The reason we're wearing gloves in the 2nd panel is in our pretend play, we believed touching Pokemon would hurt us. the logic was that Ash wore gloves in the show & we thought it protected him against Pikachu's electric nature (which it obvs didn't, but we were stupid children)

Iwao Takamoto was one of the Disney greats. Films like Sleeping Beauty owe a lot to his meticulous lines.

The studio was a kind of home for him -- it was a big change. Just before, he'd been in the camps. We explore the story:

For the first time, we now know how many Black-owned bookstores exist in the U.S. The National Association of Black Bookstores has released the β€œfirst comprehensive national report” on the state of America’s Black-owned bookstores.

There has never been an official, comprehensive record of Black-owned bookstores across the United States β€” until now

I've been thinking of Physics Girl over the last few years since she's been struggling with long covid. it's so good to see her upload her first science video in 3 years ❀️

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:

The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same...

- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.
