I am sorting out book shelves at home - so I can fit more in - and I found two of these. One I will give to someone. Which one would you choose to donate and which to keep? Answers on a "postcard" to...

Two copies of "A Monster Calls" by Patrick Ness with different covers.

Needed to write an equation (or eight) so just refreshed my knowledge of LaTeX and KaTeX Which equations I am writing from these: $$ \oint_S \overrightarrow{E} \cdot \hat{n} da = \frac{q_{enc}}{\epsilon _0} $$ and $$ \nabla \cdot \overrightarrow{E} = \frac{\rho}{\epsilon _0} $$

Can you tell it is a vegan Christmastide here in our home in Germany?

Vegan Elise Lebkuchen, Biscoff biscuits and a cup of black coffee on a wooden tray.

Just received a secondhand copy of a biography of Charles Ives and it came with someone else's tags in it. So hours of joy finding out why the previous owner put the tags in those locations.

A secondhand book arrived with someone else's tags in.

I realise that I am reluctant to share even on here. I was caught in the Facebook Cambridge Analytica data scraping when someone else allowed their profile to be scraped. The "other place" became a cesspool - and toxic. It may take time to trust again.

Deleted the app for the other place from my phone and tablets so I will feel a lot less tempted to lapse

I am starting a slow migration from the other place.
