Facade update

Hey man your college girlfriend left this at the radio station

TY CM George! We are excited to welcome our new neighbors 😊

Facade update, pre power wash

u.s.a.

I have a new piece up @thequietus.com about how Boyd Rice, Adam Parfrey, Nikolas Schreck & Michael Moynihan used the 1980s/90s underground scene to promote neo-Nazi terrorist doctrines. Please share with your music friends! thequietus.com/opinion-and-...

Unlike my fellow bookseller Jeff, I will not be making any deals with people who murder my employees. But you know, different strokes etc.

Thinking about getting into shadow banking as a side hustle

Two of my favorite bevys 💞❤️

One cool thing about having a weirdo music radio show is when my minor weirdo music radio show plays a song before a slightly less minor weirdo music radio show on BBC3 or WFMU plays it. Feels like I maybe know what I'm doing for a second (I do not)

Goodbye to this horrible blue awning

Sold a lot of books today. Nice thing for me.

Don't talk to me or my son ever again

We also do 50% up front. Consignment stinks for everyone! If I think your stuff is good I'm gonna buy it up front and then it's my job to find a customer for it

A reputable publication is calling my debut novel a "journey into wonder"

They got my ass good. @bencollins.bsky.social when are you going to let me sell your piddling little rag in our store

Happy May Day

Many are calling me a "keen observer of the human condition" whose debut novel "flourishes with the details often missed by the casual eye, with a wit to match". But you don't hear me bragging about it like some people.

Been saying this. Bookstore revenue up despite headwinds. Our customers want authentic and real people in their lives and that's what we are selling, more than books. Feels good.

The only self driving car that I support is Trolley from Daniel tiger

Bookstore had its best sales day ever today. Thanks to everyone who came out for indie bookstore day. Jeff Bezos eats farts.

Mulberry season is coming up. Just something nice to think about.

Man, this is a pretty fucking gross move from Amazon, huh? Good on @bookshop.org for not mincing words, though:

If you were a subscriber to the People's Book zone scene you'd be getting all this on your doorstep soon peoplesbooktakoma.com/zine-scene-s... @garbageskeleton.skin @justseeds.bsky.social
