Digital illustration of a blue cat sleeping under a colourful patchwork quilt. Digital illustration of a dark forest with a beam of sunlight breaking through onto the ground. There is a small, smiling creature lying back in the sun. Digital illustration of a tiny house under two large orange flowers and surrounded by plants. The house has an orange roof and door and two cats sitting in the window. Digital illustration of a stack of pancakes shaped like a cats head. There is syrup dripping down them and it's decorated with a few strawberries.

Some Princess Mononoke fanart featuring well... a large portion of the cast. Just for fun and because it's one of my favorite movies.

just finished Under the Whispering Door by TJ Klune

this is the fourth book by Klune that I've read this year and he's definitely become a favourite!

another book of his that rips out my heart then gently hands it back to me, kisses me on my forehead and reminds me that actually life is beautiful

Morning thoughts about "AI".

Where do we go from here?
Thoughts about “AI” Yes it’s: The slop The theft The brainrot The loss of work The crumbling of creator rights The destroying of the environment and infrastructure But it's also the destroying of trust in anything that you’re not seeing with your own eyes right in front of you. Wonder now turned to the narrowing of eyes in immediate scepticism seeing something magical. Questioning the realness of everything from a stilted written apology to profound works by students in school. It feels like a slow poison to creativity and humanity at large.

#booksky 🌈📚 #queerbooksky
The books Bookshops & Bonedust and Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree stood up against a colourful background and surrounded by flowers and felt pumpkins the cover of Brigands & Breadknives by Travis Baldree - Hardback book description: Release 13 Nov 2025! Preorder the book here and we'll ship it out on release day. Return to the cosy fantasy world of the No. 1 New York Times bestselling Legends & Lattes series with Brigands & Breadknives by Travis Baldree, a freshly baked adventure featuring fan-favorite, foul-mouthed bookseller Fern. Fern has weathered the stillness and storms of a bookseller’s life for decades, but now, in the face of crippling ennui, transplants herself to the city of Thune to hang out her shingle beside a long-absent friend’s coffee shop. What could be a better pairing? Surely a charming renovation montage will cure what ails her! If only things were so simple . . . It turns out that fixing your life isn’t a one-time prospect, nor as easy as a change of scenery and a lick of paint. A drunken and desperate night sees the rattkin waking far from home in the company of a legendary warrior surviving on inertia, an imprisoned chaos-goblin with a fondness for silverware, and an absolutely thumping hangover. As together they fend off a rogue’s gallery of ne’er-do-wells trying to claim the bounty the goblin represents, Fern may finally reconnect with the person she actually is when nothing seems inevitable . 'Funny, unexpected and touching' - Ben Aaronovitch, bestselling author of Rivers of London
