I just found out that Spotify now offers paid audiobooks. The thing is, if you have Spotify premium, you still have to pay for each audiobook you want to listen to. Which makes sense in the context of audiobooks as a whole but not on a platform I’m already paying.

So, anyway. Friendly reminder that you can access audiobooks for free on the Libby app. All you need is a library card.

And if you’re a minor, you can get a Brooklyn Library card even if you don’t live in NY. And their access to books is RIDICULOUSLY big! It’s a dream!

Representing the Ace community (don’t ask me which stripe that is on the rainbow flag) is our comics goddess and “Heartstopper” creator Alice Oseman. She’s brilliant, and the Guardian published this profile of her this week. Makes me really eager to see the next season of “Heartstopper” on Netflix someday soon.

The book is a collaboration between Watterson and the celebrated caricaturist John Kascht, and it appears far bleaker than either illustrator’s earlier work. The few published panels are sombre and foreboding, presented in shades of gray. “The style of the writing, the style of the art is intensely different from Calvin and Hobbes. And I think that’s a very conscious decision on [Watterson’s] part. He would not ever want to be pigeonholed as just the Calvin and Hobbes guy,” Martell says.

“The artwork is very different from both [Watterson’s and Kascht’s] styles,” says Robb. “So I’m really curious to know how they collaborated on that and how that worked. Because it doesn’t really look like John and doesn’t really look like Bill to me.”

For all the darkness, the characters in the new book – sad-eyed knights, self-satisfied kings and pensive wizards – still possess the vitality that made a boy and his tiger seem to exist beyond the page. Yet the pair never appeared anywhere else: Watterson was firmly against licensing his strip, which is why there is no Spaceman Spiff: The Movie, no authorized Calvinball league or official line of Hobbes-endorsed red wagons. (Calvin himself would surely be unhappy with his creator’s decision to forego millions of dollars; Hobbes, who prefers the simple life – a tuna sandwich and a snooze in a sunbeam – would approve.)

“I said round about 2011 that I thought that it had serious and worrying implications for the future if millions of adults were queueing up to see Batman movies. Because that kind of infantilisation – that urge towards simpler times, simpler realities – that can very often be a precursor to fascism.” He now looks with dismay on the way the superhero genre in which he once worked has eaten the culture. “Hundreds of thousands of adults [are] lining up to see characters and situations that had been created to entertain the 12-year-old boys – and it was always boys – of 50 years ago. I didn’t really think that superheroes were adult fare.
