"The Man has a branch office in each of our brains, his corporate emblem is a white albatross, each local rep has a cover known as the Ego, and their mission in this world is Bad Shit."
Missed #PynchonInPublic today, as I was home w a sick Boy.

A copy of Thomas Pychon's The Crying of Lot 49, seemingly hovering over a cement patio; two Canada geese in the background pretend to be focused on the grass.

In honor of #pynchoninpublic day (aka Thomas Pynchon's 88th birthday), here's a photo of the late lamented Either / Or Bookstore in Hermosa Beach, where I bought my copies of The Crying of Lot 49, V., & Gravity's Rainbow as a teenager back in the '80s.

The only holiday that matters in my house.
Happy Pynchon in Public Day to all who celebrate. Eyesight too poor to read at the moment so having to wave my phone around to show off what I’m listening too.
Be kind to your lightbulbs and tip the balloon driver.

Happy 87th birthday, Thomas Ruggles Pynchon! Reading ‘VINELAND’ at a South Salt Lake City school-turned-library, Granite Library, for 2024’s Pynchon in Public Day 📯📚 #PynchonInPublic
If there hadn't been a train strike today, you can bet I would have marched up and down the carriage reading aloud the bit in 'V.' about the priest trying to convert all of New York's sewer rats to Catholicism for #PynchonInPublic day
My classroom board with Pynchon’s quote about how the world is divided between people who think science can do anything and those who are scared that it will with discussion questions projected on it.
This was what I did with my Physical Science class for #pynchoninpublic day today. Timing was apropos because we were already talking about nuclear this week.
