"The Mastery of Love" is a book by Don Miguel Ruiz. It teaches us how to have good relationships with others and ourselves. The book says we should love and accept ourselves first, so we can love others better. It talks about how to stop feeling scared or jealous and how to love and be loved. It also tells us that people show and feel love in different ways. It helps us learn how to talk nicely and set good limits in relationships.

Some lessons from the book:

To have good relationships, you need to love and accept yourself.

You can learn to overcome fear and stop it from ruining your relationships.

Real love doesn't depend on conditions. It's not about what someone does for you.

Good communication is important. You should talk honestly and nicely to others.

Understand your feelings and thoughts so you can have better relationships.

Holding onto anger and resentment hurts you. Forgiving is good for your heart.

It's okay to say no and set limits. This helps you have balanced relationships.

Love is stronger than fear. Choose love in your actions and thoughts.

Focus on the moment. Don't worry too much about the past or future.

Loving is a skill you can practice and get better at over time.

The book has short chapters with things to do and think about. It helps us use these lessons in our own lives. Read this book if you want to learn how to make relationships better and feeling good about yourself.

That’s right! We’re less than a month away from the release of THE MONSTROUS ADVENTURES OF MUMMY MAN AND WAFFLES, the all-new original middle-grade series from Harper Kids, written by me, and illustrated by the incredible Robb Mommaerts! It’s like Halloween in book form! Full of silly, spooky scares and over-the-top monster action, MUMMY MAN has been brewing in my brain for nearly a decade. I’m so excited to be able to share it with you soon! Watch this space for more as we get closer to the release date.

Meanwhile, if you wanted to pre-order the book (which would be amazing and a huge help), you could do so here. Thanks, and now back to our usual nonsense.

I’m convinced if they turn this book into a movie that only Glen Powell could possibly play Rye Walsh

He’s an academy graduate

He’s a naval aviator who ends up flying helicopters

He’s a Lieutenant Commander

His call sign is Riot

Hollywood get on this ASAP, this boy needs a new plane movie!!

People still use tumblr, right? For me instagram has started to feel a bit unpleasant with the algorithm, AI and restricting political content and all that. I don't like X and I don't quite get how to use bluesky. So I hope to find the joys of social media again here. I know the fandoms, conversation about books and fan art has been amazing. I hope it still is.

I read this and thought "is this an old timey way to say gay, or is he queer as in happy and under the unicorn as in scottish?".

Anyway, he's gay, he was a knight (until a few days before his execution), he fought against slavery and for indigenous people, he is Roger Casement!

In other words, I finnaly finished reading this book and it is very good:

Reading Good Omens I thought of something

What if angels and demons don't know the difference between good and evil? The knowledge of it is gained by eating an apple from the Garden of Eden.

When Crowley and Aziraphale meet, Aziraphale says "It must be bad." Implying that he doesn't know if it truly was bad.

What if Crowley ate an apple? What if he's the only one who knows what's actually good or bad?
