Con is done. I did well (although not as well as last year). My wife had her best single event ever, quadrupling my sales. I'm not even jealous. Just proud of my badass artisan wife.

This sets a dangerous precedent! Public Libraries have no business creating censorship lists!

@LnzyHou It has been, but it’s also been part treasure hunt. I’m finding things that were packed away from before we moved into this house 17 years ago that I had forgotten about. Found photos from my grandfather’s youth, and old picture frames he made from old cigar boxes. Found a letter my dad wrote to the IRS in the 1960s defending his salary, which gave a wonderful personal history up to that point in his life. And big box of Day of the Dead folk art I bought in Mexico. 😊

Fritz does not have any time for your BS. None. Zero. Zip.

An early #Caturday post to see you through the end of the week.

Bomb threats at libraries in Illinois. I guess if they can't ban books in Illinois they will threaten to bomb the library instead. This is disgusting.

#BlackHistoryMonth

"Carter G. Woodson was a scholar whose dedication to celebrating the historic contributions of Black people led to the establishment of Black History Month, marked every February since 1976. Woodson fervently believed that Black people should be proud of their heritage and all Americans should understand the largely overlooked achievements of Black Americans."
