a fake book cover with a boy pointing at an engine calling it "woke" because he doesn't understand how it works. much like how trump doesn't understand the constitution, government, or any part of running a country and blames it on "woke".

great note on reading books as an act of resistance in this audiobook i'm working through. free from @librofm.bsky.social this has been a slow but impactful listen. read more books, there is a reason so many have railed against free higher education and libraries... RESIST THEM. read all the books.

cover of alanna by tamora pierce, black cover with a picture of a redheaded young woman holding a sword, her horse is beside her and a castle looms in the background. alanna looks slightly possessed here and there is a lot of hate for this cover, but it's the one I first had and I can't help but love it for all its weirdness.
