How soul-crushing!

And don’t forget to look for references in King’s work!

Yes! I’d definitely recommend “The Once and Future King” by TH White, “The White Company” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (set in same period), “The Romance of Arthur” by James J Wilhelm (an anthology of medieval texts), and Susan Cooper’s “The Dark Is Rising” (YA, but steeped in Arthurian legend).

I’m resolved to simply enjoy the series as-is. No artist should be forced to finish a work like fans are trying to force WOW/ASOS.

Thankee sai for the book recommendation! I’m on an Arthurian kick right now, so it would be nice to have something to bring me back to the present.

I’m here for you, especially if you like indie and unusual perfumes! A sizeable portion of my collection is from indie perfumers.

Takes one to know one! 😉 FWIW, I’m down for chatting perfume any time! I’ve got a big collection of about 250 perfumes.

100% valid take! Give me the chewy, chocolatey patchouli!

I was a Nick at Nite junkie as a kid, so this brings back the memories!

I showed this to my Labubu-obsessed daughter and she laughed demonically…I think it’s too late! They got her!

God damn… what a piece of shit Rowling is! I’m happy to have removed her from my life as much as possible! I don’t even make HP references anymore.

A yellow rose with a beautiful scent? Sign me up!

You may not have lakes, but you have the Atlantic! I hear you about man made lakes, though. Not all they’re cracked up to be, generally, because they’re often too shallow and warm.

Thank you so much for the picture!! Here’s one of Lake Michigan in return:

Very happy to see such enthusiastic leftists here! YES!!!!! How’s the weather out there? I miss home this time of the year. Nothing better than jumping in the lake!

I was a “Dannemoron…” 😋
