You are Amy Foster. You’re having the worst time of your life. Your parents are missing your sister not sister has adapted to elvin prejudice against humans even if she doesn’t know it. You’re living with two insufferable gay people who also hate each other and you’re trapped under the ocean. No one tells you anything. But 👆 you get to fly on a sparkly horse. Everyone around you is obnoxiously hot except for your neighbor who is just as old and smelly as you barely remember him. This world is not for you.

“Where you come from is gone, where you thought you were going to never was there, and where you are is no good unless you can get away from it. Where is there a place for you to be? No place. Nothing outside you can give you any place... In yourself right now is all the place you've got."

-- Flannery O’Connor, from Wise Blood

i went to a bookish-themed market this past week, and i don't really have anything against these readers, but I do wish broader bookish spaces and vendors would expand outside the "hot girls read go feyre and violence i love morally grey ambiguously tan shadow daddies" market. like im happy for them but they are not the only readers in the world. can i get a bookmark that isnt some quote i don't know in loopy cursive with the same tassel as half the other booths

Reading The Goblin Emperor the second time has really just been me paying more attention to "we" versus "I" and absolutely LOSING IT

[cinastre]

my one complaint about the goblin emperor is that it didnt have enough csethiro and how she would incorporate into the imperial household

This year's garden is mostly seeds saved from last year's plants! The ornamental poppies and nasturtium are blooming and I've got loads of snap peas.

[hellenhighwater]

The first of the poppies is ready for seed harvesting! The pods have hundreds of seeds each. They're ready for collecting when these little slits open around the top--the seeds just pour right out. Left is not ready; right is! All of the seeds are from that one pod.

if they're gonna remake The Princess Bride, it should open with a kid sick in bed scrolling on his phone. his grandpa arrives with a gift--it's a DVD player with a disc already inside. grandpa hooks it up to the TV and presses play. and we all just watch the original 1987 film again.

I’m so confused the high school told me there wasn’t a built-in sound system in the auditorium — I’ve watched them haul in big speakers and an audio board for every assembly — but I have an AUX cord in the booth that I can plug my phone into and it plays music through the room even when there are no speakers. There CLEARLY is a built-in sound system the school just doesn’t know about somehow? And I’m not very technically experienced — I don’t know HOW the sound system works or what the AUX is connected to I just know I CAN blast music.

[sandersstudies]

School: so unfortunate we don’t have a built-in audio system anymore…

The audio system: STOP TELLING EVERYONE IM DEAD

School: sometimes I can still hear its voice…
