Second book of the year, and while it wasn’t my favorite it definitely brought me somewhere new. I want to bring attention to the first story, The Gentleman from Peru, for exactly the amount of nostalgic sadness I needed 📚💙 #roomonthesea #andreaciman #microbookreview

Finished the base panels for the crocheted granny square top/vest I’ve been making over the last few weeks. I suspect I’m going to want to add more length just for my own preferences, but I’m pretty happy with it so far! Not sure if I’m supposed to block before sewing or not.

I absolutely adore Stegonaute’s first full length album. Thankful to have preordered so many months in advance- I had no idea it would be such a limited printing!

I love that none of us have probably thought about Paul Dano for years but the minute Tarantino opened his dumb mouth the whole world arose like vampires from a coffin to collectively say, hey fuck you

Typically I won’t purchase singles on vinyl, but as Oh My God won’t be on the LP and because I love Jupiter Winter a stupid amount and want to support them, AND because it’s my anxiety anthem I still have 0 regrets.

My husband got the shingles, our normal folks to do the cooking couldn’t come, and my mom has 0 kitchen confidence, so I headed up the thanksgiving meal. It wasn’t traditional (because it doesn’t have to be). I’m proud of my mom for helping me out with this and rlly trying! I think we did okay 🤍

This hair dye brings me a stupid amount of joy; it fades so delightfully, hardly bleeds when it’s fresh, and holds better than any dye I’ve ever used. I meant to try different colors when I started again, but never moved past it. I will be devastated if Good Dye Young ever stops making Kowabunga.

(1/2) Having a kid is such an interesting experience. We overlap in interests a lot- he’s 9 + a Zelda and Animal Crossing fanatic, and enjoy picking up new hobbies. he loves comics. I’ve been trying to give him lots of musical exposure, but one thing I haven’t rlly done in that is radio play-

Over the last week I’ve rediscovered a ton of music I’d totally forgotten about. For a minute there (from around 2012-2019) I was stagnating on my stuff and not listening to anything new and I guess maybe got burnt out a bit. It’s fun coming back though, some of this stuff is so freaking good.
