No essay this week, sorry!
But I’m unlocking Fuentes is a Symptom after several months behind the paywall:
…and as a quick preview, Andy has already made the graphic for next Sunday:
Finally, speaking of Andy, please consider donating to his GoFundMe so he can stop doing this the long finger-cramping way by hand! It looks like he’s about 5/6ths of the way there.
Here’s what I said about that a couple weeks ago:
As many of you I’m sure know, he makes all the artwork for my show and my Substack. He also does a lot of artwork for other shows, and album covers for bands and posters for concerts and pro bono stuff for local leftie political stuff where he lives. In other words, like me, like a lot of us, he strings together several precarious gigs to make a living. And he heavily relies on his computer to do all that. Right now, it’s broken, so he’s got a GoFundMe going. Right now, it’s just shy of 2/3rds of the way there. […]
You might have seen him put out artwork since the fundraiser started and thought “oh ok, no problem then.” (Look how nice that image I just previewed is, for example!) But it’s worth emphasizing that what he’s doing now he’s doing laboriously by hand, because that’s the only way he can work right now. He really needs a new computer.
So, if you possibly can, chip in!
If nothing else, if he gets all the way there, you can stop hearing about it from me!
