Allegedly an Artist
Realizing a bunch of the books I’m really loving lately could be described as like.

Wet.

The prose feels humid and hot and might be growing an algae on it.

Other series I want more people to read is @tkingfisher.com ‘s Sworn Soldier series.
Yes yes it has trans rep and that’s cool but what’s COOLER is how the first book is a retelling of The Fall of the House of Usher and it fucks severely.

Every time I see someone complain about booktok and book reviews where people just talk about the identities of the characters, I want reply by being feral in the comments about The Tainted Cup

If you have an AI Generated pfp:

🔸 I give more trust to a rando on the street than you.

🔸 I think you are sus (Derogatory).

🔸 Your opinion is probably bad. Just look at your pfp.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

READ THE TAINTED CUP BY ROBERT JACKSON BENNETT
It's so good and I'm so normal and not at all insane about the main character or the setting. I'm ordinary about it <---(lies)

Do YOU remember “the 21st night of September?”

Earth Wind & Fire’s co-writer Allee Willis said she told the band: “We can’t leave ‘baa-dee-ya’ in the chorus. That has to mean something.’”

Maurice White replied: “No, that feels great. That’s what people are going to remember. We’re leaving it.”
