hi, my name is Charlotte Moore-Lambert. you may know me from such hits as these screenshots that now make content thieves very popular on Instagram

a tweet from me, dated December 21, 2018:

“yes but WHERE on Eileen”

a tweet from me:

<the domestication of dogs>
wolf: I’m gonna eat your babies
human: what if, instead of that: blankets and peanut butter
wolf: ……..I’m listening

a tweet from me:

me: I’m hungry
fridge: great news, I’m full of foods you selected
me: no, not like that

In honor of Edgar Allan Poe's 176th deathday, here are a few of my recent pieces inspired by Poe's works 🫀

Rats have swarmed around him, chewing the ropes that hold him down. This illustration is featured in "Sticker Jigsaw: The Edgar Allan Poe Collection" for Macmillan Books.

The narrator is at the center of the image looking up at at raven perched above an open doorway. Behind the narrator is a tall window with red curtains, and the ghost of Lenore lurks nearby. A black cat is watching the scene from the lower right corner.

this is a real family. Sliman Espita, based in Canada, is a journalist; so is his brother, Ibrahim, who I interviewed last year. the funds we raised helped Ibrahim move his family from Egypt (where they fled before the border closed) to Ireland. this GFM is for their brother, Marwan, still in Gaza.

if you want to do some good today, my friends the Espitas (some of whom y’all helped me raise a ton of money for last year, thank you ❤️) could use whatever attention or dollars you could spare for them. www.gofundme.com/f/your-gener...

there is absolutely nothing less productive than letting your despair get the better of you and telling everyone else they should do likewise

we are not cooked, we are not doomed, and I am comfortable saying here in public that if you are going to insist upon perpetuating the incredibly self-fulfilling idea that we are, I am going to wish you the best with that and unfollow you. you’re only cooked if you lie down in the fucking pot

Your reminder that 29.3% of all revenue from indie bookshops immediately recirculates in the local economy 😊

That's 4x more than Amazon.

When you buy audiobooks through Libro.fm, you're supporting not only your indie, but your local economy.

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

It’s a core First Amendment principle. This is utterly lawless behavior, for which there will be no (short-term) consequences.

That he does it so casually, as they are walking away, in front of cameras.

Rightly confident in his impunity.

“[t]he freedom of individuals verbally to oppose or challenge police action without thereby risking arrest is one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation from a police state.”
