Ooooooooh!!!!!!!! I don't think I have read this one (lol or I forgot it which means much the same thing!). Thank you so much!!!!! I am excited to read it!!!!!

Oooh this is fun!!!! 56! Thank you!

Omg!!!!! These are so gorgeous!!!!

A book cover for Bodies of Magic by Freya Markse. A deep blue building with a quadrangle, spires and cloisters fills the lower half of the cover with the title text in gold across it. Behind that, the upper background is grey and stormy with a prominent twisting white design that could be a bare tree rising up from the main tower OR an anatomical diagram of the lungs. Centered above the lung-tree are the words DO NO HARM in stark white. Honestly: a complete banger of a cover. Doesn't it make you want to preorder? Yes, yes it does.

BODIES OF MAGIC, out Sept 2026: Grey's Anatomy meets A Deadly Education, a mystery set during the final exam week of a magical medical school. (Or: five queer nerds solve a murder and have some feelings.)

Cover design by Jamie Stafford-Hill.

Me whenever my friends send me a post about Heated Rivalry calling it an HBO show

Boss moved a weekly meeting cuz she has an HR meeting at the same time. I KNOW she means human resources but I am (very jealously) imagining my boss & the other mgmt talking Shane's freckles, Ilya's ass, the cottage, & what they think want for S2. While drinking ginger ale & eating tuna melts obvs

So excited for this!!!!!!

Awwww thank you!!!!!!!

I am so embarrassed about how long the gaps between updates have been but here's another chapter of Falling Petals!

Exactly!!!!

I more than liked it but it wasn't the same level as CQL. But I have only watched it once. I hope its success leads to more m/m adaptations so we can one day see a KJ Charles show/movie!!!
What did you think?

I finally watched the Canadian hockey yaoi!

A drawing of a straw goat laying on the ground with an annoying expression. With the text: “merry splootmas! And a happy 2026!”

The goat has fallen

BREAKING NEWS: Gävlebocken has collapsed due to strong winds! Just like when it was devoured by birds in '23, nature steps in when man fails to step up!

To all the people enjoying Heated Rivalry and wishing there were more shows like that, may I introduce you to: Thai BL. I am currently watching 8 shows. Every day of the week is a gay show. So much gay.

Yes!!!! I agree!!!

Right!?!? So good! I love how Marske writes magic!!

Oh yay!! I hope you like them!

Oh that's so funny! I discovered Kid Kapichi because YouTube rec'd me New England after listening to so many Bob Vylan songs!!

Oh that sounds delightful!!!

Ooooh all of those things sound awesome!!!!

I really need to watch Heated Rivalry!! The Double sounds great!!!

Cool!!!! I loved Copper Script! I have all of us murders on hold from the library! I have heard good things about Ballad of Sword and Wine!!!

In terms of music - I obsessively listened to CMAT's new album. Also loved Cain Culto, Kneecap, Bob Vylan, Lankum, Otyken, Pomme, Nemhasis, and more I am forgetting
