Just ordered @stewartbrand.bsky.social‘s new book “Maintenance: of Everything” - Can‘t wait to read another one of Stewart’s beautiful works of kindness and thought.

ptreyesbooks.com/book/9781953...
A book that seems as though it were broken and put back together with Gold in the kitsugi style. In the Broken sections are pieces of art which include a sailboat, the Statue of Liberty being built, a map of South America and Africa, three circles overlapping like a Venn diagram, The diagram of a boat, and a chart of astrological symbols. On the bottom left is the title of the book “maintenance: of everything“ and the author‘s name, Stewart Brand. The book is a pleasing cream color with blue ink.

I’ve been immersing myself in 1920s popular culture for a new project I’m working on. Love these things:
There was a popular hoax that a bird called the Fatu-Liva laid dice-like eggs.
The Krazy Kat Speakeasy in DC was a safe haven for LGBTQIA and folx like William Dorsey Swann, queen of drag
A nest filled with four Fatu-Liva bird eggs - curiously shaped and colored just like dice A man holding a tray of drinks climbs a ladder up to a treehouse filled with fancy people Two images on the left is William Dorsey Swann in a white cotton and linen dress dancing with a straw hat on. And the photo to the right William is holding a fan and seems to be dancing with a gentleman holding a top hat and they are caught mid dance. Patrons at The Kat in July 1921: Cleon Throckmorton (right), Kathryn Mullin (left), Inez Hogan (middle). The chalk-written message above the door, "All soap [sic] abandon ye who enter here!", refers to the warning over the entrance to Hell in Dante's Inferno.

On top of some letterhead that says Chateau Marmont in residence and name, Cameo Wood, is a fake $100 bill that says in pools we trust and on top of that is another small letter with the following text A Hex Upon The Horter Lord Dillon Porter, leech of lease and key, We scraw thy name where none but Fools may see. Thou named the Scottish King, thou hapless man, And summoned us against our wills t'this land. May attic stairs reject thy wicked tread, No doctor's touch shall heal what Fate hath planned. Thy matcha lattes, may they spoil- milk sour, With transplants fleeing from thy moldy door. The health inspector strikes at witching hour, And Yelp shall echo "Never eat here more." Tet Duncan, dearest mutt, draw finaf breath, His bowl unficked, his eyes a glassy plea. No bark shall break the silence of his death, Tust phantom howls from under lock and key. We Sisters, three, we watch and never leave, Each breath you draw, we curse, and do pot grieve. And underneath that is some text that says love you, Cameo Lala. Cameo, Mikhael Tara Garver, Diana Williams, and Bryan Bishop make faces in front of a cool mural.

Okay. I guess it’s just a weird wrapper and the ‘real’ front page is inside!? What’s going on with newspapers!? I know they aren’t okay but wow.
Opening the first page, on the left is more advertising for the hard rock casino and the right page looks like a normal LA times front page.

Kinda wild that the entire front page of the printed version of the LA Times is an ad. I’ve never seen that before.
Photo of a newspaper with the title “Los Angeles Times” and a full page advertisement for hard rock casino. There is no news on the front page. Directly underneath The New York Times and small print is the word “advertisement” the ad proceeds below.

Another beautiful day in York, England, enjoying the city walls, a statue of Constantine, and little dogs.
Sunset over the city walls of York, which were constructed in the 1300s. The walls are old and Cregge and full of stones that may have been cut nearly a century prior. The sunset is a little glimmer of Orange amidst an otherwise blue sky. An old Cregge 13th century wall with bear trees on one side and a long sloping grassy meadow on the other with some buildings. The walk is about 3 feet wide and the photo is taken in a small cut out area. A green statue of a man sitting on a throne, holding a sword. He’s on a A.D. D274 to 337. Proclaimed Roman emperor in York A.D. 306. Behind him is a massive cathedral made of the same stone as the platform. There’s scaffolding on part of the church. Too tiny and very sweet dogs are looking upward at their owner who is off camera.

My small sixteen year old cat does eat a whole chicken. Takes about a week, but he’s pretty happy about it.
A black cat with a few white hairs and pale, green eyes sticks his tongue out and manages to lick half of his face. He wears a red kimono fabric collar loosely around his neck with a small tag with the letter S. He has very long ears and is incredibly beautiful.
