A black-and-white cartoon set in Washington Square Park. A street preacher stands on a soapbox with a QR code on the front and a tip jar beside it. He leans forward mid-speech, gesturing toward two passersby walking on the same plaza stones: an NYU student in a sweatshirt and backpack, and a tattooed young woman carrying a guitar case covered in indie band stickers. Both look skeptical. The Washington Square Arch appears lightly in the background. Caption below the image reads: “Repent… or at least subscribe to my Substack.”
10 days ‘til Christmas and a busy week ahead. Tough waking up to sad news from Hollywood, where I spent many years as a writer. Violence sucks.
On to #WashingtonSquare. The message is eternal but you can only find it behind a paywall.
