Just the redbuds blooming for Halloween. Nothing scary about that. What could possibly be terrifying about both hemispheres of the planet going through Spring at once? It's just climate *alignment* and it's bringing us all together.

I need to acknowledge my unhealthy relationship with the em dash
I could: go cold turkey and only use full stops; rely more on semicolons, but those are a morass unless the structure supports it; wave things along with a lazily evocative ellipsis...

If you have a chance to play a few hours of The Alters, this illuminates why the experience is so impactful. The game insists that you examine your own internal psychological architecture--it's base management by Jung, and it's worth your time for the voice acting alone: gamerant.com/the-alters-p...

A plucky nobody from the sticks falls in with a calculating bitch-on-wheels of a god, adventures ensue! A very good read mixing magic, science, sci-fi, and sadness on a dying world. Pointedly queer & pleasurable.
