sigh. pricefield has rotted my brain.

my current vocal stim being "his voice was cool and Bostonian, almost British" Donna Tartt what have you done

most people’s advice are fear based so you might as well develop intimacy with your own heart

it always comes back to the art of trying anyway.

Into the blue

reading is the closest thing to leaving without going anywhere

people aren’t even doing the bare minimum. the discomfort of giving up certain products is NOTHING compared to the real mental and physical suffering the oppressed have no choice but to go through. empathy has limits for some, it seems.

one of the main reasons why you’re able to read peacefully in bed instead of burying the unrecognisable dead bodies of your loved ones is geographical luck. you have to feel some obligation, in your privilege, to boycott the oppressors and share the oppressed’s voices, #booktwt

Children of immigrants’ books lists are another thing istg.

@sullenpoetry thank you! I’ll surely make a thread while reading it, I stopped at the beginning of chapter 2, something about a camaro and a guy named ronan… sounds fun!

@vonseul omg ur gonna have the best time im excited for u!

5 books to get to know me!!

jude duarte and cardan greenbriar, they’re talking to you.

@buginthewild So are mine! 🤍

@vonseul Yup 😭 my dms are always open if you ever wanna talk!

Im tired of being lonely both irl and online. I miss being a teenager and belonging in both real life and online communities

artemis 2 absolutely blew our minds. re-entry sounds worrying but fingers crossed for intregrity!

@dvlcimermaid that’s such a stupid thing to do… hating how they’re forcing people to buy new (thank you for sharing the info!)

@vonseul amazon are discontinuing support for older gen kindles, so users won't be able to get access from books on the amazon store to their old kindles. it's a shame!

also heard about the kindle drama. i need everyone to jailbreak their kindles NOW

"if there’s a will there’s a way" and it’s a someone reading on ao3 on a billboard in times square.

@buginthewild thank you! I’m so excited to read more of her works, so far the secret history is tickling my brain just right!!

@vonseul The goldfinch, also by donna tartt Its not the same genre or vibe as the secret history but it’s so beautifully written, and it really stays with you

@buginthewild I feel the same way, it seems to just get harder to keep in touch with people, especially the busier you get, everyone has their own plan etc… but I have hope, although elon ruined this app we rlly are united in our hatred against him haha

@vonseul Heyy! Yeah its partly that, and partly the fact that it was easier to make friends when I was younger, and twitter was easier to navigate and make friends on before elon musk ruined it lol 😭
