Too good for this world

Dear Imagination Library Graduate,

My, how time flies. It seems it was only yesterday when your family and friends read you your first story. You were just a baby. Now you're five years old and about to go to school. How exciting!
This may be your last book from my Imagination Library but you have to promise me you will keep on reading. If you go to your local public library you will find a great number of books just for kids your age. Every book is a treasure and every time you open one up you will meet new friends and take wonderful journeys to magical places.
I hope you have a great time in school. I bet your school will even have a library where you can check out books. You and all of your friends are very special. There is no limit to what you can do or how far you can go.
Just remember the lessons my family taught me - dream big dreams; learn everything you can learn; and care for all those who care for you. You do all of these things and you can be anyone you want to be.
You are terrific, and remember...

I Will Always Love You,

(signed)

ethereal grace

"In Dallas for the premier of '9 to 5,' I had an uncanny experience, and on the plane home to Chicago I confessed it to Siskel: I had been granted a private half hour with Dolly Parton, and as we spoke I was filled with a strange ethereal grace. This was not spiritual, nor was it sexual. It was healing and comforting. Gene listened and said, "Roger, I felt the exact same thing during my interview with her." We looked at each other. What did this mean? Neither of us ever felt that feeling again. From time to time we would refer to it in wonder."

Is the guy dressed in camo actual U.S. military, or a cosplayer? I only ask because it appears his left shoulder flag is backward. The one on the right shoulder is correct (star field forward) but that left one is a right-hand flag.

Does whatever a spider can

Color photo of a chaotic scene. In the center, a person in an elaborate Spider-Man costume is reaching towards a heavyset white man in plate carrier and sunglasses, cowering behind a white cross made of I think foam-core. Other people are watching and reaching for them. There's an American flag and two classic protest placards partially visible.

I don’t think it can be overstated what a profound and immediate effect the 1968 Olympics had on graphic design worldwide, and what a timeless visual language it introduced to the world.

"Best Regards,

is just a small piece of the evidence that job hunting and work in general is completely broken in 2026. I really don't look forwards to needing a job in 4-6 months.
ffg pro Yesterday
Local company’s been trying to fill a role for at least 6 months. I’ve had at least 3 different offshore recruiters call me about it. They’re offering at least 20k less than the qualifications and experience level of the role would merit. I feel like placing a bet as to whether it’s still unfilled at Christmas.

I'm deeply torn between genuinely caring for all the people it would hurt who are already hurting so I don't want it to happen and my strong hate driven desire for Canada to place an export tax on all the energy they send our way in order to hurt the clowns in their shit palace literally standing on their heads right now/near panic *as it is* to keep energy prices low going into the midterms. OTOH maybe some Americans need to learn a thing or two about what our so called "energy independence" and fertilizer imports like potash actually mean. UGH. Maybe just for a week or two before the elections would be a compromise.

Either way Canada, hold the line and don't back down. Bully that fucking bully back.
