Guess what! We just split and stacked wood for curing (a process that takes a year). Then as I was walking by we heard the weirdest noise. Peeked in: two wee black bats cuddled up in there! Our wood stack is now a bat house.
なんならこれ、「イスラム教徒がオタクイベントを標的にしてほしい」っていう極右の願望だろ。オタクとしてはイスラム教徒ではなくてそのよう願望を持った右翼に対して反感を覚える。
イスラム教徒がオタクイベントを標的にした事例など世界のどこにも存在しないし、Shinngsbergというアカウントはそもそもイスラム教徒ではなくイスラム教徒に敵意を持ったプロパガンダアカウントだ。その程度の事実すら調べられないのにイスラム教徒を無意味に怖がるのほんとどうかしてますよ。

The Education of Percival, my new webcomic with artist @jaisydayne.bsky.social and letterer @longtalljodie.com is now live. We'll be dropping a new page on Sundays. It's a story about how growing up we put this armor on to protect ourselves until we can learn how to take it off and live without it.

As always, when a devastating new report about book bans in America is published, I challenge you to think less about the most banned author — Stephen King is fine — and more about the banned authors who are trying to scrabble together a living from their art. pen.org/report/book-...
A Spotlight on School Book Bans
Nearly 12,000 books were banned in public schools during the 2025-2026 school year, according to PEN America’s Index of School Book Bans.

❌ MYTH — “I’m Not Worried, Because Book Bans Happen Slowly.”
❌ MYTH — “Book Bans Don’t Have Significant Economic Impacts.”
❌ MYTH — “Book Bans ‘Only’ Impact School Libraries.”
❌ MYTH — “If I Can Still Buy a Book Through Retailers, It’s Not Really Banned.”
❌ MYTH — “Authors Sell More Books After Being Banned.”

この部分は自民党の政治家の大部分が思っていることなのではないか。 「『自民党は必要だ』と。『自民党の議員に頼ってインフラ予算が必要だ』というところに多く（予算を）回すのが当たり前の話です」
これは誤解の余地のない、真意が明白な発言なので、誤解を招いたという謝罪は不要。 「那須烏山市と那珂川町の令和8年度の道路予算については大幅にカットをしました。2つの要件がありますので言っておきます。1つは首長が『自民党の国会議員は要らない』という行動をとったものですから。2つ目の要件は（衆院選の）票数ですね。多くの市民、町民がそういう判断をしたということですから、そうであればですね、『自民党は必要だ』と。『自民党の議員に頼ってインフラ予算が必要だ』というところに多く（予算を）回すのが当たり前の話ですから、それをやりました」 news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/154...
