- How to Keep Going | “I really enjoyed listening to Austin Kleon’s recent talk about how to press forward when doing creative work, even when times get challenging.”
- Handmade Sketchbooks Teeming with Colorful Calligraphy, Diagrams, Sketches, and Travel Ephemera by José Naranja | “José Naranja creates beautifully detailed sketchbooks by collaging elements of photography, writing, stamps, and his own precise drawings of everything from poison mushrooms to a bird’s eye view of his dream studio.”

- News Anchors Reciting Sinclair Propaganda Is Even More Terrifying in Unison | “Over the last week or so, local television news anchors across the country have joined together to paradoxically warn viewers about the ‘troubling trend of irresponsible, one-sided news stories plaguing our country.’ The identical, seemingly earnest editorial messages paid lip service to the importance of fact-checking and unbiased reporting, but they also complained about ‘false news’ and ‘fake stories.’ If that seems to echo the rhetoric of President Trump, it’s probably because the statement was written by one of his allies.”
