something about eric taking the initiative and grabbing assad’s hand first is really feeding the brainworms tonight… the black mold is speaking to me now, telling me to shut the world out, whispering sweet nothings n all

He reached for his hand AND reached out for him first at the panel. AND HE DOESNT LIKE TOUCHING, I’m unwell. They really feel safe with each other. I love my this!!!!!!

[sillystigmata]

And I did scream.

[beccabear93]

So, um... Anyone else notice how almost every time Eric was directly addressed in the panel, Assad repeated/mouthed whatever had been said to him?

This comment was left on a post about making the most of the Libby app. "Excessive use of generous lending policies" is the most absurd phrase I've ever seen anyone use to discuss libraries.

looked up Heidi because I'm a journalist

for reasons I can't imagine this publisher of sexless Alaska love stories is averaging under 20 likes each on posts about her books, so if I can be so honest I kind of have my doubts that her books are getting read even with the excessive use of generous lending policies

[ariaste]

Also her claim that authors are not getting paid per borrow is.... wrong. With ebooks (which is what she's talking about here with Libby) there are two forms of licensing for libraries to lend out ebooks.

The first kind is that they buy a license for a pre-determined amount of check-outs. I'll just make some numbers up for the sake of illustrating what that looks like: Let's say $20 for 20 borrows. When the ebook has been checked out 20 times, the library has to renew the license and pay more money in order to continue lending out the ebook. The author gets a cut of that $20 as their royalties.

The second kind is literally paying per borrow. (Again just making up numbers here) Let's say the library pays 50 cents every time the book is checked out. The author still gets a cut as their royalties. Is it just 10 or 20 cents per borrow? Yes, but that adds up! AND it means that people who otherwise wouldn't have been able to read my book at all are able to read it, which is great! AND it means that the library is thriving and being used, which is also great!

So yes, authors DO get paid from library activity!!!!!!

Do not feel guilty for using the library. I don't know one single author (except this Little Miss Ma'am in the screenshots, apparently) who would resent their readers for using libraries.

DOWN BOY? ARE YOU KIDDING MEEEEE

Major spoiler for tvl ep6 !!! Going home from your beheading date with the companion you just married off screen! Lestat is in Daniel’s bowling/beach bag (he is mortified) and Louis is in Armand’s designer leather bag. Sometimes it’s about being happy on the bench your glowing husband force-suicided someone on 😌

Things to look for : matching wedding bands ! Matching keychains of each other on their bags ! Daniel wears a lobster tshirt to go with his lobster tan (spf bottle on top of Lestat’s head). We can see Armand tried to wipe out the blood from his dock martens but Daniel didn’t even try. Some mehndi is poking from Armand’s shoe ! There’s a glimpse of the name of the station which is a reference to a real Parisian metro station named “Filles du calvaire” (girls/daughters of suffering)

Details of the mehndi, keychains and lobster shirt under the cut !
