she’s here again and she’s not all that impressed
A striped Siamese cat with blue eyes lays on a burgundy-red blanket with her arms tucked beneath her chest. Her head is turned to look at the camera, and she appears sleepy.

STOP 🛑

Wallpaper check
A phone lock screen wallpaper of a manga panel. Most of it is a black sky with white pinprick stars, and at the bottom is the head and shoulders of an armored man. He has no helmet, and dialog bubbles reveal that he is saying “It’s hard to catch any sleep in this moonlight.”

big fan of this here leaf
A fair-skinned human hand holds a maple leaf so that it catches the sunlight. The leaf is many shades of fiery red with yellow blotches around its central veins. The background is slightly blurry, a sunny woodland full of fallen leaves and trees with golden branches.

A stiff, metallic silver catalog. The cover has black lettering which reads “A Chronicle of the Aviation Industry in America. 1903-1947. A salute to the aviation industry.”

A giant plastic skeleton from the chest up, and a smaller, slightly more devious plastic skeleton sits on his shoulder.

Miura’s legacy hangs over my head just like the 2-3 panels I wish I could unsee
A black bookshelf with several shelves full of books, and on top of it an ominous row of heavy black manga omnibuses.

The cover of “Snowcastles” by Duncan McGeary, which features a shirtless muscle man wielding a staff in front of some snowy mountains, and for some reason there’s a bald eagle superimposed beneath the title?

#booksky I need you to look at and appreciate every FACET of this gay ass cover please 💙📚
The cover of E.E. “Doc” Smith’s “Imperial Stars”, which features the most golden, glittering, homosexual lettering you ever did see, over a bunch of pink circus tents. Before the tents stands a shirtless, shiny blonde man in what looks like tight purple-and-gold bondage wear and thigh-high gold boots. He’s got an absolutely swagtastic mustache.
