Recently been reading The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde and I had to make this.
SPOILERS - Basil did not only get rejected by the love of his life after confessing his love, he got FRIENDZONED.
'... You and I are friends, Basil, and we must always remain so.' - Dorian Gray

Big shout out and many thanks to @because-its-eurovision for this! It’s been a difficult couple of weeks and finding this in the mail really cheered me up! ♡
Here is a very quick, cartoony drawing of Niko to show my gratitude ♡

just saw a video recommended to me about "the kinks as a reactionary band" that was over 2 hours and i never saw the channel before in my life. was quite sure it wasn't worth a time investment if it had such an attention-grabbing title that didn't really say anything so i went to the channel by itself. lots of worrying titles/thumbnails. then i went to their link twitter account just to make sure they were a racist and i didn't even scroll down that far to see that they said people with anauralia/aphantasia (no internal monologue/pictures in your head) deserve to be enslaved.

lost about 30 pounds in the last few months and its actually so fucked up to be aware of how much more like.. normal and free i feel when being outside and doing regular activities. never been so acutely aware of the effects of fatphobia than by losing a ton of weight and having all that pressure and shame and self-consciousness kinda just. stop.

yeah please recommend the book to us
im not sure which book this is referring to but i went back through the last couple posts lol and i think u mean the detective one? "last smile in sunder city" is a book by luke arnold about a private eye in a fantasy world where all the magic has been drained out and yeah he does live over a shitty restaurant and get up every morning like "all right, time for some stale coffee, some undercooked eggs, and some mushy tomatoes, because this man deserves an income and i don't deserve a better breakfast." i would describe this detective as both sad, guilty, AND wet. overall assessment of the writing is that the plot is pretty strong; worldbuilding also strong in most places, prose....ehhh, it's readable. i'm very picky about prose though. i found it 'just okay' in most places, then i'd turn a corner and it'd be briefly very brilliant before going back to 'more or less good, idk.' it does improve as the book goes on. my other biggest reserve is that he tries to tackle a LOT of societal ills all at once, only sometimes succeeding fully, but that's the risk you run when you invent a setting wholesale and then try to talk about all the stuff that could go wrong with it. haven't read the second book, but i do plan to someday; i'd give it an overall 3.5-4.5 stars. for enthusiasm alone, though, i'd give it a full five. it's a book that, whatever it's flaws and merits AS a book, is mostly suffused with the sense that the writer was REALLY excited about the material, and that alone for me is worth structural weakness. you can feel the enthusiasm when you read it (oh boy! i'm building a character! wheeeeee i'm giving him a backstory. ohoho i just learned i can play with the narrative style and now i'm doing an Interlude), and that is what i think i enjoyed most.
