children of blood and bone | tomi adeyemi

“As it fades, I see the truth - in plain sight, yet hidden all along. We are all children of blood and bone. All instruments of vengeance and virtue. This truth holds me close, rocking me like a child in a mother’s arms. It binds me in its love as death swallows me in its grasp.”

BOOKS READ IN 2018: Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi

“As long as we don’t have magic, they will never treat us with respect. They need to know we can hit them back. If they burn our homes, we burn theirs, too.”

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Kullen has breathing problems and Stix is near sighted

Like there’s a certain give and take with strong magics??

Indeed. Vaness has a blood reaction when she uses too much of her iron magic.

And Owl...well, you haven’t seen yet.

How Can Star Wars Be So Good Even Though It’s So Deeply Flawed And Narratively Inconsistent And Was Created By A Dumbass

Seriously, stop everything you’re doing for the next twenty minutes and watch this video:

Although “George Lucas” has become synonymous with “Star Wars,” it’s really his collaboration with – and occasionally intervention from – the creative team surrounding him that helped launch the first movie into the stratosphere.

As the video points out, the movie that won all those Academy Awards – including, critically, the one for editing – was sculpted into its best-known and deservingly praised form by the editing team of Marcia Lucas (seen above), Paul Hirsch and Richard Chew.

If you’re at all interested in filmmaking or specifically the making of Star Wars, I can’t recommend “How Star Wars was Saved in the Edit” enough.

I’ve reblogged this before without that video in the reply chain. DEFINITELY worth a watch for fans who want to confirm how important Marcia’s contribution was - and for younger fans who can’t understand why older fans absolutely detest the re-released re-edited versions. Those things were cut for a reason, George!

To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before (2018)

“Love is scary: it changes; it can go away. That’s the part of the risk. I don’t want to be scared anymore.” 

[accidental-rambler]

read in 2019 📖 Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston

“But the truth is, also, simply this: love is indomitable. America has always believed this. And so, I am not ashamed to stand here today where presidents have stood and say that I love him, the same as Jack loved Jackie, the same as Lyndon loved Lady Bird. Every person who bears a legacy makes the choice of a partner with whom they will share it, whom the American people will “hold beside them in hearts and memories and history books. America: He is my choice. Like countless other Americans, I was afraid to say this out loud because of what the consequences might be. To you, specifically, I say: I see you. I am one of you. As long as I have a place in this White House, so will you. I am the First Son of the United States, and I’m bisexual. History will remember us.”
