s/o to @cosbrarian.bsky.social enjoyed the library takes and am aiming to send your book to my mom for her birthday wwnorton.com/books/fcked-...

Thank you so much! I hope she loves the book. I had such a blast on both of those podcasts too, just the best folks running them.

It's so frustrating and sad.

Bawang Merah means red shallot and Bawang Putih means white garlic. This is similar to other Asian Cinderellas, which have agricultural roots for their main character names. See Korea's Kongjwi and Putjwi, aka Black Bean and Red Bean. (which I adapted in my book: wwnorton.com/books/fcked-...)

Two versions of this tale exist. One is a "Kind and Unkind Girls," where the good girl gets treasure for being modest and kind, and the bad girl gets SNAKES for her greed and cruelty. The other is a "One Eyes, Two Eyes, Three Eyes" type of Cinderella, featuring a fish godmother and a magical swing.

In South Asia's Cinderella story Bawang Merah and Bawang Putih, the Cinderella character is not always the saintly youngest sister - in some versions, she is the older sister.

SO SUCK ON THAT, BABY SIBLINGS! THE ELDEST'S DAY HAS COME!

Sounds like the constituents of KY want to see some big change.

What a bummer that one's email inbox is much like your physical inbox, all bills and junk, no love letters or pen pals.

Dick Cheney won't see your mean jokes about his death, but Tony Blair will, hopefully.

Guns at the public library? Miami-Dade adjusts to Florida’s open-carry era While owners of private buildings can bar the open-carry of firearms, state rules don’t give the same leeway to local governments.

"Days after a Florida appeals court legalized the open carry of firearms statewide, a library manager in Miami Beach realized that would probably mean having to welcome visibly armed visitors to libraries."

Librarians will be killed in this climate.
