Deadlines are my lifeline! Solo copyeditor (academic, scholarly, textbooks, trade/narrative nonfiction) and proofreader (any genre!). 🍩 appreciator. Enthusiastic New Jerseyan 🤌🏻 user. Trivial Democratic apparatchik. He/him.
I do my part when I see them:
a cartoon character pointing at a building with the word ha on it
Alt: From The Simpsons, a GIF of Nelson, the school bully, standing outside Springfield Elementary and pointing while emitting his signature "Ha-ha!" laugh. The camera is moving away from him, simulating his doing this at a moving vehicle.
