Recently told my mum that I can't pick up her calls from 9am-5pm unless it is an emergency

So far this month her urgent calls have been to find out:
1. The name of a tune she had no lyrics, beat or melody for
2. How to become a tiktok influencer
3. What a twink is

Sorry to say we're closed today (Tuesday) ๐Ÿ˜”
Someone has bricked our window, robbed the cash drawer and, bizarrely, the Bluetooth speaker ๐ŸŽถ

All the books are safe! Turns out robbers dont read. If you wanna help out this struggling queer bookshop our website is still open

Merry bloody Christmas ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

Some friends gave me a pin inspired by The Strawberry Thief, which in turn inspired this embroidery on an old dress

Science and animal nerds: check out this fun game! Every day, a new mystery animal is posted. You have 20 guesses to narrow down which species it is. (Phylogenetic trees are HARD, y'all.)

Many houseplants lit by natural sunlight against a white background. All plants are sitting on 2 wooden and 1 metal shelfing units. Plants include large creeping and hanging philodendrons, climbing monstera and epipremnum, pothos, syngonium and alocasia. All plants are in various shades of pink or dark, light and neon green. Some have silver streaks and some have fenestration.
