Thank you, Chaaya Prabhat, for the beautiful illustrations:

(To me, this poem represents a response to the election of a dictator whose only concern is himself and his own power. It has always seemed terribly frightening and comforting, all at once. Time is a scythe.)

"No thing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away."

"And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'"

Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things"

"Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command"

She knows damn well that Biden won. Fake scoundrels in the new cabinet, from top to bottom. She only looks presentable in comparison with Gaetz. That nom has come to seem more and more like a stalking horse for the other noms.

'Manga' (not a 'weird new category') and Young Adult probably sell at least 4 times more than 'world history'.
Only normal business practice to make the shelves reflect that reality. Because B&N is not in the business of teaching 'woke'.
They are in the business of selling books.
