I didn‘t have a word to share from my reading today, but then I stumbled across a short video from Merriam-Webster about expletive infixation that included the definition of grawlix. This led me to an article with a bit more history of grawlixes, so I‘m sharing with the rest of you. Links in comments ⬇️

grawlix: a string of typographical symbols used in place of an obscenity, especially in comic strips (noun)

dabbe @willaful A major reason Schulz is my favorite cartoonist; he keeps it real. Charlie Brown NEVER wins. He's the Charlie Brownest. And we love him all the more for it. He's Everyman. 1mo

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

Rereading my entire PEANUTS collection this summer is one of the only things keeping me sane while chaos is all around us. #darkandstormynightindeed

It‘s time again for #BookishMonopoly! I rolled an eight and landed on “GO…to the Library!” Yay! So off I went to this giant Friends of the Library bookstore at the Georgia Cole Library in Carlsbad, CA. There I found my read for May: a special tribute to Farley, the lovable sheep dog from one of my favorite comic strips: “For Better or For Worse” by Canadian cartoonist Lynn Johnston.

@AkashaVampie

PurpleyPumpkin I didn't remember Farley, but I DO remember For Better or For Worse! That was one of my Mom's favourite Saturday cartoons.💜 5mo
MemoirsForMe @PurpleyPumpkin Cool! I had no idea the creator Lynn lives in Canada until just recently. It‘s a fun read so far. 5mo
Jari-chan “Go to the Library“ is a great prompt 😄 5mo
MemoirsForMe @Jari-chan I‘m so glad I landed on it! Though I probably don‘t need an excuse to go. 😁 5mo
