I can finally embed Bluesky posts in Intergalatic Mixtape after Buttondown did some coding magic on their side. I'm about to be unbearable and share so many of your jokes. :D

I saw a random reddit comment where someone theorized that Pennywise and Mary Poppins were the same species of primordial psychic entity, but Pennywise feeds on fear while Poppins feeds on joy. both of them eat kid emotions because fear and joy are more intense in kids. This is Canon for me now.

I suddenly ended up 5+ chapters deep in three books, which hasn't happened in a minute. People who can do this regularly are wizards.

Reading @kateelliottsff.bsky.social's Witch Roads and enjoying it so much. Worldbuilding! Determined middle aged women! Seductive dragons in human form (sort of, it's complicated). Creepy mushrooms!

We finished Severance S2 last night. It's a delightfully weird show. The fact that there's no solid news about the next season makes me desperately miss the old style of long seasons and predictable fall/spring releases. I want to go back.

- The Light Brigade
- The Goblin Emperor
- Driving the Deep
- The Raven Tower*
- A Master of Djinn
* I rec this one the most to strangers I have only just met
