In early Christian literature and art, the turtle was a symbol of heresy and evil.

Why?

Because of its lowness to the ground and its tendency to wallow in mud and filth.

Oh, shell yeah.

Snickers bar and a metal whistle

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.

Took my ratties to the vet today and the vet told me she had never seen more squirrelly rats than mine

Unsolicited writing advice: no. 8075: There is no such thing as serious writing. There are only writers who take their work seriously, and those who don’t. Tragedy is no more “serious” than comedy. Children’s writing is no less “serious” than writing for adults. Good writing is wherever you find it.

If we make it illegal to steal paintings from the Louvre then the entire industry will be unsustainable

The main achievement of the tech industry has been increasing the flow of money from people who make or do things to people who already have more money than they could spend in a hundred lifetimes

The old system, where you bought the things you liked from artists you liked, has been replaced by a hose that indiscriminately gushes culture over a listless populace, while any money goes to the owners of the pipe.

Federal judge says "government speech" allows libraries to censor LGBTQ+ books - LGBTQ Nation One free speech organization has said the judge's ruling allows "blatant viewpoint discrimination in publicly-funded libraries."

A devastating ruling that potentially impacts both public and school libraries.

"If the collection constitutes government speech, then [readers’ and authors’] speech rights are not implicated…This is because when the government itself is speaking, it is ‘entitled to say what it wishes.'”

What's wrong with you people

A screenshot from Publisher's Lunch: Jennifer L. Armentrout and Hellmann's In a promotion designed for BookTok enjoyment, Jennifer L. Armentrout’s just-published THE PRIMAL OF BLOOD AND BONE is available in a special, limited-edition "garlic-scented copy, infused with Hellmann’s Garlic Aioli to create a one-of-a-kind, Craven-proof book." They explain: "This exclusive edition is printed with garlic-infused ink, designed to ward off Armentrout’s bloodthirsty monsters, the Craven. While humans may dread garlic breath, Hellmann’s has cleverly transformed this social faux pas into an unexpected – and delicious – form of supernatural protection."

A poster of a manifesto about reading, by Loki, with 6 points on reading "bad" books, short books, comics, audioooks, webcomics and fanfic, plus not finishing bad books cos life is too short.

I cannot tell you how many parents I met across the last few events who said that comics started their kids reading. Just comics. It’s the one thing that worked. 🫡

Yeah, because we took third spaces away from kids! (Illegal fire pits in the woods behind your housing development, which is now a parking lot for your town's 2nd Jimmy Johns)
