It’s been hot, then the ac went out, and the smoke came, yet people still ran on the lakeshore, grandma and grandpa pushed their grandson in his stroller, but life keeps chugging along, one day at a time.

Two pink Rose of Sharon/Hibiscus syriacus flowers bloom closely together amidst dense green foliage, showcasing their distinct deep magenta centers and prominent white stamens.

Since he doesn’t think about our financial situations, I’m sure there’s nothing to worry about as gas prices creep toward the federal minimum wage. #greennewdeal

Some people have a Nobel and a Pulitzer, and some don’t.

A black and white photograph of musician and future Nobel and Pulitzer recipient, Bob Dylan, drinking a cup of tea or coffee backstage at the Free Trade Hall in Manchester in 1965 or 1966. He is wearing a dark turtleneck and a leather jacket, looking directly at the camera with a sour puss expression.

I’ve been on a mini-zine kick for a minute and decided to make one real quick for the late great Robert Cassilly. Was reminded of him this morning while reading the opening pages of “The Last American Road Trip” by @sarahkendzior.bsky.social and my STL memories came flooding back. Rest in power Bob.

Text heavy page with biography of Bob Cassilly along with color photo. Page can be folded into an 8 page mini zine.

The limitations to speech we allow to be imposed on us now will impact our governance as surely as moats and mountains did in the past. -Heather Marsh.

An illustration featuring a prominent mountain in the center of a lake, with a bridge leading towards it. The background shows a blue sky with clouds and green hills. Below the illustration, a quote reads: 'The limitations to speech we allow to be imposed on us now will impact our governance as surely as moats and mountains did in the past. -Heather Marsh.'"

A group photo of GWAR, the heavy metal band known for outrageous monster costumes and cartoonishly gory props. They look like a mix between a medieval battle squad and an intergalactic horror cosplay group that raided a Halloween store during a clearance sale. The text above them reads “Department of GWAR,” as if they’re an official government agency for blood, chaos, and absurdly large foam weapons.

Vonnegut was the best!

Poster with layered yellow and green background text and bold black overlay text featuring a quote by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. It reads: “So the America I love still exists if not in the White House or the Supreme Court or the Senate or the House of Representatives or the media. The America I love still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.”

The only 7/4 movie to watch is obviously the cult classic, Return of the Living Dead. Stream it for free on Hoopla with your public library card!

A retro-style horror movie poster features cartoonish, punk rock zombies rising from graves. A tombstone in the center reads “THE RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD” in dripping red letters. At the top of the poster, it says: “THEY’RE BACK FROM THE GRAVE AND READY TO PARTY!” Two ghoulish punk zombies stand on either side of the tombstone — one with a mohawk and leather jacket, the other in a torn dress with a skeleton face. The background is dark and eerie, with subtle blue light and fog. A music credit box at the bottom features punk bands like The Cramps and The Damned.

A scene from The Return of the Living Dead shows the exterior of a large industrial building with a vintage-style sign that reads “UNEEDA MEDICAL SUPPLY — You Need It, We Got It — None Larger.” The building is beige with large windows, and there are three cars parked out front from the late 1970s or early ’80s. Two men are seen outside near the vehicles. Overlaid in bold white text with a black shadow, the screen reads:
“JULY 3, 1984 – 5:30 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time”
The sky is clear and blue, and the setting suggests the start of something ominous despite the mundane scene.

Book cover of “The Fire Next Time” by James Baldwin. The title is displayed in bold red letters on a black background, with the author’s name at the bottom in slightly larger red font.

Starting my day out seeing this dood every morning has been good for my mental health.

A small brown rabbit sits among green ground cover plants near a wooden fence. The rabbit is partially hidden by the foliage and appears to be looking toward a gap in the fence where there is a patch of concrete. The fence has both vertical and diagonal wooden boards, and the surrounding area has a mix of plants and dirt patches. Yellow text reads: don’t worry, be hoppy!

I found this painting on Reddit sometime ago…hung it up at work and saved it on my phone. I find myself staring at it and thinking about what robust, healthy community looks and feels like. The Mill was the beacon on the hill for me. It’s the idea that I’m always trying to work myself back to.

Watercolor illustration of a brick building with a gabled roof and red awnings over two large front windows. The sign above the door reads “THE MILL 1962.” The front door is centered and numbered “120.” Warm yellow-orange light glows from the windows, revealing silhouettes of people inside. Green ivy climbs up the right side of the building. The sidewalk and a yellow-painted curb line the front. The artwork is signed “Kiersten C.” on the lower right side.

We can’t read our way out of this, but I’ve found books can provide comfort, perspective, and purpose in this confusing time. Here’s 20 I find helpful as we face what needs faced. Deploy your radical empathy. Say hello to a stranger. Give more than you take. Find common ground. Speak up & be present

Still got it. #sourdough #baking

A round, rustic loaf of sourdough bread sits on a wooden cutting board. The bread has a deeply golden-brown, blistered crust with dramatic scoring marks that have opened up during baking, revealing the airy, textured interior. The loaf has a slightly domed shape with a crisp, crackly exterior.

A hand holds up a round loaf of sourdough bread in front of a window. The loaf has a deep golden-brown, blistered crust with distinct horizontal ridges from a proofing basket. The top has dramatic, darkened scoring marks and a slightly cracked appearance, while the bottom is slightly dusted with flour. The loaf has a nicely domed shape and an even rise.

A hand holds two halves of a freshly cut sourdough loaf, showing the interior crumb structure. The crumb is light, soft, and slightly glossy, with a moderately open structure and some irregular air pockets throughout. The crust is golden-brown and well-baked, providing a contrast to the airy, tender interior. The bread sits on a wooden cutting board with kitchen utensils visible in the background.

bunker bluster in chief

A doctored image of a formal press conference scene featuring four men in suits, with their faces replaced by smiling poop emoji. The central figure is standing at a podium with the presidential seal visible, suggesting a parody of a U.S. presidential address. The text on the image reads: “‘Completely and totally obliterated’.” A chandelier and grand hallway are visible in the background.

A folded light blue t-shirt with the words “HOT COMMIE SUMMER” printed in bold teal capital letters. The shirt has a visible label reading “RAYGUN” and “2005. UNION PRINT.” Below the shirt is a caption featuring a cartoon dog labeled “Pancake” saying, “It has been declared, and it shall be so.”

There’s a letter JB wrote to his nephew that people quote, but there’s also a long essay detailing his first meeting with Elijah Mohammed on the South Side of Chicago (1961). He asked, “…and what are you now?” Once a Pentecostal preacher, James replied “I’m a writer. I like doing things alone.”

Baldwin is talking about the treatment of Blacks by Whites in a letter to his nephew here, but the sentiment applies across all humanity. Deploy your radical empathy and be kind…and don’t rank Cuomo!

🌕🌕🌕 I relate to the midlife convenience store clerk. Public facing jobs are tough but being around people is good for us. There’s small comforts in doing work that we know really well. Being weird is a good thing. I don’t read a lot of fantasy, but it’s subtle and added something I wasn’t expecting.
