Gizmodo: Are Those Fake Books on the New Air Force One AI-Generated?. “There are plenty of reasons to remain skeptical when it comes to images released by the Trump administration, however. Trump himself posted an image to Truth Social on June 29 that appeared to show a large golden eagle strapped to the White House.”

Delve 146.

We are hurtling headlong into the darkness of the epic Post 150.

Have you been trapped with Kru from post 1, or are you newly captivated? If you want answers, stop looking for an escape. You have to read deeper.

Hyperscale by Paris Marx. Coming October 20, 2026. An eye-opening account of how the data center boom is pushing our planet past its breaking point

It is jarring to read to how Jean - Jacques Rousseau writes about inequality, its consequences for the psychological wellbeing of humans in his philosophical writings; and then on the other hand, sends his own five biological children to an orphanage to be brought up.

"Tully Gets Hooked on #Books is a delightful new #picturebook for #frum families. #Written and #illustrated by #GoldieGolding, the #story follows Tully the worm as he travels through the forest and encounters several animal friends: Ollie Owl, Shimmy Sloth, Faigy Flamingo, and Talia Turtle.

Remarkably, each of these new friends is #reading a #book when Tully meets them, which in turn inspires him to want to #learn to #read, too."

Josie and me are off on a tour - we’ve been working closely together for 20 years and I think we were quite pioneering when it came to podcasts - this is not a podcast but two good friends having a great time on stage - we are at The Tabernacle in London on 18th November

"Serial Killer Support Group" by Saratoga Schaefer (Thriller)

This is my second read of one of Saratoga Schaefer's books and I very much enjoyed it. When I made a post about this book recently here in the Fediverse, I was asked if this novel was a sort of satire or dark humorous comedy.

When Cyra Griffin's younger sister is murdered by a serial killer, Cyra knows better than to expect justice from the hands of the police department. With the investigation already dying its own slow death, Cyra follows the blood trail and finds her own way forward. Using insider information (don't ask), Cyra infiltrates a support group for serial killers by pretending to be one herself in the hopes of finding the person who ended her sister's life. Proving herself to them comes at a cost, but it's one Cyra is willing to pay in the name of revenge. But the dangerous men in the group aren't the only obstacle in Cyra's path for vengeance, and the further Cyra descends into the deadly world of serial killers, the harder it becomes to hold on to her own humanity.

Yesterday I started reading Copi's 'City of Rats'. One description of the book starts this way:

'The Holy Mountain meets Ratatouille in this X-rated fable by Argentine provocateur Copi.'

**Notice** The author and editor refer all grammar and syntax maniacs, readers drunk on tense agreement, imperfect subjunctive addicts, fabricators of internal-use-only neologisms, semicolon nitpickers, and other such fanatics of Littré, Robert, or Grévisse back to their preferred reading materials.

Alt...

In one of his best plays, *Les quatres jumelles (The Four Twins)*, the characters die and are reborn about twenty times each, and it's perfectly plausible. Because Copi was not a surrealist, or an absurdist, or a magician. He was a realist, except that he worked with drawings, and he didn't know how to draw. Children don't know *how* to draw; they know what they *want* to draw. They want to draw, for example, a spaceship with the computer out of sync because of the laser beam shot at it by a magnetic King Kong aboard a pirate galleon that has been attacked by a panda shark with two nephews, one good and one bad. They are able to draw because they don't know how.
