"Mr. President, are you happy to be starving Americans?" is one of only two questions I want to hear out of any reporter's mouth until this ends.
The other one is, "Scale of 5-10, how bad are the Epstein files for you? ...we already know it isn't less than five."

Please do! And please keep an eye out in Ypsi for a friend of mine (Common Books on Insta, I don't think he's here yet) -- he's renovating a former Chinese restaurant out that way & opening his used bookstore some time next year. He has some very cool titles

TL;DR - I hope you'll try again, of course 🙂 -- but if not, I understand. Either way, I appreciate you taking the time to check us out

I'll double check the cart & checkout pages to make sure that note didn't get nerfed in the latest update. Thanks for letting me know!

We ship nationwide! The "local only" things are pickup & home delivery. But we definitely ship. There should've been a note at the top of the checkout page: you'll have to either scroll down to see all the shipping options, or confirm your shipping address. Then the options should show up for you :)

*Ruby's fine! She's just a LOT, with a capital WHOA KIDDO SETTLE DOWN 😂 ...since Lily and SPAAACE! are also a lot in their own ways, it's taken a bit of time to get everyone to (mostly) play nice.
Right now all three of them are playing Calvinball with one mouse toy and zero fights, yay!
