The sprayed edges are a Canadian Special. Penguin Canada got an offer they couldn’t refuse from the printer and Lisa Jager got the design just right. I love them. The novel evokes, roughly, the period of the gorgeous Books of Hours in France so this is really well-suited. Book as object of beauty.
It's almost time for a new Guy Gavriel Kay book! Just a few months to go.
We'll have signed copies available, if you'd like your copy personalized please just leave us a note during check-out: www.bakkaphoenixbooks.com/item/X0jL6yY...

Trump’s people are going to waste a HUGE amount of time trying to suppress any visible sign of dissent because the administration is premised on pathological insecurity.
Yesterday, workers found a creative way to protest the “fork in the road” offer: a spoon emoji. Today, they discovered the spoon emoji was removed from workplace chat. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02...

Trying to mentally and emotionally deal with this year so far. Torn between

People I think we should be able to punch in the nose on an emergency disaster basis:
1. Drones interfering with firefighting
2. Lookie loos taking pics and selfies at fire sites while homeowners are fleeing
3. Influencers, whether fire-related or not (just give me this one)

Can't find the Twitter thread b/c I don't remember the pseudonym I gave the client, but once repped a guy from a very wealthy family, on scholarship at [major university] for [exceptionally privileged sport], and he was in utter disbelief that he couldn't decide his court schedule based on game time
Privileged people generally experience the system as biased against and as singling them out for abuse, because they cannot imagine that’s just how the system treats people.
From what I understand from listening to @kenwhite.bsky.social Weinstein isn't getting any special treatment, and this is how it is for everyone at Rikers, but no, he thinks he's being picked on.

Probably the defining moment in Kraftwerk’s career was when they changed their name to Kraftwerk (from Uncle Horst and his Bratwurst Boys) and swapped their lederhosen and trombones for sharp suits and synthesisers

Remember: Reagan and his administration refused to even acknowledge the HIV/AIDS crisis until 1985, *years* after HIV made it to America, and only after a friend of his died from it (making it personal).
His inaction lead to at least 80,000 direct deaths, mostly among the LGBT+ community.

Somewhere in social media land, I meant to send seeds of a favorite paste tomato to someone. But I’ve lost the info.
Should anyone want the prettiest, sweetest paste tomato available, it’s Cream Sausage from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds and other vendors. (Photo here is from Plant World Seed)
