Boo. I did an exchange and nobody spoke English, so I learned Italian. It was that or sit mute and isolated for months. The chatter is what does it.

Hee. We are opposites. I can read it well enough but I excel at babbling it at people because I learned it hanging out with teens and can just chatter.

Can I recommend the lovely Everything Will Swallow You by @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social — broadly speaking, English rural magical realism, and just lovely.

Ooo! You’re learning Italian? It’s great fun.

I imagine her by herself in a simply decorated room and turning to the camera and saying, “you. Yes you. Stop it. You’re being ridiculous.” And we’d all say, bishop, ma’am, you are right, and would right the ship just to make her proud.

There was a book about this called Bella about a haunted lifelike doll. What the book got wrong is that all lifelike dolls are haunted. I don’t make the rules.

I love the area. Just glorious, and great food. I still yammer about the beaver exhibit in the Montreal biodome. Their feet are like little umbrellas!

I saw him at a cafe and lightly stalked him (followed him at a distance until my path turned naturally from his). His eyes were seriously glowy. I know nothing about him personally.

Last time I was in Quebec someone asked me if I was from a bilingual family and I’m still coasting on the glow …

It will take perhaps 2 years to process the application, so I am patient. I am coy about my profession but I and my partner are very employable in Quebec (and we speak French). There is no present plan to actually move but you never know …

I re-read Gaudy Night as an adult and the entire book could be reimagined as a porcupine. The prickliness shone through (though also Harriet and Peter 4evah). I do appreciate that she would have been an incisive critic/reader.

I know enough about her to think she was probably a pretty prickly soul.

Are there men carousing in your hall? If so, ask them to stop, sober up, and quit making a racket.

Apparently it inspired Alien to a degree. It is of much lower quality though.

Super-vaguely remember something pulsing and they all started waking up and I was so freaked out.

During an unsupervised period I secretly watched this movie (Queen of Blood) where the space vampire picked off the crew and then died because the woman crewmember scratched her and she was hemophiliac but they brought the eggs to earth and I was shattered.

Fellow Zelazny fan @toomanyjs.bsky.social managed to obtain a deck of Nancy Kolar's "Chronicles of Amber" Tarot cards. This incredible bit of ephemera is hard to find, they were very limited edition and are easily damaged. He'd like to create archival quality scans. What's the best way to do so?

I cannot imagine doing this. Everyone has their real name and/or association if otherwise I wouldn’t identify them (rental agent etc.)

You guys want to hear a short but adorable story that happened right in front of me at the baggage claim in NYC yesterday? I wasn't part of it and there are bits I didn't catch but holy crap, I can't stop thinking about it.

In the past they listed an actual phone number in their SEC filings. Someone wrote an article about it. I just buy less and less there. I’m not completely weaned but I don’t do much with it.

Thank you!!!! I’ve been away 3 days here, 4 days there since early August, heavens help me - it’s not conducive to sourdough. I’m glad to be able to get back into a groove.

2 happy sourdough boules on a rack on a wood table.
