¶. Sunday 11:00–11:10am: The Power Broker, read

Judgy Baby & livestreamed to your YouTube room, Gowanus, NYC, free

Starting tonight, 400 of us are reading The Power Broker at a secretive performance and sculpture venue underneath the BQE. I will be reading Sunday morning, from 11:00 to 11:10am. Audience access is free, but must be reserved. Might I recommend reserving Sunday 10am to noon, which is filling up fast.

¶. Another book you should carry with you at all times

The Locavore Variety Store, the internet, & other stockists, or ask your local bookseller & librarian to order ISBN 979-8-234-19039-0, $25

I contributed three pages (on the past and present state of NYC museum gift shops) to this year’s Locavore Guide Book, a printed directory of every independent dry goods shop in NYC, now three years running. Might I recommend it as a Christmas gift.

¶. A PDF packet of puzzles

The internet, free with any donation to the National Immigrant Justice Center

I’ve helped my friend and master puzzlemaker Eric Berlin spin up a portal where you can exchange proof of any donation made to the National Immigrant Justice Center for a printable set of 18 patchwork puzzles. Try doing so.

¶. Tuesday: the farthest thing we’ve ever thrown

Local Fluff, about a fifth of the way to the Oort Cloud

Voyager 1 is the farthest human-made thing from from earth, and it’s still departing. On Tuesday it reaches a lightday away, so if you wave on Monday, it should see you in time. It is a miracle we can still hear it. It comes with a playlist of a lot of people saying hello before the meeting starts, so our neighbors may hear us.
