Dear Publisher - 

We recently shared the news that Baker & Taylor was shutting down operations.  When we learned they were financially unstable, Ingram took many steps to reduce credit exposure and stock levels, while continuing availability of books to library customers.  Those steps were highly successful and the credit balance to the account was brought down significantly over time.  At the time they shut down operations, their remaining stock on hand was minimal. 

 

Unfortunately, we have received notice that they will not pay the outstanding amounts they do owe and no further stock will be returned.  Ingram is taking on the first $100,000, but the debt owed exceeds that amount.  As a result, a chargeback for your pro rata share will be on your December statement (available the first week of January), per the terms of your contract.

With 6 HOURS LEFT in the ⭐50% OFF⭐ sale, I'd like to remind folks that we are confirmed Private Equity Collateral Damage & will be taking a hit on payouts from our distro, Ingram.

ICC will be absorbing the loss, NOT billing artists, so we would appreciate your patronage today!

I treat boycotts as personal blood vendettas. This is about me physically harming a corporation, not about me telling any other human how to live their life.

I don’t have time to judge others while I’m digging two graves for me and Target.

Owning a bank would be a massive chunk of the security needed to give adult content a safe platform. Also massively hard to do because you're required to have 5 million in cash or investments. But I'm watching.

You know what we donate to the local food pantries? We donate MONEY. Because they can turn that money into what those they serve need the most. I do not know what those folks need better than the food pantry does. So I give them my dollars and they turn them into something useful.

Good to know, now could they also un-enshittify predictive text? It's worse now than it's ever been, but it was already terrible years ago. It used to actually be worth using, once upon a time...

American History Be Damned Trump levels a national treasure

Dan Rather on the destruction of the East Wing:

"The only reason we know the East Wing is being bulldozed is because Treasury Department employees, who work next door, defied a White House order by sharing photos taken from their offices of a national historic landmark being leveled."

It’s been an honor to draw for my friend Nat’s bigbang fic called β€œLevel 5: High Risk of Falling for Your Lab Partner” - a fun chicago set meetcute story!

Nat doesn’t have social media but you can go read and support his fic linked in the comments!

'It's really an extraordinary story,' historian Steven Tuck says of the Romans he tracked who survived the AD 79 eruption of Mount Vesuvius "I have found two or three rich guys, but I found a couple hundred middle class and even some desperately poor people who made it out and left records. And that shocked me."

IMAGE: Maia gestures in front of a wall of tea containers, each labeled different asexual statuses. Some labels include: aceflux, demi, reciprosexual, greysexual, cupiosexual, lithosexual, fictosexual, aegosexual, fraysexual. 

Maia: There are millions of ways to be ace! We can use increasingly spevific microlabels to try to put words to our experiences, but the truth is: identity is dynamic and fluid and messy, and language is always evolving. 

Friend: But... but... then what's the point?!

Maia: Having a word for yourself is empowering! When I finally discovered the word asexual, it was such a huge relief! It gave depth and context to my sexuality, and connected me to a whole community of people like me, people who get me and celebrate this part of my identity. Being ace is something I LOVE about myself. It's powerful and joyful and freeing. I love it so much, I wanna just- (Maia points at their baseball cap with the Ace flag on it) -wear it on my forehead.
