I believe you. I do not have any memory of this though. How do I resubscribe?

I did? That is news to me.

Nope, I don't.

Not sure if it is optimism, spite, or general fuck it, we ball attitude, but I planted some flowers today.

It sucks having to worry about my friends all over the world.

How does the process work now? Do I go to the shop and find it there?

Thank you for letting me have it.

Then I would like it.

I don't want to make you cry. So you decide if it is still available.

Would love the silver scarab if it isn't gone already.

Disgraceful. Disgusting. Unconstitutional.

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

Part of the reason the whole country hasn't been screaming about trans Kansans who drive being made criminals overnight is because there's so much else that's unconstitutional and horrifying.

But part of it is because it's happening to trans people.

it is so funny to me that of all the things i have ever posted about art, the most controversial take WITHOUT QUESTION is when i say that the best thing you can do if you want a career as an artist is to be KIND to your peers. folks get SO upset by that one, which i think is unfortunately telling

I just finished 'Wearing the Lion' by @wiswell.bsky.social last night. Let me give you two observations.

1 I seldom had this much fun with the Greek myths.

2 This book is so full of love! It makes you want to go and hug your children.

Highly recommended!

I was instantly thinking of the total blackout after Hurricane Maria.

I ask you to send me the original document rather than a Youtube reactor for the same reason I ask you not to send me a chewed sandwich.

The best sleep I got when I was forced to sleep upright (pregnant with sciatica) was in that glider rocking chair with foot rest. Might be something to think about if you are looking at having to do this long term.

That sucks! Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. We can Robert Frost through this together.

Bookshop.org Teams with Draft2Digital The online bookselling platform has partnered with the self-publishing company to allow self-published authors to sell e-books on its site.

For so long Amazon has had a monopoly on selling self-published books. Good to see that @bookshop.org is ready to compete in the space! www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...
