THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

A letter-sized envelope decorated with a black ink drawing of two seated men, facing each other. On the left, the man is perched on a cushioned, tasseled chair and footrest atop a spindly stem, labeled "Art." On the right, a man perched in the branch point of a spindly tree branch, labeled "Nature." Addressed to "Miss Sylvia Simons 3240 Lake Shore Dr Chicago 13 ILL" across the bottom. A red 5¢ airmail stamp with a plane in the upper right corner and the franking mark is from Boston, MA, dated May 8, 1948, and also includes a statement to "BUY U.S. SAVINGS BONDS ASK YOUR POSTMASTER."

My pals at @vidiots.bsky.social created an interactive experience during the film breaking fakeout scene in their screening of Gremlins 2: The New Batch last weekend. It's even better than what I had hoped to do in 1990! 😁
