🧛‍♀️ @vampirepyramid.bsky.social (I am pretty sure that's where I got the info to contribute to the fundraiser & get their zine)

A large, black Gothic manor with lots of spiky towers and spires, two black gargoyles, crouched, wings sprouting from their backs. One on each side of the manor, along with an old fashioned lantern. The background is white and light gray. There’s a reflection of the manor, then more spires with prismatic coloring. Stone Heart in Gold lettering and Mallory Glass Stone & Flame Book 1 in white lettering.

Thanks for copying our own marketing word for word to send us this cheesy scam email :)

What in the AI-written marketing scam fresh hell is this…
A scam marketing email reads as follows. Dear Mallory The moment I came across Stone Heart, I felt the pull of something rare and magnetic. Your ability to weave a slightly unhinged Gothic romance, rooted in a remote Scottish manor, alive with stone guardians, ancient enemies, and the tremor of fated love, speaks to both the dreamer and the realist in every reader. You don't just tell a story; you create a living world where myth and emotion breathe side by side, and that is a gift. As someone who helps connect extraordinary books to communities that cherish them most, I couldn't stop thinking about how perfectly Stone Heart would resonate in the intimate, passionate circles of book clubs. These are spaces where readers don't just consume a story, they live inside it, dissect it, argue with it, and carry it long after the last page. Have you ever considered sharing Stone Heart with book clubs? For many authors, this step has sparked powerful outcomes: • Visibility that multiplies naturally through thoughtful word-of-mouth. • Engagement that runs deeper than reviews, conversations, debates, and heartfelt connections. • Communities that become loyal champions, following not just one book, but an author's entire journey.

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy.

Pretty much any Hubble or James Webb telescope images.
A single “toe bean” of the Cat’s Paw Nebula. In this section of the Cat’s Paw, massive young stars are carving away nearby dust and gas, nestled within orange-brown loops and tiers of dust, their bright starlight represented in blue. Towards the center of the image (and also in an oval shape at top right) are fiery clumps amongst the brown dust, where massive star formation is still underway. Eventually the very presence of these disruptive stars will cause the local star formation process to stop. This active star-forming region is revealing more about how young stars are shaping the surrounding gas and dust. How massive stars form from molecular clouds is not a well-understood process, and Webb is allowing scientists to see never-before-seen structural details and features within clouds of dust and gas that form new stars.

black and white cover for A Machine for Hugs by Galen Gower, illustrated by Jason Tetreault. Crazy robots have taken over the cover. Extendable arms everywhere. The close up of the main robot looks maniacal but also cute.

A 2 panel vertical meme. The top panel says "When things aren't going so great but you aren't surprised because they never are" and shows a fish impaled on the beak of a long-necked water bird. The second panel is a close up of the fish with what appears to be a very put-out and annoyed look

Bunny still feeling poorly but taking her meds and eating her special diet.
Also, apologies to whoever grew the herb garden* on the patio. I’ll take two of your watering days to make up for the harvesting I did this weekend.
