[BONUS] The Hummingbird and Other Musings - issue 190 - 11th September, 2022

# The Hummingbird If you’ve not read *Pretty Deadly*, I highly recommend it. Written by Kelly Sue DeConnick, it’s a horror western wrapped up in mythology and questions of death, with beautiful art by Emma Ríos. The story is narrated (after a fashion) by a butterfly and an undead rabbit – not dissimilar to the somewhat hyperactive robot narrators of Jodorowsky’s *The Metabarons* – with each issue beginning with a related story, aside, or lesson being told between the two non-human characters. The below comes from Volume One, Issue Five: ![hummingbird.jpg](https://buttondown-attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/images/d1f3f5cb-696b-461e-9a25-15a8ebef599f.jpg) *I’m afraid there’s no secret to it, Butterfly… The Hummingbird must simply work harder in the rain.* This passage, and the above line in particular, really struck me on a re-read. In some ways my depression is quite mild in that on my worst days I can still get out of bed, feed myself, shower, even attend to the day job. I can always – so far at least – do what needs to be done[^1] even as I’m being crushed beneath the weight of depression and self-loathing. On the other hand, the depression, however mild, has been constant for around twenty years.

[UNLOCKED] Britain is Burning - issue 187 - 31st July, 2022

CJW: This bonus was originally going to be a chunk of last week's newsletter, but as it grew unwieldy, we decided to save it for a bonus, which also gave Dan some time to expand on it a little.

I decided to send it out to the full list with a reminder that you can support us to get all of these bonuses as they drop. They're always pretty varied in content and form, so you never quite know what you're going to get. That's half the fun though.

  • $5 monthly subscription.
  • $50 annual subscription.

CJW: Welcome to another edition of nothing here. This issue is MKY’s final one with us as he wants to focus more on his own writing. It’s been great having him on-board over the years, but I completely understand the need to focus on your own work. You can still find him at https://www.patreon.com/m1k3y or working out while listening to deep-dive geopolitical podcasts.
