We don't need flying cars. We need peace, warmth, a government that functions for everyone, libraries in every neighborhood, and a haunted forest encircling every town, which we can explore at our leisure.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel is titled “things that are spooky”. We see a book of hexes, a skull, candles, a pentagram in blood, and vampire teeth. Pointing off panel we see a speech bubble that says “I love it”.
The second panel is titled “things that are cute”. We see a strawberry cake, a boba drink, a bunny plushie, and a cute notebook and pen. Again, we see a speech bubble pointing off panel that says “I love it”.
The third panel is titled “things that are spooky AND cute”. We see a row of cute decorative ghosts.
The fourth panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, completely freaking out at this combination.

🍂📚🎃 HAPPY OCTBR CHALLENGE! 🍂📚🎃 It's the best month of the year and a time to look lovingly at all the books in your TBR piles and go: "Yeah, you know what, I'm going to actually try to read some of you!" That's it really. Cosy up and read the books you already own (to make room for more obvs).

Don't work harder or smarter. Work darker. Use your knowledge of ancient magic to call upon the old gods. Turn all CEOs into newts & ferns. Cover all data centers in moss & wildflowers and let the raccoons have them. You deserve a rest.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The title reads, "Suddenly Finding A New Obsession".
In the first panel we see Sarah, the protagonist, in front of her computer. She has a bored expression on her face.
In the second panel we zoom in on her face. She looks suddenly alert.
In the third panel we zoom in even closer on her face. Her eyes and mouth are wide open in intrigue.
In the fourth panel we zoom out and see Sarah in front of her computer again, but this time she is dressed in a frog costume, surrounded by frog toys, and has an "I heart frogs" poster behind her.

Reminder: 1. You don't need to have an opinion on everything, especially stuff you don't know enough about 2. You don't need to have a PUBLIC opinion on everything 3. It's okay to focus on one or two things and let others take up the slack elsewhere 4. It's okay to take a break when overwhelmed.

“Everybody has the choice of being a hero or not being a hero every day of their lives. You can either help somebody, be compassionate toward people, treat people with dignity, or not. One way you become a hero and the other way, you’re part of the problem.” - George Lucas 1/2

It's ok to look after yourself. It's ok to get some rest. It's ok to buy another book. It's ok to fill your rooms with books. It's ok to be surrounded by creaking towers & tunnels of books. There's always room for one more.

From Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute: the flapjack octopus, genus 'Opisthoteuthis'. They have little flappy "ears", can squish down on the ocean bottom like tiny pancakes. A new species has been proposed in Monterey Bay that would be called O. adorabilis because it's ADORABLE. (📷: MBARI)

"Don't speak ill of the dead" is meant to protect people who did terrible things in life who were unrepentant & to erase their victims. "Think of their family" is also meant to protect bad people & erase their victims. They didn't think of their family while building a legacy of deliberate harm.

We often treat every activity as if it is something to be bested, an achievement to be unlocked. If singing brings you joy, sing for the joy of it, not because it is a skill you must master, must exploit. We should do more things for the glory of it, not the profit of it.

Time has no meaning and clocks aren't real. Cast aside these notions and your human form. Become one with the fog that flows through the forest, and become both old and new again, forever. Or have some tea.

Stories are like gardens that are nurtured — twisting along unanticipated paths, as they reveal themselves to even the authors. If you relinquish all choices too early, give them up in the name of efficiency, fully formed from the outset — you lose something. Wander curiously.

You deserve happiness and nice things. You deserve a huge library with one of those rolling ladders. You deserve a secret library hidden within that library, filled with ancient texts of magic and maps showing the way back to the realm of faerie, where you truly belong.
