From "A Special Kind of Morning" by SF master Gardner Dozois: "The universe just doesn't give a damn. Isn't that wonderful? Isn't that a relief?"
#booksky #sff
An excerpt from the short story "A Special Kind of Morning" by Gardner Dozois. "I'd learned two things; that everybody is human, and that the universe doesn't care one way or the other; only people do. The universe just doesn't give a damn. Isn't that wonderful? Isn't that a relief? It isn't out to get you, and it isn't going to help you either. You're on your own. We all are, and we all have to answer to ourselves."

Also I must share this passage in which she describes Amazon as the Wario to the public library's Mario, which is simply the best

Recent read - a great and necessarily personal overview of the development of the social Internet. If in the aughts you ever wondered who was watching your Facebook page, this book's for you #booksky

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a housecat must own a half dozen mice in various shapes and colors, to be left upon every floor of the house, batted and swatted and missing their eyes #caturday

So stoked to have gotten my copy of the new Metal Hurlant! I've been passively collecting old Heavy Metal issues the past year or so. May weird comics live on forever #booksky

I was intrigued to see this at my local No Kings protest today. The Gadsden Flag, resonating with the moment once more

The sign I made for No Kings was heavily inspired by this comic by Nick Sousanis - specifically the Trump card image. Go check it out!

Been reading "Passages to Freedom," a book of essays about the Underground Railroad. This passage on the Fugitive Slave Law feels all too familiar #booksky

TIL that no one knows the true color of Mario's socks. However, there is a consensus that Luigi wears red-and-white striped socks. Please enjoy this silly graphic I found in the wild.
