Let your garden sleep in. For the pollinators.

Teddy bears are art.

"I built this book cart after my bagpipes got stolen, because I couldn’t afford a new set of bagpipes, and I needed to support myself. I used to sell teddy bears too. But one day last year, three undercover policeman showed up and took me to jail. It was just like a TV show— one was dressed like a rapper, the other like a hooker, and the other like a tourist. They said you need a permit to sell manufactured goods. You’re allowed to sell art, just not manufactured goods. I tried to tell them that my teddy bears were art because I dressed them and customized them. But all they said was: ‘You’re going to jail.’ I had to spend 2 days in jail. The judge threw out the case. But they never gave me back my teddy bears."

Chawton House Library, Chawton, Hampshire. The house was the home of Jane Austen’s brother, Edward Austen Knight. The library contains the private collection of the Knight family, which was used by Austen, and a collection of early women’s writing (1600-1830), including works by Aphra Behn, Ann Radcliffe, Mary Shelley, and Mary Wollstonecraft. The manuscript in the picture is of Jane Austen’s play Sir Charles Grandison (c. 1800), which parodied the Samuel Richardson novel. The library’s website provides access to a large number of full-text transcripts of rare late 18th-early 19th century novels.
