Oh Ulysses is 'difficult' is it?
Front cover of a book box that reads ULYSSES Three spines of a three book Chinese edition of Ulysses The last two pages of Ulysses in Chinese. The Google lens translation of the last section of Ulysses, it reads: I often wear them on my head like the Andalusian girls. How about I wear a red one? Okay, I also thought of the time when he kissed me under the Moorish wall, and I thought, okay, he is no worse than others, so I used my eyes to ask him to ask again, really. Then he asked me if I was willing, really just say yes, my mountain flower. And I stretched out my hands to hug him, really I hugged him tightly, let his chest press against my breasts, the fragrance was overwhelming, really his heart was beating wildly, and then really I said yes, I am willing, really.

Hi gang. I created a zine for my friend Andy who died this year. He was a games journo, as I was a long time ago so that was the 'vibe'.

I even did cover mounted badges. Do have a read here: www.yumpu.com/en/document/...
A box of zines called ANDY! Pink badge that reads Hilarious ANDY! Pink badge that reads Funny ANDY! A table covered in cyan, magenta, yellow and white badges that read ANDY! Some are in little plastic baggies.

Great piece on where Forbes is at right now.

"Among Forbes employees, there is a running joke: if you’re on the cover of Forbes, you’re going to be arrested soon."
