COLUMN: The Book-Object, "Why Does Taylor Swift Want to be Our English Teacher?" considering the aesthetics of the English teacher as wielded by the pop star

My Taylor Swift essay for Zona Motel is out today! I'm examining what being an English teacher means in pop culture and why Taylor might want to incorporate that into her brand 👀

fyi: They are on sale right now. there's never been a better time to add an astonished little weirdo to your surroundings

Sarah holds up an eel Facts advent calendar in front of a bunch of blooming flowers. The calendar has 24 rectangles with a yellow circle in the middle with numbers and zigzags. There are 6 eels on it, including a yellow Moray, splendid garden eels 2 freshwater eels and a ribbon eel

With a few notable exceptions among you, I suspect you (yes! you!!) simply do not know enough about eels.

Not because there is a great eel quiz at the end of it all, no no.

But because eel facts, that you can scratch to reveal, bring joy. We need more joy. Badly.

Get eel facts.

Much gratitude to the Vancouver witch–poets who showed up for today's workshop. My heart is glowing 💖

Sticker featuring a portrait of a ghost who has plastered themselves with stickers. The ghost is translucent (the stickers are not) and the cheerful confetti background is visible through their body.

The translucent ghost sticker held up in front of a wall upon which something is casting a rainbow. The rainbow passes through the ghost, into the heart of the viewer.

The translucent ghost outdoors, with a treetop and clear blue sky visible through its body. The ghost looks stunned. What a view.

The ghost enjoying a day at the beach. Boats, the sea, and the sky are visible through its salt-kissed body.

Here's a lovely pic of five bone buddies (small plastic skeletons). One is standing on their head, one is doing the splits with their arms up, one is dangling by their legs from an outdoor chair, one is climbing the back of the chair, and one is waving while sitting on the chair.

The bone buddies are still having a blast outside, celebrating the fact that they're skeletons.
