I am irritated to see that I inadvertently bought a pulp novel reprint with an AI cover. Loving how the mystery man wanting to attend a club has the option to go to CLUE, GLUB, SLUB, or [eldritch horror font].

Wollstonecraft on forest fires & climate grief, from 1796: "The devastation must, indeed, be terrible, when this, literally speaking, wild fire, runs along the forest, flying from top to top, & crackling amongst the branches. . . the country, despoiled of beauty & riches, is left to mourn for ages."
