I don’t exactly have scientific data to support this, but I firmly believe that the sound of rain on the roof enhances the reading experience by at least 57%.

It’s Time to Stop Ignoring the Sexual Violence Happening in Gaza
As long as our outrage is selectively assigned only to specific victims in specific contexts, we are lying to ourselves about the reality of violence in war zones.

love it when a poem takes a familiar phrase and upends it like a junk drawer. a poem taking the quotidian, the cliched, the throwaway and rifling through it, pulling out its strangeness, drizzling new context over it. defamiliarize me; I want to be startled more than I want to know.

There's a screenshot going around of authors admitting to AI use and one of them appears to write hardcore monsterfucking fics and this makes me sad. If you're not writing monsterfucking fics for the sheer, genuine love of the game then what the hell are we even doing here?

The Glitter God is mostly decorative. Its skin is blown glass, its guts all sand— two humps, one function: timekeeping. A living hourglass with anxiety. Every time the sand finishes pouring from one hump to the other, the Glitter God is technically dead. But it can decide not to die, which complicates things. Hunters have tried to measure its lifespan,

Reminder: If you're getting into the growing trend of returning to foraging, PLEASE make sure you read up on sustainable & ethical foraging habits, especially if you forage in a public shared space. Do it wrong & you not only hoard resources for yourself, but can also permanently destroy patches.

there’s an in depth discussion of this in Braiding Sweetgrass, but ramps in particular don’t have a good seed dispersal mechanism and can only move as far as their seed-bearing stems allow them. Wiping out a patch might be a millennia-long local extinction event
