It’s wonderful. I bought an online watercolor class yesterday & have been loving it. I painted this this evening!!

It’s been a good week of resting, reading, writing, visiting a Japanese book store in Austin and going crazy in their stationary section, taking my dog on chilly morning walks, drinking countless cups of green tea, and watching Wicked twice.
