If any of y’all didn’t know, there’s a free online library, aka

https://openlibrary.org/

and I found like, twelve ebooks I’ve been wanting to read on there, and blasted through like three of them during the course of a boring-ass shift.

Guy there are books on magic on there.

There’s books on EVERYTHING there!

Wouldn’t this be bad for authors though? or is this like a normal library where they get /some/ money?

It’s like a normal library. Libraries can upload ebooks there and let people check them out through openlibrary if you have an openlibrary account, or it can point you to nearby libraries that have physical copies of the book for you to go and check out. If you check out books via openlibrary it counts towards the count of books checked out from the library that uploaded the ebook, and they can use it in their reporting and funding and stuff.

There’s like 150 libraries partnered with openlibrary so far.

They also have copies that you can check out if you are print-disabled.

You can also ‘sponsor a book’, which means you pay the cost of the ebook you want openlibrary to acquire, and then they can add it to their collection and let people check it out.

I sure did!

And click on a title even if it says ‘no ebook available’ and scroll down, ‘cause sometimes that just means “all of the copies of ebooks are checked out right now but you can get on the waitlist when it’s back in”

This is part of the Internet Archive! I’ve posted about this before. Please go, it’s amazing.

Knives Out hints at the self-righteous Thrombeys’ racist views of Latino people and immigrants in general well before they target Marta and threaten to have her mother detained. In the film’s early flashbacks, the Thrombeys each referred to Marta’s country of origin as a different place. To one, she was a lovely young woman from Ecuador; to another, Marta hailed from Paraguay. Their cluelessness is played for comedic relief as the film’s tension builds, and Johnson’s message is clear: The Thrombeys’ ignorance is the joke, not Marta’s heritage.

Omg when I saw this in theaters with my mom, the two of is laughed SO HARD everytime someone made that mistake. And we were basically the only ones.

Freelancing in technical theater means you’re on a lot of different email lists. People need a crew, they send out an email, you respond with your availability. Now, most people start these with things like “hey folks” or “hi everyone”. Neal is not most people.

His openers started off innocent enough.

Then, he started to push boundaries.

And as you can see, it has spiraled out of control since then.

Tag yourselves. I’m the anteater in a suit who thinks he can pass.

Re-blogging ‘cause I think everyone could use this at one point in there life or another.

oh my god i could go on and on about this. there is so much i missed out on growing up because i was scared to do what and go where i wanted that when i finally did all i had was that one great memory instead of the multiple i could’ve had if i’d just said fuck it sooner

if there is anything in this world you want— don’t let your fear of people and their reactions/opinions dictate whether or not you go after/do exactly what YOU WANT!

Something dramatic: *happens*

Jaskier: *gasps* *dramatic lute music*

Yennefer: oh hell yes, can you do that every time

Geralt: don't encourage him

Jaskier: *sad lute music*

Jaskier play Despacito Jaskier play my entrance music Jaskier I'm about to Slay A Monster can you not Jaskier stops plucking the Jaws chords Yen: continue man Yen and Jaskier solidarity

Geralt: I’m a witcher I want nothing... I feel nothing...

Yen: that’s so sad... Jaskier play Despacito 

Geralt: don’t you dare

Jaskier: *already playing it*

I add this because I think everyone needs the reference of how Despacito plays on a lute.

Beneath the Snow: A Spread To Reveal What is Waiting to Emerge

In the part of the Pacific Northwest where I live, it’s pretty much the dead of winter. My backyard is lying beneath about a foot and a half of snow right now, and we’re slated to get a good deal more before spring comes. It’s dark by five o’clock this time of year, and before the solstice it felt like it was already nighttime at three thirty.

Though it sometimes feels like everything around me is just dead, winter is a time for rest and dormancy, for hidden things to wait until spring, when they come out in full force. I designed this spread after a barrage of snowstorms came one after another, to find out what is hidden or dormant in my life.
