Everything is awful, but I'm really encouraged and amazed by the amount of community organizing I've seen. There's so many people on our side, who share values and ideals, who put in the work. People look out for each other. We're seeing the worst of our society, but we're also seeing the best.

This is really not much less than some authors would get from someone buying their book on a discount from The Evil Bookshop. Never feel bad about getting that book from the library! We want you to do it! Most of use use/have used a library a lot! We still get paid!
Also, if you borrow an author's book from a library in the UK, that author gets more than 12 pence per loan in Public Lending Rights. Any author can earn up to £6,600 per year this way.

For context: I published my 15th book last year. The advance I received for it was considerably less than £6,600.
Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.

Earliest known photograph of a snowman, ca. 1854, taken by Mary Dillwyn (most likely in Wales).

Painted in acryla gouache for a limited edition Mondo poster (I still have a handful of the numbered, signed artist proofs if you'd like one).

You cannot overstate how startling it is to see a politician just say the thing with clarity and poise. No fearful hemming. No overwrought qualifying down til it’s meaningless. No lingering sense that there is a loyalty to a donor class or an ideology of stasis that they’d never admit to.
Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

New: Yesterday the Administration filed notice to appeal a recent decision in federal court which halted actions to dismantle the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

IMLS grants are still in place while the court hears the appeal. The appeals process will take time. 1/2

Peter Yazzie is a Diné (Navajo) man who was 'detained' by ICE in Phoenix on Jan. 12, yet another Native American who has been targeted. ICE agents saw his US ID +proof that he is a Diné citizen, but snatched him anyway.
Here's a video of him speaking about his experience youtube.com/shorts/WOATv...

I keep thinking about the toxic, pervasive mythology of "rugged individualism" as a driving force in American culture, and how the collective efforts in the Twin Cities right now are proof that the only way through hard times is together, as a community.
