If you see this post an anime you love
A promotional poster for the anime series Kids on the Slope, with the Japanese title Sakamichi no Aporon in large black characters above the English title. The scene is set on a slightly curving, uphill street under bright sunlight, with strong shadows cast from the left. In the immediate foreground, a light-skinned male protagonist with short, light brown hair stands looking over his right shoulder toward the viewer, positioned centrally on the street. He is wearing a dark blue Japanese school uniform jacket open over a red and white horizontally striped shirt. He is wearing a white sailor cap, which he adjusts with his right hand, and a black backpack. He appears to be pausing or turning as he walks uphill. Just behind him and slightly to the right, a dark-haired female character in a dark school uniform is also walking uphill. To the far right, a dark-haired male character with round glasses and a dark school uniform is walking uphill, holding a dark book or binder under his arm. The street is lined on the left by a high, textured stone or concrete wall that creates a deep shadow along the road. On the right, a set of steps leads up a hillside. Numerous other students in dark school uniforms are seen further down the street and on the steps, indicating a scene near a school.The bright,warm lighting and strong shadows suggest a sunny afternoon setting.

A rectangular decorative sign mounted on a wooden surface. The sign's face is light-colored, possibly white or cream, and features two lines of bold, dark text. The text on the first line is larger and reads: "BE YOU". The text on the second line, centered beneath the first, is slightly smaller and reads: "THE WORLD WILL ADJUST". The sign is framed by a simple, dark, rectangular wooden border, which shows visible grain and a slightly distressed look. This framed sign is positioned centrally against a darker, vertically-grained wooden background. The grain of the background wood runs vertically, contrasting with the horizontal orientation of the framed sign. The lighting appears somewhat diffused, creating soft shadows within the frame's edges.

An illustrated book cover for "If It Makes You Happy" by Julie Olivia. The scene is set on a sunny autumn day in a quaint town square, with a gazebo on the right and small shops with apartments above them in the background. Orange, red, and yellow leaves blanket the trees, fall from the sky, and litter the ground, which is lined with pumpkins. In the foreground, a young man and woman walk arm-in-arm. The man is on the left, wearing a brown leather jacket, a blue button-down shirt, and jeans with work boots. He has dark, messy hair. The woman, with long, dark brown hair, is on the right, wearing a black sleeveless button-up mini dress, a white long-sleeved shirt underneath, and tall black boots. She is holding the leash of a black and white Border Collie dog walking beside her. The title, "If It Makes You Happy," is large and stylized in white, hand-written script across the upper half of the image. The author's name, "JULIE OLIVIA," is in smaller white capital letters near the bottom center. A quote on the right side reads, "Pure rom-com magic." -B.K. Borison, New York Times bestselling author of First-Time Caller.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?
An image from the Harley Quinn television series features the characters Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy standing in an otherworldly, brightly colored forest environment. On the left is Harley Quinn, a pale-skinned woman with two blonde pigtails, each dyed at the ends—one pink, one light blue. She has wide, light blue eyes and a playful, slightly surprised expression, with her mouth open in a small smile. She is wearing a black choker and a skimpy, fitted top that is half black and half red, with a large black star prominently featured on the red half. Her midriff is exposed. She is looking slightly off-center to the right, toward Poison Ivy. On the right is Poison Ivy, a green-skinned woman with long, vibrant red hair. She is wearing a dark green, structured leather jacket over a lighter top, which features a subtle white diamond emblem on the chest. She has a gentle, warm smile and is looking toward the right edge of the frame, her right arm is slightly raised and extended. The background is a lush forest setting, highly saturated with colors. Bright green trees and foliage dominate the upper background, while various glowing, mushroom-like structures and purple and pink plants are visible around them, suggesting a fantastical, psychedelic environment. The lighting suggests a bright, perhaps early morning or late afternoon glow filtering through the trees, casting a gentle illumination on the two figures.

A quote from the book The Swing of Things by Linda Keir, displayed in black serif font on a plain white background, formatted as a kindlequote. The text reads: "if he was really honest with himself, what he lusted after most was the feeling of falling in love. His memories of the early days of marriage included sex so relentless they fell asleep in the act, then woke up hours later and started right where they left off. But that kind of sex was triggered by emotional urgency. He missed the way Jayne used to look at him. Bridget looked at him like that, and it was intoxicating. Too much so. When he flirted with the moms on the playground, it wasn't to get into their pants—though that was pleasant to imagine—but to recapture a feeling that had grown all but extinct." Below the main quote, centered, is the author's name: "Linda Keir" and the book title: The Swing of Things At the very bottom, centered, is the hashtag: #kindlequotes

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Loved this sapphic tale of an indie folk singer and a music industry exec finding love in an idyllic country village - on a Chrlstmas Tree Farm at Christmas time, no less! A wonderful sweet and sexy holiday read.

A close-up vertical photograph shows a piece of paper affixed to a weathered wooden utility pole. The pole itself is dark brown and covered in cracks and natural imperfections, secured by what appears to be clear packing tape horizontally wrapped around the poster at the top and bottom. The poster features a centered image of the pole's trunk, heavily textured and studded with numerous protruding metal tacks, nails, and staples from years of previous postings. The pole in the image appears lighter in tone, possibly due to lighting or processing, and has a background of blurred blue sky and green foliage. Surrounding the central image, large black text is printed on the white paper: Above the image, the text reads: I AM THIS POLE Below the image, the text continues: I USED TO BE A PERSON BUT NOW I AM THIS POLE THIS IS MY BODY NOW DON'T HELP ME, I LIKE THIS The scene is set outdoors under bright daylight, with a blurred residential street visible in the background, including a sidewalk and the partial view of a low, light-colored building or fence on the right.

Another quote-post for @nelnelnellie.bsky.social. I shan’t swamp you with recommendations, but this one *needs* to go in your list!

Do you need a happy ending? I believe the requirement that a book has an HEA to be considered a romance robs us of many reading-related tears.

So here's my recommendation. Crying guaranteed.

Movie set where I grew up. 📽️

No GIF as this one is pre-release. Lots of filming happens where I grew up (Thor: Ragnarok being one recent-ish example) but this one is actually set in Cairns.

A meme about the confusing nature of English pronunciation. The top section contains text and the bottom features four panels of an increasingly confused skeleton. The text reads: "if you ever think English is not a shit language just remember that read and lead rhyme and read and lead rhyme, but read and lead don't rhyme, and neither do read and lead." The four panels below show a white, skeletal face with glowing red eyes, which appears to be a sequence from a comic book. • Panel 1: The skeleton's face is shown in profile looking forward with an intense, aggressive expression. • Panel 2: The skeleton turns slightly to the right, raising a bony finger to its chin in a pose of contemplation or deep thought. The expression is still intense. • Panel 3: The skeleton has turned slightly further right and is now pressing the bony finger more firmly against its temple, the expression suggesting intense concentration or confusion. • Panel 4: The skeleton's face is shown looking directly at the viewer, with a look of severe frustration and confusion, pressing the fingers of its right hand hard against its forehead. Above its head, a sound effect reads: "SKRITCH SKRITCH SKRITCH SKRITCH SKRITCH SKRITCH SKRITCH SK." The yellow background color suggests the skeleton is thinking extremely hard, as the sound effect appears to represent the sound of intense mental strain.

A single-panel comic strip by Chuck Ingwersen featuring a large, fluffy, reddish-brown yak sitting in a white bathtub filled with water. The yak is facing forward, looking slightly out of the panel, and takes up most of the tub. It has short, upward-curving horns, a dark muzzle, and a small, pointed dark beard. Its thick, shaggy fur is rendered with a textured, slightly messy appearance. The bathroom walls behind the tub are covered in light blue, square tiles, and a white showerhead and faucet handles are visible on the left wall. To the right, a bright turquoise shower curtain with a pattern of dark blue polka dots hangs partially drawn. Below the main image, a large yellow rectangular text box contains the following advice in dark brown capital letters: "If you plan to serve yak instead of turkey this Thanksgiving, be sure to put your yak in a tub of brine for at least 12 hours or until the yak says 'I'm quite moist.'" In the bottom left corner, small text reads "© CHUCK INGWERSEN, captainscratchy.com". In the bottom right corner, it says "Follow me on Instagram: @captainscratchy".

A dark-skinned Barbie-like doll sits on a bed in a pink-toned, slightly grainy, vintage-style photograph. The doll is wearing a textured, patterned dressing gown, cinched at the waist. She has bright, prominent white eyes, full lips painted a reddish-pink, and her dark hair is styled up. The lighting is low and moody, giving the image a soft-focus, cinematic feel, with noticeable film grain and light leaks contributing to the retro aesthetic. The doll is positioned centrally, gazing slightly down and to the left of the viewer, with her right hand resting on her knee. The background is indistinct but suggests a bedroom setting, with a wooden headboard partially visible behind her. Across the bottom of the image, the text "I GUESS TOMORROW IS REALLY STILL HAPPENING, HUH?" is overlaid in large, bold, white, capital letters.

A vertical poster divided into two distinct sections: a gritty, realistic foreground and a vibrant, fantastical background, illustrating the text "Books" and "That is exactly how they work." In the foreground, a young, fair-haired child wearing a bright red shirt and dark trousers is standing precariously on a tall, unstable stack of old, worn books. The stack rises against a dark, rough brick wall covered in graffiti and what appears to be a discarded wooden crate or dumpster to the left. The child's back is facing the viewer as they lean over the top of the wall, looking outward. The pile of books is brown, red, and tan, appearing to be the only thing giving the child the necessary height to see over the barrier. The background, visible above the wall, contrasts sharply with the foreground's drab reality, presenting a fantastical, richly detailed landscape. Across a body of water, possibly a moat or bay, sits a sprawling medieval-style castle with dark green ramparts and towers, nestled upon a golden-brown, rolling hilltop. The sky above is a deep, dramatic blue with hints of teal and purple, dominated by a large, close-up planet or moon in the upper left corner. A faint, streaking object, resembling a rocket or meteor, is visible near the celestial body. In the center-right of the sky, a large, striped hot air balloon (red, yellow, and green) drifts toward the castle. Below the balloon, several large, colorful butterflies, predominantly red and yellow, flutter near the castle and the water's edge.
