This is absolutely unhinged. Support the ACTUAL comic!
If you see this listing pop up on Amazon, just know that it is NOT the comic by @stephwilliams.bsky.social and @ignitionpress.bsky.social

It's an author who had the cover copied to sell his own book. Ignition is on it, but this is brazen theft.

A major supplier of library books will be shutting its doors after 200 years in business.

Since being founded in 1828, Baker & Taylor has helped more than 5,000 libraries, including nine within the Richmond Public Library system, get books to readers.

Hello friends,

Your librarian here with a tip.

The library has all sorts of cookbooks for you to check out. There are also cooking magazines on the digital app (Libby, Overdrive, Hoopla) that you can read, as well as back issues. You can screenshot recipes.

Happy cooking!

What's happening with the Chicago Public Libraries right now is terrible. The proposed budget of the city would CUT 89 CPL positions. Importantly, 78 positions were lost LAST year. That would be 167 positions in 2 YEARS while COPS KEEP GETTING MORE MONEY. ENOUGH. SAY NO.
