The bendy bit I completely forgot to mention is probably relevant too… ::facepalm:: The palm grip style is wide and flattened? Or is that something else again?

Omg my copy of @ineffablepenguin.bsky.social’s Villainous is here! The perfect thing to re-read while stuck in bed with a broken leg.

An awesome edition of an awesome book deserves unboxing pictures!

I mean, I do appreciate a nice rant, but as an alternative I offer…

an ID badge holder and a bracelet keychain.

Hear me out. The badge holder is very stiff, and while that’s protective, it also gives the card a larger and consistent footprint: there’s more of it to grab and 1/

Today is my finch’s first hatchday! Their name is Violet and I would die for them.

+1 for glasses and lighting. I may have spoken too soon about the size of yours: I have one that’s too small for me to read that is approximately 1.5mm (right of the picture); the middle scroll is 2mm and the left, which I found unwieldy, is 3mm.

Oh, excellent, I’ve been meaning to ask this, now that I’ve seen enough of your other process posts I might be able to grok the answer: how did you make this one? I can’t work out how you got the spots.

The earliest printings with dust jackets I have to hand are a Homer vol.2 and an Aeschylus, reprinted 1988 and 1989, and both indeed lament the lack of editors. I never noticed, and I wonder what changed in 1990. Fun—thanks!

Struggling not to fall asleep in the middle of the day and then I look up and see this, the very definition of unhelpful.
