Did you enjoy it? Iโ€™ve read it a couple times. Itโ€™s mammoth.

Cover of Cicada by Tanya Pell. It is a black background with a white diagram of a cicada with lines pointing to bits of the cicada and names them like the nodus, peripheral membrane and leading edge. Some names are blacked out and replaced with rage, pure evil smiley face and hunger.

I finished Cicada by Tanya Pell. It was awesome from start to finish I loved it so much! The main character was great and her asshole boyfriend was super hateable. How they got out of the predicament was very smart and that ending though! Wonderful!

My son got an early birthday present from Japan. Apparently Scooby wants it instead

"O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?"

The book is simmering in my sub conscious and maybe if i think about it a lot Iโ€™ll solve all my plot problems ๐Ÿ˜‚

They look great but if itโ€™s always gonna remind you of inadequate men then I vote unravelling and making something different. If it doesnโ€™t remind you then finish them up ๐Ÿ˜Š

My fav is French earl grey with sugar and no milk. I prefer bagged just cause itโ€™s easier but Iโ€™ll go loose leaf if the flavour I want isnโ€™t bagged. We have a shop here called T2 and itโ€™s fantastic, so many different teas!

Are all the killer VHS books written by different people? Are they unconnected? Cause I bought Cicada but now Iโ€™m worried I should read the others first?

Love how they did things which have been proven to not work and called it community policing.

Raise the Age NSW
YouTube video by UnLtd: power to help Raise the Age NSW

This video starts its run on TV across NSW about now. Most people in NSW donโ€™t know we are arresting, strip searching and locking up ten year olds. We hope soon they will, and we can make the NSW Government do better for kids and communities. youtu.be/XEYJ0tz2qgo

Writers: yes, you are still a "real" writer if you
- have never published anything
- have no readers
- didn't write anything this month
- didn't write anything this year
- can't articulate words anymore
- can only float and mournfully wail
- were murdered ten years ago on this very spot

Cover of So Witches We Became by Jill Baguchinsky. Pictures is an illustration of a womanโ€™s bust. She has her eyes closed and thin tree roots are coming from her eyelashes. She is surrounded by roots and branches. Sheโ€™s mostly different coloured pinks and purples.

I finished this book today. It was awesome. Excellent storytelling, wonderfully satisfying ending and I just loved the rage. Definitely a good for her horror.

If something is bad in the US, and you have no information on the cause, guessing "Reagan did it" will be right a shocking amount of the time.

Iโ€™ve almost finished Agatha All Along so I thought I might try and watch all the Marvel stuff in chronological order because I have watched maybe 4 of the movies and a few tv shows. So hopefully a hyperfixation kicks in and I can get at least a quarter of the way through.
