Julia's last book made me realize I had been functioning through lowgrade depression for a number of years (complimentary).

It’s creek season! I need some advice. (But first a comic from 2018 that my brother still razzes me about but I think is completely acceptable) I’m looking for water shoes w/ tread, durability & can be worn for light hiking and rock and tree scramblin’

Happy we have been an early witness to such greatness. Also happy my ancient car got us there in one piece.
In March 2015 I was driving with Griffin Newman and @juliawertz.bsky.social to @joegarden.bsky.social's birthday party when Griffin casually mentioned a Star Wars podcast he was working on with @davidlsims.bsky.social and it makes me so happy that a decade later The Two Friends are in the NYer

One of my favorite then/now from Tenements, Towers & Trash because not much has really changed? The 1910 one has broadway show posters, coke ads, clothing shops and food in the storefronts. 2015 is basically the same (conceptually) except no food shops, and everything is uglier
