I feel like it's worth stating again by the way but when I ask that you read The Hundred Years' War on Palestine by Rashid Khalidi, it isn't so that you will be more convinced that what Israel is doing is bad. I am assuming you already know this. The point is that Zionists' biggest tool in their arsenal is the obfuscation of truth. Every moment this genocide is going on, the major news networks of your country (I'm talking mainly global north/"western"/english speaking countries as well as western europe) are feeding zionist propaganda in some form or other to your friends, family, neighbors, coworkers, bosses, employees, roommates, etc. We need to be able to combat this with fact, we need to convince them to read about Palestine as well, to learn its history and its peoples struggle. We cannot simply live while so many others die. We cannot horde the information we learn for ourselves. Knowledge must be shared and it must be done in a continuous, ongoing process if it is to matter. Please.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness.

The Locked Tomb Series Summary:
The “Lesbian Necromancers in Space” book series
The Murderbot Diaries Summary:
In a corporate-dominated space-faring future, planetary missions must be approved and supplied by the Company. For their own safety, exploratory teams are accompanied by Company-supplied security androids. But in a society where contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder, safety isn’t a primary concern. On a distant planet, a team of scientists is conducting surface tests, shadowed by their Company-supplied ‘droid--a self-aware SecUnit that has hacked its own governor module and refers to itself (though never out loud) as “Murderbot.” Scornful of humans, Murderbot wants is to be left alone long enough to figure out who it is, but when a neighboring mission goes dark, it's up to the scientists and Murderbot to get to the truth.

Huffington Post called him “a master of the abandoned”—and for good reason. The “artivist” known only as Seph Lawless has spent the last ten years photo-documenting the America that was left behind in the throes of economic instability and overall decline—decrepit shopping malls, houses, factories, even amusement parks. Through nearly two hundred gorgeous and elegiac photographs, Abandoned details Lawless’s journey into what was once the very heart of American entertainment: the amusement park. Lawless visits deserted parks across the country, capturing in stark detail their dilapidated state, natural overgrowth, and obvious duality of sad and playful symbolism. Previously self-published as Bizarro, this updated edition of Lawless’s photographic tribute to decaying American amusement parks contains new content and a new foreword.

Wall-to-wall books, comfortable seating, warm colouring and a fireplace are all one could want in a library. This one is a good updated version of a library-family room with its television, paintings and generally relaxed air.
English Country Style, 1986

New commission!
I had started this in good time, then impulsively peeled off my screen protector because it got too dirty, not realising that I’m now so used to drawing with one on that I was incapable of continuing without ordering another, so I just got finished in time to retain my coveted Etsy perfect shipping record. Stressful!
Which of these have you read?
