The homophobic vase and Catch 22
So in my senior year of high school I had to pick a book from a list and read it, and I chose the book Catch 22. Now I'm going to be honest I only read the first 70 pages or so so I don't know the whole thing, but I did learn what a catch 22 is if someone were to reference something being a catch 22.
So, in mag 38 when the vase creature took the book, I started wondering why the reference to Catch 22 specifically, and I figured it out. The way the vase affects memories creates a catch 22.
In the book the way it is explained that I felt made sense to me was this: The setting of the book is the military, and within the book they make it clear there's a distinct notion that if you want to be in the military you must be insane because it sucks. The only way to leave the army is by proving insanity, but by asking to leave you are proving you are sane because sane people would ask to leave, since we already said the insane would want to stay. It's a catch 22, a situation with no escape because it has two conflicting conditions.
The vase takes an item the main owner knew existed, but once the item is missing anyone else other than him does not remember it existing. So it puts into question the existence of the object in the first place, you have a memory of it so it must have existed, but you can no longer find it and anyone you ask about it says it doesn't exist anymore, so it couldn't have existed despite you remembering it existed.
The vase stealing a copy of Catch 22 is a catch 22.

today's observation is: this is the shelves we use at archives, typically. i imagine the institute does NOT in fact use these.
No way that would actually entail the archives performing their intended purpose as defined by the word archive

Laughed to myself when walking past a flower shop with this kind of vase in the display window and had to explain to my mum why it was funny
On an unrelated note, she's slightly concerned about my interests.

sometimes a vase is something that can be sooo homophobic
[ID: Two digital illustrations of a big blue vase with a white pattern. In the first one, there is a hand reaching out of it. In the second one there‘s a speech bubble above the vase, which says: “I’m going to eat your husband” in capital letters. /END ID]

Love you homophobic vase, I'm sorry I got talked out of labeling you just that. Did this cool quote from Salesa instead.
I have another for mag 47, Michael has so many good lines but I haven't come up with a design yet.
One of those basic episodes with a straight banger quote in it, "NO ONE IS COMING" is so raw and out of nowhere.
