Good news, she's back. She's worried I'm going to move again. Or maybe worried that she's not winning the race for Most Mom Lap Time? Who knows.

The Internet wants this book, and I want to give it to them.
A square of 9 individual graphics. There is text that reads Nice Jewish Wolf in bisexual flag colors. Images, in clockwise order, are a fat white woman with Betty Page bangs in a white tshirt and jean jacket, a Rosh Hashanah plate with apples and honey, the Chicago Bean, a white man with long green hair, an illustration of two people kissing against a graffiti wall, and two grey wolves snuggling.

Jake is not on here to brag on themself so I must hype them:
This book is SO FUCKING GOOD I DON'T KNOW HOW TO BE NORMAL ABOUT IT. IT WILL CHANGE YOU.

Catherine Called Birdy hive, get ready. Jewish History nerds, get ready. Queers who had That One Friendship... Well, you get it.
Background graphic is a collage of shtetl-based images. Deal announcement reads: Ellen Cormier at Dial Books for Young Readers has bought world rights to Princess of the Shtetl, Stonewall Honoree Jake Arlow's Middle grade historical novel about an 11-year-old girl who dreams of being a scholar, but is forced into a child marriage when the Tsar's army begins kidnapping Jewish boys, told in diary entries in the tradition of Catherine Called Birdy. Publication is planned for spring 2027; Jim McCarthy at Dystel, Goderich and Bourret did the two book deal.

This is Pepper. She needs a home where her job is weighted blanket and not terrorizing every other cat in the house + making them ill. She's very territorial but extremely sweet with (adult) humans.
Do you live within driving distance of Houston + need a solo lap cat? I will bring her to you!

It was this rose goblin's 9th birthday yesterday so this morning I let her take as long as her heart desired for her morning ear scratches. I might be late to work.

So glad this absolute weirdo lives in our house.

This stray was NOT chipped but if anyone in the HTX or Texas triangle area wants to pretend she's their beloved family pet and come reclaim her, I'm open to that.

Did you know the Carrigan's Christmasland trilogy is complete and would make a great holiday gift for Christmas OR Hanukkah, because they take place at a Jewish-owned Christmas tourist trap?

Your local indie* would be happy to order them for you this weekend.

Do you watch Hallmark movies and wonder when the girls will just kiss already? Do you think Hallmark needs more Jews?
