Cover of UN CASO ASSAI BIZZARRO, as drawn by @insecateur and laid out/lettered by @subvertebra. A digital full-color illustration of two men in 1820s fashion standing in front of a dark green patterned background. The man on the left is wearing a grey frock coat, the man on the right is wearing a deep purple frock coat and has lifted his hand to grasp the other man's elbow. The man in the purple coat is fat, with the edge of his double chin visible at the top of the cover above the white cloth of his shirt collar. He is wearing a gold signet ring on his little finger. The title of the book is hand lettered in a sparkly golden font that frames the upraised hand.

Cover of UN CASO ASSAI BIZZARRO, as drawn by @insecateur and laid out by @subvertebra. On top of the same dark green wallpaper background is a full-color digital illustration of a series of repeating lemon and blue anthered potato flowers on vines, with a large black text box in the middle of the image framed with gold filigree. On the inside of the text box is the summary: "Don Magnifico, Baron of Montefiascone, has drunk his stepdaughter’s inheritance and gambled away her dowry, treated her as his servant for twenty years, and now whether he likes it or not, Cenerentola—Angelina—is the Princess of Salerno. In a single strange day, a valet became a prince while a prince became a groom, a servant became a princess, a baron became a cellarman, and somehow true love won in the end.

Goodness has triumphed, pride has fallen, and in the aftermath of all these strange reversals of fortune, everyone must put their lives back together. The princess might have forgiven her family their neglect, but the prince hasn’t: debts remain unpaid, apologies unmade, and questions unanswered. To win back any degree of respect, Don Magnifico will have to humble himself and accept the consequences of his actions.

And despite that, Dandini the valet wants to marry the baron. Don Magnifico wants to marry the valet. Un caso assai bizzarro—a most bizarre case."

On top of the same dark green wallpaper background from the front and back cover is text reading "Un Caso Assai Bizzarro Pre-Orders" and then the digital illustrations of the lemon and potato flowers from the back cover. Further text says: "EPub/PDF: 5€, Print and EPub/PDF: 15€". Finally, "Pre-Orders begin: 11 Jan. Full Release: 15 March."

I lost reading mojo in addition to having a bad 3 mental health weeks so I wasn't really feeling it but I just binged a couple of webtoons and enjoyed it. So the issue was I just didn't vibe with the one I was reading before these

Trying to figure out how to dry these colour changing dehumidifier sachets without an oven is an ordeal. It can be done! I saw the colour turn! But progress stalled so fast

my take is that I have never done cocaine but seeing “Vance’s twisted and wrongheaded view of Christianity has been repudiated by two popes” printed in one of the country’s largest Catholic publications hits like I imagine cocaine feels

@clairewillett.bsky.social would love to hear your take on this!

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

"How to make ACTUAL interesting OCs" "How to make OCs people will care about!" dog if you can't love your own creations that's where you need to start, don't make brand new beings for other's approval. You'll never truly love them if they're tied to a stranger's perception.

A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.

[quoting a tweet from isabelunraveled in which she rails against depressing books that get branded as “great writing”]

I am consistently amazed at how this manages to be both a romance and psychological horror without overplaying the horror
