![Star Trek The Original Series scene. Montgomery Scott, in his red uniform and with a floral red velvety looking backdrop, looks happy. Like, just SO happy.

I've almost finished this, and gosh I'm having so much fun! I'm so intrigued by the background world-building.
I'd like more of a balance between staff/prees/naughty Middles (a key feature of the Chalet School imo), but the peril is top notch and I'm definitely up for reading more.

Are you a fan yet? Chaz Brenchley's Crater School books are a perfect recreation of the classic girls' boarding school tales such as the Chalet School series. There's just one twist: the school is on Mars! The first book in the series is Three Twins at the Crater School.

What a person looks like is not reflective of their soul. Insulting the appearance of bad people who do bad things as an outcome or indication of their rotten hearts perpetuates the notion that conventional beauty = virtue, a myth that's led to untold human damage.

We've determined that all string instruments are either guitars, violins, or balalaikas.
Sitars? Guitars
Ukeleles? Violins
Hurdy Gurdies? Balalaikas
Dulcimers, kotos and zithers are balalaikas. Ergo harpsichords are, too.
Me "but pianos are violins"

My evening with @lajellybean.bsky.social had devolved into an impassioned argument as to whether a piano is a violin or a balalaika.
It would take far too long to explain.

genuinely like the most important takeaway from the whole Epstein saga is that there was no group of people with any degree of power (or desire for power) who were morally above it. it's left, right center, it's politics and royalty, it's higher ed, art and science research, no one's hands are clean
