“HELP ME.” -Chaos
Reading Update
The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You’re Supposed To Be and Embrace Who You Are by Brene Brown. It was good, but I kept getting tripped up by her insistence on faith being nonnegotiable. I adore her podcast, tho!

*drowsing* -Mayhem

“Why you gotta be this way, Mom?!??” -Chaos
Reading Update
The Color of Law: The Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America by Richard Rothstein. Be prepared to be horrified and enraged.
The Library of the Unwritten (Hell’s Library #1) by AJ Hackwith. Good enough to suck me in, even though I never shook the comparisons to another series or two.
Flashback photo of Mayhem from 2015!
*INTENSITY INTENSIFIES*

*SLURRRRRRRRRRRRP* -Chaos
Keep your fingers crossed on that! 😀
Reading Update
1919 by Eve L Ewing. An exploration of the Chicago Race Riot of 1919 (part of the “Red Summer” in the US) via haunting poetry.
Electric Arches by Eve L Ewing. Some more haunting poetry from Ewing.
Other Worlds Than These edited by John Joseph Adams. Pretty good collection of parallel world and portal stories that started out a lot stronger than it finished.
“Neener, neener, neener!” -Chaos

“WHAT are you doing, Mom???!” -Chaos
New releases: Smart Bitches (romance), Tor.com (horror/genre-benders)
Linkity from Smart Bitches. And from the Pen Addict.
“Notes from Isolation: A Soundtrack for Now“.
“…simultaneously adorable and dystopian.”
A wonderful last contact story.
Variations of Fawkes the Phoenix.
Lord of the Rings game, but you play as the ring (not a real game, alas).
“2020 summed up in book titles”.
Well, it’s the reason I have black cats, so!
“Theory: Nobody who writes a physics textbook gives any fucks”.
The xkcd dialect quiz. Hover cursor/long-press for caption.
And xkcd’s ultimate all-in-one printer. Again with the hovering and such.
“Thanksgiving-flavored” candy corn… And $49 pink pineapples. And desk tents. Least usable keyboard ever? Disturbing blazer is disturbing.
Reading Update
Camouflage: The Hidden Lives of Autistic Women by Sarah Bargiela & Sophie Standing. Cute short comic that combines some stats and some personal stories.
So You Want to Talk About Race by Ijeoma Oluo. This was very good – I liked how she split topics into chapters (for easy reference later), and she covered some things I hadn’t seen covered in my previous reading.
Ballistic Kiss (Sandman Slim #11) by Richard Kadrey. A solid addition to the series. Was Stark more socially awkward in this than usual?!
“Shake my paw?” -Chaos
Welcome back to Art Journaling Monday! I’ve included some of my recent favorites below. Plus a bonus selfie.
“Bet you blink before I do!” -Chaos
Reading Update
The Unkindest Tide (October Daye #13) by Seanan McGuire. At last we find out what the Luidaeg has been darkly hinting at regarding the Selkies!
Witches of Lychford, 
The Lost Child of Lychford, 
A Long Day in Lychford, 
The Lights Go Out in Lychford (Witches of Lychford 1-4) by Paul Cornell. I was kinda sucked into this series of novellas until the fourth book ended with a cliffhanger. HULKSMASH.
“…zzzzzzzzzzzzzz…” -Mayhem and Chaos
