Open hand waving hello
A peace sign 
A thumbs-up
Pointing that way
Metal horns
Hand sign for 3
"Rock" in a rock-paper-scissors match

I miiiiiiiiiiiiight hide some little messages in my book (invisible to my lovely readers but obvious to computers) to mess with any AIs that try to illegally scrape my work.

Would anyone like to suggest any unbelievable spider "facts" they'd like to see as a top result on a search engine? ๐Ÿคญ

Pouring one out for Blanchard's wife, who must have dissociated so hard during sex she forgot she even had a gender (which is, presumably, the proper thing for a real woman to do)
