1. Shameful-bystander-“they oughta”-comment

    using (protest) signs to shame a (shameless) mayor in a major U.S. city about traffic infrastructure when (ineffective) signs are their preferred compromise, for the same reasons, even (they are cheap, easy to put up quickly), sure is something

    important follow up disclaimer: signs are but a small part of activism, one person’s shame and action is not the actual sole or specific expected result, there is almost always a larger strategy, there isn’t a “right way” to protest, etc

  8. Ninth book of 2024 (is counting like this annoying? idk, it’s all one mutable thread, so, whatever): “Get in Trouble", by Kelly Link ( https://kellylink.net/books/get-in-trouble).

    More great stories, some of which, but fewer than those in “Stranger Things Happen” would fit right in with those collected in “Black Water” ( https://mastodon.social/@gravely/110403938932091902) and “Black Water 2” ( https://mastodon.social/@gravely/110899731695137550).

    gravely (@gravely@mastodon.social)Attached: 2 images twelfth book of '23 for me, "Black Water: The Book of Fantastic Literature” (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/53080.Black_Water I started a Bookwyrm and posted there too but, alas no one there has reviewed it yet), edited by Alberto Manguel. 72 fantastic stories in a door stop of a paper back (at least that's how I read it), each one with a contextual introduction, and organized into themes. I'm now looking forward to starting the second one Manguel collected, Black Water 2. Previously: https://mastodon.social/@gravely/109372394967950916Mastodon

    gravely (@gravely@mastodon.social)Attached: 1 image 16: “Black Water 2, More Tales of the Fantastic” loved it, full of surprises and delights from authors I've never heard of and authors most have — Arthur Conan Doyle, F Scott Fitzgerald, E B White, Joseph Conrad, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Margret Atwood, George Bernard Shaw , Arthur C Lark) — and stories too , like Melville's Bartleby. "The Complete Gentleman” turned me onto Amos Tutuola, who I'm now reading in full. And a story from Isabell Allende?! Nice. previously: https://mastodon.social/@gravely/110403938932091902Mastodon
