Hey, check it out, my Ten Thousand Saints Spotify playlist gets a shout out on Galleycat.

  • @alecbaldwin:  Cover of Cheney’s book looks like he’s maitre’d at the lounge in Hell. Table for how many?
  • Mike Lukovich, AJC’s Pulitzer-winning political cartoonist weighs in

“What we have witnessed over the last 50 years is the progressive shittification of the book as an object.”

Some guy’s take on the recent banning of Haruki Murakami’s Norwegian Wood by a New Jersey school district:

Here we see the intersection of parental values being offended, the hypersexualisation of our youth and the homosexual agenda being pushed. This just illustrates why a lot of American parents are not willing to entrust their children to the public schools any more.
