For anyone concerned there may be something to the Tylenol-autism BS, I present:

As with AI art, these bros fail to understand that creative writing isn’t a slop bucket that needs refilling by any means possible. The reason creative writing is beloved is because it gives us insight into the thoughts and imaginations of fellow humans, not homogenized and plagiarized slurry

Everybody has a plan until a cat falls asleep in their lap

Let’s see your fiery sky pics!

I've started book 2 of Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson & I'm getting close to finishing the Priory of the Orange Tree by @samanthashannon.bsky.social :D I'm really liking Mistborn but I like The Priory more! Such a stunning presentation of a fantastic world building project 😍👏 What are you reading? 😊

[PART 3] All of that mormon-culture-related stuff aside though, this book is excellent! Super fun magic system of course (it is Brandon Sanderson ;D) and excellent worldbuilding showcased through fantastic storytelling. (Do read trigger warnings before giving this a try however.) 4.25/5⭐️

[PART 2] It's not something that a nevermo would pick up on but as an exmo it really stands out to me. Occasionally it pulls me out of the story but that's not necessarily a bad thing. It gives me time to analyze the literature, & it's a good illustration of how religion/culture affects worldview.

[PART 1] As an exmo, this was very interesting. Excellent writing of course (I mean it's Brandon Sanderson) but also...interesting. Don't get me wrong, there's no mormonism in book 1, but there are moments when I can see exactly how mormonism has influenced his view of morality and philosophy etc.

Super rare magenta aurora in the sky over Finland!

After a night of heavy rain brings a fresh start and breaks in the clouds during blue hour at Bamburgh

This is Oakley, Kaos, and Charlie. They are proof that if you like something, you should get it in a couple colors. 13/10 for all

I mean I actually do have insomnia lol, but my good book and my missing respect for tomorrow are not exactly helping 🤣

"Heartless" by Marissa Meyer is as quirky & unexpected as you'd expect from an Alice in Wonderland story, & I adore it! The book begins with our lovely Cath happily baking in a sunny kitchen, but by the very end you'll be saying along with her: "Off with his head!" Fantabulous novel, I love it! 5/5⭐

I love dragons because they're so cute but they also look like a little guy (😂😂) I'm Kiskadee on FR, a really fun forum style dragon breeding game! :D if you want to join put me down as your referral :3 www1.flightrising.com/clan-profile...

Dogs: our bestest most loyalest most lovingest friends 🥰 Cats: assholes we entice into joining our households where we shower them in praise and affection and yummy treats because we genuinely adore their assholery :') <3 ...How am I somehow both a cat and a dog person, given this disparity? 😂

It’s not hoarding if it’s books… right? 🤭📚

This is Ralph. His body composition is approximately 40% ear. But that does not mean he wants to listen to your podcast. 12/10 (IG: ralph_kd0821)

This is Porkchop. He's got better dance moves than we ever did or ever will, let's be honest. 14/10

A beautiful cliff on the Asturian coastline

Fables really had me believing people would be out here learning the error of their ways from doing bad things

What a crazy coincidence that NONE of these houseplants seem to be cut out for my unique brand of tough love

This too shall pass but probably like in a kidney stone kinda way so idk

The Strange the Dreamer duology by @lainitaylor.bsky.social challenged my idea of what writing could be. Taylor is the single most incredible writer I have *ever* encountered. This duology is the most beautiful and emotional story I have ever and will ever read. I left my heart in these pages. 5/5⭐️

Golden fire in the sky so wide, Waves embrace the shore in stride. Clouds drift by in a purplish hue. As sunset paints the world anew. Soft sands whisper, tides retreat, Day and night in a dance repeat. A lighthouse stands, a steadfast guide, As stars awaken and light the tide.

Summer on the Oregon Coast.

Gm you all. wish you a great week ahead. #landscapephotography #forest

Have you seen Lockwood & Co on Netflix? The show is good enough, I enjoyed watching it. But the books are PHENOMENAL! The show did well with the Red Room but the rest felt too rushed to me. The books make it all much scarier ;) This series is sorta mild/"preteen" horror and mystery, I adore it! 5/5⭐️

Jonathan Stroud is tied with @lainitaylor.bsky.social as my top favorite author of all time. Bartimaeus is definitely my favorite character from any book ever. The Whispering Skull (from Lockwood and Co) is also one of my favorite characters ever :D Only Stroud could make me love a skull lmao 😂💜

(250 pages read!) @samanthashannon.bsky.social is not only one of the best worldbuilders I've ever encountered but also one of the best at incorporating the worldbuilding into the narrative in a way that feels natural, immersive, and easy to understand. She shows (not "tells") the worldbuilding 💜

LOL this 😂💜

She is the cutest for sureeeeeee 🥹🥰

✌️

(235 pages read) I mean the characters and plot are excellent and all, but the WORLDBUILDING. It continues to amaze me, getting more and more intricate and deep and rich with history, myth, culture, and so on with every page I read! So far at least I adore this book :D It is highly impressive! :3

This duology by @lainitaylor.bsky.social is, in my opinion, a story about trauma, the ways we heal from it, and the ways we sometimes don't. This sensitive topic was handled with such deep empathy and compassion that it healed wounds in my soul I didn't even know I carried. This is a masterpiece ❤️🥹

The magic system in this duology is breathtakingly beautiful, and the Muse of Nighmares's power is particularly so. I have never encountered such a wonderfully strange, incredibly gorgeous, and emotionally impactful idea for a magical power before and likely never will find its equal. I adore it. 🥰🥹

"Chips and salsa while you wait" should be a thing everywhere, not just Mexican restaurants. Trip to the bank? Chips and salsa. Oil change? Chips and salsa. Therapy session? CHIPS. AND. SALSA. You can't tell me we don't deserve this after the last few years.

👀 😇😇😇

hey for anyone who might want to actually own their kindle books instead of renting them, or who might be thinking of switching to kobo etc and will want to convert them to epubs, you now only have one week before amazon kills your ability to download its ebooks www.theverge.com/news/612898/...

The Wildwood Duology by @julietmarillier.bsky.social is a stunningly beautiful & engaging reimagining of the "Twelve Dancing Princesses" fairytale. There are so many twists & turns in its intricately woven plot you won't be able to put it down from start to finish, & the writing is gorgeous. 5/5⭐
