I'm not usually a popcorn collector, but I was coveting that Superman Daily Planet one and my sister got it for me for my birthday. A little banged up but then that's the way newspaper drop boxes should be

I didn't realize Goodreads has data viz for books I've read. This shows the publication years of the books I've read over the last 13 years. Clearly read newer books but interesting to see where older ones fall. The 1600 ones are Shakespeare; the early 1800s ones are almost exclusively Austen. Heh.

Finished (yet) another short-sleeve top! Really, I get *so bored* knitting two of anything if I can't knit them at the same time so I will rarely make anything with long sleeves. 🤣

I don't read a ton of short stories. But I mean who am I kidding it's Rainbow Rowell so. Particularly loved the mix CD one (listened to her Spotify playlist too), the Attachments sequel, and the meta one about characters waiting to be written into a story.
