Shelving by genre is for cowards. You gotta go pure alphabetical.
Library shelf: Oliver Guez's "The Disappearance of Josef Mengele" is shelved next to Jasmine Guillory's "Flirting Lessons"

goodnight, and remember: library late fees suck. they simply discourage library use. you should be glad if your library abolished them, and if it hasn’t, you should tell them it should. 📚

Until only a couple of years ago, earnest belief in phrenology was a go-to joke to establish that a character was both racist and ludicrously out of touch

No one did it like Ursula K.
From The Dispossessed, by Ursula Le Guin: "He had seen the moon rise when he was a little child, from the window of the domicile in Wide Plains, with Palat; over the hills of his boyhood; over the dry Plains of the Dust; over the roofs of Abbenay, with Takver watching it beside him.
But it had not been this Moon.
The shadows moved about him but he sat unmoving as Anarres rose above the alien hills, at her full, mottled dun and bluish-white, lambent. The light of his world filled his empty hands."

The new Nosferatu is a tonne of fun, and I really hope we're seeing a resurgence in fantasy that is playing in a very folkloric, mystical, occultist sort of space. I don't want shit explained to me about what magic is and how it works.

Got up at 5am to spend 11 hours on the ferry then two hours on the train, was deleriously exhausted and grumpy and the train guard handed me these socks and said I'd won them in a "Christmas passenger lottery". God bless Finland.
Some nice green woollen socks with the logo for finnish rail company VR. In finnish, the wrapping says "Warm feet, Christmas can begin here".

Prayer, from 'A Canticle for Liebowitz': "A spiritu fornicationis, Domine, libera nos. from the lightning and the tempest, O Lord deliver us. From the scourge of the earthquake, O Lord deliver us. From famine, plague and war, O Lord deliver us. From the place of ground zero, O Lord deliver us. From the rain of the cobalt, O Lord deliver us. From the rain of the strontium, O Lord deliver us. From the fall of the cesium, O Lord deliver us. From the curse of the Fallout, O Lord deliver us. From the be getting of monsters, O Lord deliver us. From the curse of the Misborn, O Lord deliver us.

Turning to the ancients for career advice
(excerpt from Alaric the Goth by Douglas Boin): "Even a career as a civilian officer seemed out of the question, unless he made the difficult choice, as Modares had, to soften his Gothic image or, following Fravitta's more radical approach, to stab someone at dinner."

Last night walking home I saw a very beautiful woman walking with great purpose, then stop to pick up a dead pigeon, then continue on her way, pinching it delicately by the wing, a big smile on her face. Deeply creepy. I hope she had a good night.

I've played enough Hades 2 to know that a: they've done it again, it's going to be brilliant, and b: I don't want to play too much more before the full release. Every new character and little discovery has been delightful, and I want to save as much as I can for the finished product.
