October is Substance Use Prevention Month & stories of addiction and recovery remind us that healing is not linear, and that there is no single β€œright” path to recovery. Representation gives language, visibility, and hope to those who may feel alone in their journey. Here are some recs! #booksky

I think phoenix has more leeway, the nature of it is transformative and connects to a well-known phrase. I'd say you're safe with that over many other creatures.

Dragons are a big pull for readers. If it was only symbolic, you'd need to make it very clear in the book blurb or be prepared for some harsh disappointment.

Ray Bradbury comes to mind, but I could be wrong and just not searched the depths of the internet.

Entry of a dictionary describing the fictitious word Stresslaxing, aka being stressed that relaxing makes you more stressed because you're not working on what is making you stressed.

Another weekend to procrastinate under the excuse of taking care of nothing...

That was the most I laughed at something so gory. Stevens could read the phone book onscreen and I'd be riveted.

πŸ’― Their "values" have a funny way of lining up with monetary gains.

Nexstar Will Not Air β€˜Jimmy Kimmel Live!’, Joining Sinclair in Boycotting ABC Show Over Host’s β€˜Ill-Timed and Insensitive’ Kirk Comments Nexstar Media said it will continue to preempt 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' after ABC will bring his show back. Sinclair also said it will keep Kimmel off the air.

Hold back nothing, Kimmel. #Nextstar wants capitulation for their deals, and pretends it's about "values". Orange idiot can cry all he wants to, and #Sinclair can go suck his tiny mushroom.

Didn't even think about that factor with audiobooks, but it completely makes sense! It's also great for fantasy stories with unique names... I'll hear it and think oh THAT'S how you pronounce that word πŸ˜†.

Excited for you! I've been getting into audiobooks more when my commute to work changed. It is fascinating to hear how the actor's performance adds to the words, especially for books I'd previously read.

2/2
Slowly hope is unburied
Fear fades and tears dry
Our twin towers did not die for you
They lived for us
Every life that fell with them
Still lives with us
Every hero who scrabbled up those stairs
Still lives with us
Hate cannot win because it never truly fights
Only love triumphs
imperfect, free

A photo of the World Trade Center's Twin Towers and the NYC skyline.

You ripped our dreams out of the sky
plunged it into our heart
A weapon made of our own design
We screamed until we could not breathe
smothered by ashen sorrow
Because hate cannot accept why it is not free
Why it cannot laugh at itself or wear what it pleases

Kudos for not slapping the nitwit or leveling him with the following:
This conversation counts as trauma.
Listening to you was a test of survival.
Enduring your insufferable misogyny was a good start.

Never thought to include a note when you've invented a locale, but not a bad idea. People do get precious about their areas, more so if they believe it's been misrepresented. The point that it's fictional is lost on them.

Stars in the night sky
do not shine in order to block out the light from other stars,
But to prove they existed long after they are gone.

They'd like us to be sperms receptacles, when they can't abide by their own standards of abstinence. They can all go fuck a couch cushion and make it a "host" for their dried-up spunk.
