"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—" You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

Today, I got my printed copy of the Oxford Handbook of Punk Rock. To give some perspective, my five-year-old daughter was a newborn when I turned in the first draft. It's been available online for a few years, but still exciting to see in hardback!

First sighting of The Oxford Handbook of Punk Rock in the wild! Congratulations to @ginanarchy.bsky.social, @georgemckay.bsky.social, and all who contributed chapters!
