Thanks! I bought it to make a blanket and then I . . . didn't want to do that anymore.

WIP:

Fresh blooms rested in the vases, the imitation of life still upon them but they had been cut, they would end up as the others.
They would die. They were dying. They were dead.

If you just Google the title it is pretty available on all the fan translated sites.

Again, for anyone reading this, there is no legal way to read this in English.

It is also available in French on Amazon.

Biblomania is an amazing piece of cosmic horror that features cute girl body horror and girl as monster and it should be read more but there's no official English version

I have a continuous glucose monitor. I have put it on multiple times and I know it does not hurt but every single time I have to psych myself up for 20 minutes to reinstall a new one.

Why are brains like this.

Nothing gets you going like a pop punk playlist.

You're right, sum 41. I never will fall in line! And you know what all American rejects I do hope my face gives him hell.

The Fullness Of Emptying All Thy Faithful Plenitude // 2025

Proud to finish something I actually like after being so art blocked after surgery, I feel like I’m rerooting myself back into my curiosity, passions and tastes!

A+ innovation.

Donyae Coles @okokno.bsky.social · 8d

You know what really slaps? Tiles. Humanity really want off with the creation of that decorative and functional element.

It was good enough that they made a floor stable but THEN ancient humans were like, lets add color.

10/10. No notes.

Some Latinx authors to buy instead:
Anna-Marie McLemore
Gabe Cole Novoa
Tehlor Kay Mejia
Aidan Thomas
A. E. Bross
Isabel Canas
Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Natalia Hernandez
There are many more, but those are the ones within immediate reach on my Kindle and TBR pile

Georgina Kiersten @ingloriousgigi.bsky.social · 9d

Just a reminder that Freydis Moon's new book is going to released tomorrow and that they are NOT Latinx or Mexican. They are a serial Brownfisher who loves to appropriate and steal from BIPOC people and be a cyberbully on top of that.

Please give your money to real Latinx Authors instead.

Things are really bad out here and they are just getting worse.

Only thing we can do is hold on to each other.

Every month is a struggle I am running behind and relying on mutual aid and whatever gigs I can scrape together to keep us going as I work on the next thing.

That is my reality and even though I have a lot of shame around that, that's the reality of a lot of people.
