Best book of 2026 & 1944. Go get it!
Had someone pick this up from my shop today. As a reminder apropos of *gestures* I turned the 1944 Simple Sabotage Manual the U.S. provided operatives in occupied Europe to help citizenry resist fascism and made it into a easy (duplex) print zine. Its Free.

I think this week is a good week to stop doom scrolling.
Bad people are very loud at the moment and I am not sure if the people who could do anything about it are
1) quiet because they are not doing anything or
2) because they do not want to give the bad people any information.

Funniest thing I've seen this month: The pope receives a Cubs jersey from a church head from Chicago.
The pope being an American, already had a favorite baseball team, namely the White Socks, and you can see it on his face.

Time to meet CLAWPUNK’s purrfectly chaotic cat, Larry! 💥 He claims to be the meow-yor of a town that doesn’t exist.
The only thing in life which brings Larry joy is the pogo stick he received as a kitten. 🐾 bit.ly/46OIoA4
