Reading my mom's letters with underground comics icon Howard Cruse
Reading her letters was the only way I could know her now. But opening the mail took me more than 30 years

That was such a good read, Glenny. Your mom's "wife-in-law" phrase makes me smile and I get a quick sense of her sensibility, you know? Your memoir-in-progress (I got one too) sounds very interesting and I look forward to seeing it in print in the not-too-distant future.

Even though the news is wretched, I’m glad we’re all up late.
Here’s a pic of the art cart my pal pushes through the hospital, dispelling gloom from every room she enters.

I can see some folks just want a funny recap. So let me assure you: that is part of this. I make lots and lots and lots of jokes about how absurd and gross these people are. Dark humor abounds.
I just also want to say something deeper, but I promise, lots of tasty candy with your veggies.

You can get your recaps elsewhere! I include some bizarre details from the inauguration, but focus on deeper analysis.
The whole event shows Trump and his tech bros coming together to make America even more unfair and scammy.

Only one of its subjects is still alive: the saxophonist Sonny Rollins, 94, who spoke about the historic image.
