Frey: "You cannot drag pregnant women through the snow. You're not allowed to take teenagers out of their car and detain them when they are in fact American citizens. That is against the law in every state. That is against our US Constitution."

I did this yesterday. It wasn't trivial, but the experience (I used login.gov and took a photo of my driver's license) was quite well designed - though it was some work to find my VINs and my connected TV device ID.

It’s #2026; a good year to go talk with some rocks and get that deep, underground, geological perspective. If you know someone who likes rocks, Talking Rocks and Minerals is for them. bookshop.org/beta-search?... - - - #geology #rocks #gems #childrensbook #kidlitart

You can tell that LotR was written by an academic because Gandalf disappears for like 20 years doing research to answer a single question.

Am I the kind of children’s book illustrator who searches for my book in local bookstores and sneaks it up to the featured shelf? I am. I am that kind. Go check your local bookshop, (like #bookpassage in Corte Madera) for Talking Rocks and Minerals! #childrensbookillustration

A holiday coloring page, if you like to color. May the Great Star Owl bring presents to all your yetis!

If you need some last-minute gifts, books are the very best thing you can buy. Support your local indie bookstore, and give your friends and family a gift that will keep them warm and entertained during the holidays!

i don't think this is even a real statistical anomaly anymore. it seems like there's someone in the crowd at every mass shooting who has been through it before. this doesn't have to be our shared cultural experience.

I talked to Columbia Journalism Review about the future of media. www.cjr.org/feature/visi...

Know your rights. Protect your neighbors. New York is — and always will be — a city for all immigrants.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

JUST IN: California voters have approved a ballot measure to redraw the state's congressional map to favor Democrats, marking the party's biggest victory to date in a national battle over redistricting ahead of the 2026 midterms.

On this beautiful morning in Astoria, I cast my ballot for our city and our future. I hope you will too.

My latest newsletter is about one of my writing pet peeves. I *hate* it when a novel gives its main character a personal epiphany on page 300 that: a) could have happened on page 30 instead bc it was already clear b) is ridic embarrassingly obvious and surface-level buttondown.com/charliejane/...

I suspect that the techbros who read the SFF stories about robots rebelling decided that the moral of the story was "design them so they won't" and they think that's actually possible and desirable.

It was super fun to be able to launch our new Pose feature in Adobe Fresco at MAX! Pose lets you turn ANY 2d image into a virtual puppet, so you can push, pull and animate it frame by frame. Check it out! #adobemax #adobefresco #animation

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

I lived with my dad when I was very young and he didn’t apply for food stamps or free school lunches, though we qualified. So, I went hungry. It was awful. I begged neighbors for saltine crackers. I can say it was the worst time of my life. Children shouldn’t go hungry. Restore SNAP benefits.

Good morning! Shhhh. Karl is still sleeping
