ICE has been cracking down hard across the vast expanse of the greater Chicago area, and I wrote a little bit about what you need to understand about what it’s like here now. Plus, I compiled some resources for locals to get alerts and whistles. dansinker.com/posts/202…

The poor old Radcliffe Observatory is disappearing behind buildings of a different era and, um, different tastes. Developers now like everywhere to be called a "Quarter", and this area is now apparently called "the Observatory Quarter". These pictures were taken in 2021 and 2023.

Ahem. I think you'll find that it was Enid Blyton who invented Google 14 years earlier, in 1939.

This is Lola. She is one of the most skilled soccer dribblers we've ever seen, so it makes sense that she's already capturing footage for her documentary. 14/10

A photo a day from Ezra’s #Cornwall. SECRETS OF THE BEES (out next week) is a novel about old and new Cornwall, about the wild and the bought, folklore and money, and an old man determined not to be ousted from his cottage. Humour, history, and a touch of the supernatural. #books 💙📚

A bad week for writers:
A publisher avoids payment to writers.
A writer finds that their carefully-chosen words have been "edited" by AI.
A writer travels to speak about their book at a literary event and finds that the publisher has sent no copies of the book for the audience to buy.
