all the culture you liked from decades past was made possible by cheap rent and artists' pay keeping up with what things cost

It's because we all have day jobs, advances are pennies, publishers don't market, one underperforming book tanks your career, and we're expected to be well-tuned brand machines on social media websites designed to suck our souls dry.

There's 17 days and just 71 pledges to go (huh; neat) to hit 1000 pledges for the kickstarter for @mckelvie.bsky.social, @kierongillen.bsky.social, Matt Wilson, and everyone else's Covers for The Wicked + The Divine, all in one gorgeous collection edited and directed by @katiewest.bsky.social:

I think it's really great that people still make art despite and in spite of everything. I hope that continues until the end.

(But just to be clear, if the end happens soon, I'm out. I have no interest in carrying on humanity.)

I've watched Killjoys all the way through three or four times now and it just doesn't get old. I love every character, the arcs, the style, the laughs, the emotion, and the big guns. It's wonderful.

I had also forgotten it until I asked Jamie, 'what are shows I like?'

I found it really grew on me. Some bits feel a bit forced as though they're trying to capture the old magic, but when it just does its own thing, it's more successful.

Just about every study that has ever studied this has found that just giving people money is way more effective than conditioning it with a billion strings.

The absolutely wild thing is: This goes for ALL social aid. Just *giving people some fucking money,* literally going "OK, how much did you need?", cutting checks, and waving them out the door? COSTS LESS and HAS BETTER OUTCOMES than the current system's bureaucracy and means testing, EVERY TIME.

120 to go. It's a dope project, and if you're not already aware of The Wicked and the Divine, trust me you should be.

At last check, the Kickstarter for the Wic+Div coffee table book has 176 pledges to go to hit 1000. I know that way more than that many of you are or know somebody who wants and can get in on this: www.kickstarter.com/projects/kat...

Reminder for British voters that the deadline for registering to vote in the general election is *midnight tonight*. Unless you're standing for Reform, that is, in which case the last chance to register to vote for your preferred candidate was shortly before he shot himself in 1945.
