Some ways to help re: SNAP and the shutdown. If you're able, consider setting up a recurring donation to local food banks/food pantries. Other options are volunteering, pointing folks toward info on those resources, and helping w/transportation to& from.

MARY

Anders: to celebrate, they go to that trendy new Ethiopian-German fusion restaurant Anders: where they savor the spicy, savory tang of bratwurst lentils Anders: remember, don't fear the vertical lift of a salad

Jesus motherfucking Christ Bet we're next

Anders: mary star trek is super excited to discover some new evidence that 17th century lady author Cassandra Uppington might actually have had a correspondence with sir lionel bathsoap Anders: "wow!" she says Anders: "this is like discovering a stable wormhole in the delta quadrant!"

Barker: you wanna explain it to us, steve? King: King: King: King: joe Joe Hill: it's a discourse, dad

Anders: and see, that decolonizes the academy by recontextualizing the metanarrative King: right, right King: see, this King: this all makes sense to me King: i totally understand it Barker: oh really? do you? Barker: good news, everyone Barker: the discourse understander has logged on

Anders: now she knows that Baron Bartholemew von Blatherscott was actually the Lady Tuppence McWashingmachine writing under a pseudonym King: of course! King: it all makes sense!

I just got this book and hell yes

Anders: but was in fact penned by the daughter of his sister's maid's mistress's governess, Madam Bogwollop-pepperpie-Smith-Smythe-Smithe Anders: in a queering of narrative expectations King: wow! King: that is a pickle!

Anders: Mary Star Trek is studying 17th century English literature Anders: and she's in a real pickle because she believes, contrary to popular academic consensus, that "Diary of a Continental Fop, As Told by a Native of Hispaniola" was not actually written by Sir Reginald Tablelamp-Sinclair

Alan Moore: [appearing in a clap of thunder] FOOLISH MORTALS! Anders: the grand magus! Anders: grand magus, how do you do magic? Moore: i have constructed a subterranean ritual space below the floor Anders: what do you do there? Moore: get high, mostly Fitz-James O'Brien: YEAH O'Brien: YEAAAAH!

Anders: you don't do liminal space offerings? how do you do magic then? Crowley: i eat a big block of hashish and fuck Manly Wade Wellman: i put a mercury head dime inside a chicken Grant Morrison: i definitely do NOT use the AI Morrison: not anymore

Anders: of course you all know how to do magic Aleister Crowley: you bet i do Anders: you leave offerings at a liminal space and set your intentions Crowley: Victor Neuburg: that's not how you had us do it, aleister Crowley: shut up NERDburg

King: why would you need parents to be less annoying, joe? Hill: uhhh King: you shouldn't talk about your mother that way, joe Hill:

Anders: sometimes a relationship w your parents is like being on the conveyer belt in the classic movie Toy Story 3 Anders: but what if you could connect to your parents with magic? Hill: you mean magically make them less annoying? Anders: Anders: no i mean like as a mutual interest Hill: Hill: oh

YESSSS Aww Steve and Joe

I can't tell whether the Graun article referenced Wiki or vice versa. In either case I consider them about early unreliable, lol. McCrum never sourced anything for the Observer and Wiki had hallmarks of AI hallucinations long before AI: it wasn't an encyclopedia, it just tried to sound like one.

𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗞 𝗥𝗢𝗧𝗛𝗞𝗢, Untitled, (Red Black Orange and Pink on Yellow), 1954. Oil on canvas. 230 x 139,7 cm. 📸 jnuh submitted to me on Tumblr and taken at the Tate modern © 1998 Kate Rothko Prizel & Christopher Rothko / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York

If you sourced this from the Guardian article, this is a mistake. "The feminine readers who control the destinies of so many novels" is a phrase from Harper and Row's rejection of Sister Carrie by Dreiser. The Wiki article on the cover artist is also rather dismissive and sexist.
