Three things: 1. ICE shouldn’t be out here killing people. 2. We’re still waiting for these cowards to tackle gangs instead grandmas, nuns, folks on their way to work, and people on the streets. 3. (Art by Jesse Duquette.)
The Puerto Rico Door Project (II) #4 #photography (Had to break a few laws and jump a few fences to get into this place, but the shots were worth it.)
Sam Neil had passed away. Such a legend. If you know me, you know Event Horizon and In the Mouth of Madness are two of my favorite movies. So many other great performances, iconic roles, dinosaur memes. A great loss. “Where we’re going, we won’t need eyes to see.”
Hey, @adamcesare.bsky.social in da house! Read, loved, and reviewed this back in 2016. Happy to see it back. Also, weird because Adam and I are both 25…
Connor McGrapist lost and got hurt? Aw. Anyway, here’s my favorite photo of him (Reuters).
Was feeling low and then Facebook showed me this from a year ago. I’m gonna read for a bit and then get back to work. Forever grateful for this book and eternally shocked, humbled, and overjoyed that it’s still alive, that the little book that could is still finding new readers.
Had a great time with David at @bookpeople.com. We talked violence, Lakota culture and food, research, and writing. We both left a bunch of signed copies behind, so if you’re in town, get you some!
While in California in June, I didn’t want to carry my wallet around, so I put my license and card in the key card sleeve. Things got hectic and I kept using it. Took a pic in Puerto Rico, decided to make it a thing. A month with me. The passage of time. Decay. Anyway, fuck AI.
Here’s some Richard Ingersoll art to make your Friday a little better.
Here for the greatest, but we can all cheer for different colors. Hoy…
