also this tribute to the compassionately sororal eye of Helen Hokinson by @summerpierre.bsky.social is really delightful
my parents had a few @newyorker.com cartoon Treasuries lying around so I sort of grew up with Helen and Gahan rather than Kirby & Lee

Summer Pierre on Helen Hokinson
Her version of the middle-aged matron was a gentle innocent who faced the world with an unself-conscious enthusiasm.

A delightful cartoon from @summerpierre.bsky.social:
I don’t know who needs to hear this but here goes:
In high school my art teacher told me I didn’t know how to draw because cartooning wasn’t real art.
I have wanted to be in The New Yorker Magazine since I was 19. I’m 53 and this happened yesterday:

4 years ago my 12 year old daughter, newly vaccinated, healthy and energetic got the Omicron wave of COVID and has never fully recovered. For some, Long COVID is a long but temporary experience, for us it is ongoing. She turns 16 in 2 weeks. We are still here and still learning.

Years ago, after doing some deep searching for vintage children's book art, I found a collector who had acquired most of the original artwork of J. P. Miller's The Brave Little Tailor, a LGB from 1953. Fantastic work. Here's the cover.
The original art is in the following 🧵...

The evil and idiocy was foreseeable but I admit I didn't quite expect how childish American fascism would be
President Trump posted what appeared to be an A.I.-generated video on social media showing him wearing a crown and flying a jet labeled “King Trump” that dumps brown liquid on protesters. He shared the video on Saturday, the same day that protesters participated in mass “No Kings” demonstrations.

Convinced Stephen Miller, Russell Vought, Peter Thiel and others are just showing Trump AI videos in his morning briefings to keep him stumping in the direction they want him to. Med beds.
Trump: "Portland, I mean -- every time I look at that place it's burning down. There are fires all over the place. When a store -- there are very few of them left -- but when a store owner rebuilds a store they build it out of plywood. They don't put up storefronts anymore. They just put wood up."

Good morning. It's Friday!
Thoughts for today:
1) Reoccurring dream: finding a secret room, or wing, or basement of a house.
2) The House of Dies Drear is a fantastic and beautiful book.
3) Scooby Doo also once investigated a haunted skyscraper.
4) Keep trying. Be loud. Be very very loud.
