If you like reading THE MACABRE or think a story about a Black artist who reams up with a HOT agent from the British Museum to find and tame cursed magical paintings is your jam then you should buy the book because a little birdie told me we might be open to a sequel. www.amazon.com/Macabre-Delu...

An unusual item in my collection, Mister Black’s Secret by Catherine Barr. At first it seems like an early example of cheezburger speech but it was actually written in a shortlived teaching alphabet called ITA.

Here are some more pages - this is the dramatic climax where Mr. Black frees his friend the skunk from a trap.

More detailed article about it! Most of the people I’ve spoken to who had personal experience with it say it was terrible and screwed up their reading/writing for years or life. bsky.app/profile/hedl...

As @evanbernick.bsky.social wrote back in January, "When the Supreme Court eventually weighs in on the order, we will not learn whether it is constitutional. We will learn whether the Supreme Court is prepared to follow the Constitution."

Took about 20 years. And I never thought a book about enslavers using deputization to give themselves policing power would be relevant to our times. But we are where we are. My book, White Power: Policing American Slavery, is now available for preorder. a.co/d/29c7EIP

I do a comic about ornithological vocabulary for every issue of the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's wonderful Living Bird magazine. Here's the latest one, featuring the American Bittern.

If you can help, please do!

Spooky season approaches, so I'm going to repost some of my Halloween comics from years past.

Hen & Mouse Ink and gouache on Fabriano Medioevalis, approximately 95 × 64 mm.

I’d be remiss if I didn’t point out that this is non-profit which only began in the past year; if you’re a DOJ alumni, please consider joining our network, and if you’re not, please consider a donation. It’s going to be a long battle.

I was today years old when I learned there is an organization (run by a group of ex-DOJ people) dedicated to supporting "current and recent DOJ employees facing attacks by this administration." www.thejusticeconnection.org/resources/

And they have a very detailed tracker/timeline called "A List of the Trump Administration’s Attacks on DOJ" detailing several dozen actions/occurrences from the past few months: www.thejusticeconnection.org/doj-tracker/

“Father Mapple is in some strange, almost obscure way, a kind of negative double for Ahab.... he is the person who wants to bring a sense of proportion. Father Mapple kind of supplies a warning and a possible lens for a reading of the entire novel" - Retired Prof/novelist Charles Baxter on Moby Dick

The link was broken for me but I found it on YouTube. Saving it for tonight after work. :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oQs...

The Capitol this morning is a ghost-town. Why? Because House Republicans would rather shut down the government than reverse the devastating cuts to healthcare for working families.

Who else is still streaming? 🙂

ILLINOIS — BROADVIEW POLICE CHIEF ON ICE: “I was shocked. I’ve never been spoken to by a fellow law enforcement officer in such a way.” ICE is routinely gassing cops and negatively impacting the community as their detention facility faces protests.

YES! THIS on GenAI! Please read this absolutely splendid piece of writing that had me cheering, a little bit weepy, and writing in the margins: "An extraordinary amount of money is spent by the AI industry to ensure that acquiescence is the only plausible response. But marketing is not destiny."
