Would you read a book about a poisonous girl, a haunted estate, and the man who loves her so much he forgets who he is?
Rappaccini’s Daughter meets Crimson Peak, with blood-fed roses and a slow descent into madness.

A romantic and eerie mood board collage for A Poison So Divine. Elements include a vintage-style plaque that reads: “Not every monster wants to hurt you,” a woman in a white dress reaching upward, a close-up of fingers penetrating a flower, a Greco-Roman statue partially buried in grass, and a man in an open white shirt clutching a necklace. Overlaid text reads: “the things I would do to you” and “if I could only touch you.” The background is textured with vintage paper, florals, and alchemical bottles.

Decades later, as new threats form in the shadows, she must retell her story or finally face the consequences.

40 yrs I've waited for my own Windsor chair to read/write at. Neighbor down the street found one last week for his yard sale business. Sold it to me for $40 & it's my favorite color dark green! It was barely dirty. These usually go for $400-$1,000 new. The blanket is to protect against cat fur.
Dark green Windsor backed chair with wood lion paw legs The dark green Windsor backed chair covered with a dark purple blanket to protect it against cat fur, with a purple pillow, blue/silver moon phase pillow and a crescent moon pillow.

Paperback/Hardback forever! Buy them the old-fashioned printed way or piss off! If someone reads my books & makes an AI fanfic like 'boyfriend' for more story, mark my words...I WILL SUE YOUR ASS into the ground! As for handwritten fanfic, may not allow it either. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVGv...

Japanese Diaso stores have been showing up across the US lately, & I'm beyond happy. At the Marysville, WA location I got some book index tabs. Photos show the size differences of US brands. I noticed readers on YouTube use the wider tabs & it looks cluttered. Saw these, wanted to share new options.
Japanese Diaso store index tabs, five color packs shown. Three top of image are Diaso brand and two bottom of image are Film Index Stationery brand. Three Diaso brand index tabs in bright colors, pastel colors and pale brown/pink/baige colors. Size are 1/2 a millimeter width by 4 1/2 mm long. 2 Film Index Stationery brand index tabs in pastel blues and muted pastel beige colors. These come in a hard plastic dispenser. Tab size are 1/2 mm wide by 4 1/2 mm long. Visual comparison of Diaso and Film Index Stationery to Dollar Tree and Post-It wider sizes in how they cover basic print book font size. The book used for this demo: Joseph Campbell The Power of Mythwith Bill Moyers.

Man, this is a pretty fucking gross move from Amazon, huh? Good on @bookshop.org for not mincing words, though:
Every April, we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day to remind us how vital indie bookstores are to our communities and society. It’s a day of joy and solidarity, and significant financial impact for these bookstores. This year, Amazon is undercutting that with a “Book Sale” on the same day—a calculated move by a company that has already put half the bookstores in the country out of business, controls over 60% of the market and sells far more books than all indie bookstores combined. The people at Amazon responsible for the timing of their "Book Sale" should be ashamed, but they are shameless.

For the people celebrating the weaponized arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan by the trump administration because "she broke the law," just remember that it also used to be against the law to hide folks like Anne Frank.

What side of history are YOU on?

They make it sound like there are millions of dead people getting Social Security checks. But it's just not true.

This is one of my favorite sets in my collection. Somewhere out there in the 1960s, a kitten and bird were pals. 💕
A small tabby and white kitten and black bird, likely a jackdaw, standing together in a dirt yard, looking to the left. They seem relaxed and at ease with each other. The same bird and kitten from the previous photo, this time strolling away from the camera in a different outdoor setting together, side by side.

#memes found this ad on my FB feed. Couldn't resist making it a meme.
A FB ad from Home Depot showing an open seat toilet with billiard balls in the bowl that look photoshopped in and would never fit in the exit hole. The meme caption reads: Don't know what's worse. The toilet being destroyed or the person's colon beating them to death.... Down below the image underlined in red of the ad photo reads: Powerful Flush.
