Listening to the audiobook did not help much. It's so painfully boring, just like Emma. I can't deal with it anymore 😂 I'll stick to the 2008 mini-series, and maybe the new movie..?

It's officially pumpkin season, which happens to be a special treat for our ambassador wolves this time of year! 🎃🐺 Although wolves are classified as carnivores, they can sometimes have an omnivorous diet. Along with meat and eggs, wolves may also enjoy fruits like pumpkins. #wolffact

It sucks that companies can just take away something you purchased and that this kind of practice is even legal.

Witch Hat Atelier Volume 15 ❤️ This time I got the LE again, because it includes this gorgeous two-piece acrylic standee of Coco 😍 20€ for everything was definitely worth it!

manga witch hat atelier volume 15 (german version)

A cartoon man is sitting on mossy stones with a wodden bowed instrument in his hand. He's looking into the distance.

He has white skin, dark eyes, long black hair tied back into a low ponytail with different sections. He's wearing a brown cape and a dark blue dress(?) with golden details with runes on it.

Acrylic standee of Coco from the manga and anime Witch Hat Atelier.

A cartoon character is sitting on a decorated chair with diamond and star shapes in front of an arch, which is just as decorated and fancy.

She has green-ish hair, white skin and her eyes are closed. She's wearing a blue cape with a silver ornament, a blue and white pointy hat, a beige dress with golden and brown runes and different shapes.

I liked the The Love Hypothesis movie. It had cute moments and seeing more of the Olive/Anh friendship was great! It's been years since I read the book, and maybe I'm misremembering,but Anh didn't have that many scenes in the book right? I'm not complaining at all bc I really like her character 😊

really good post that i really need everyone to absorb

tumblr text post by spiribia: I think it's fine if somebody describes a piece of media as life changing and earth shattering and bone shaking and it doesn't do much for you. I don't think the person who said that owes you an apology or anything. that's just the nature of people being different people

I wish publishers and bookstores would make it more obvious if a novel is a standalone or the start of a series.. Sometimes it's not even stated on the author's website and that's so annoying.

can we PLEASE bring back the word "poser" and stop using "larp" or "cosplay" - being a "poser" or "faking" being into something is lazy and disingenuous whereas cosplayers and actual larpers are passionate about their hobbies and out a lot of time and effort into them
