I read it long back and remember feeling so good.. the thing with good reads is that it always makes you wish you could read it for the first time!!

😍 I can’t wait to keep reading. I only started the first chapter and I already love everything about it.

Just finished season 2 episode 23 of dungeons and daddies, and Anthony’s description of what the Doodler is afraid of and what it’s feeling absolutely killed me,,,It’s such a great show

okay hii, I saw that other polite anon asking you for permission to borrow your wonderful 212th medics and it struck me – I would also love to if you were cool with it. 💖 I have a big oncology-focused medical wip in the works and would absolutely love to work them into it with credit. they are the shining stars of your worldbuilding and I would adore having them alongside my medics. 🫶

have the best day!! 💗

Oooh, by all means, please do!! If you feel like it, please drop a link when the fic goes up- I'm tremendously excited to see what you do with them <3333

The Greatest Thing by Sarah Winifred Searle

(2022)

From the Publisher:

This tender YA comic is perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier's Drama and Shannon Hale and LeUyen Pham's Real Friends who are ready to graduate to their first teen graphic novel.

It's the first day of Grade Ten, and Winifred is going to reinvent herself. Now that her two best (and only) friends have transferred to a private school, Win must navigate high school on her own. Luckily, she isn't alone for long. In art class, she meets Oscar and April. They don't look or act like the typical teenagers in her town: they're creative, a little rebellious and seem comfortable in their own skin in a way that Win can only dream of.

But even though Winifred is breaking out of her shell, there's one secret she can't bear to admit to April and Oscar, or even to herself - and this lie threatens everything. Win needs to face her own truths, but she doesn't need to do it alone. Through the healing power of clandestine sleepovers, op-shopping and zine publishing, Win finds and accepts what it means to be herself.

'Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. This book will stay with you forever.' Jessica Walton, author of Stars In Their Eyes

'A heartfelt tale of loneliness, love and friendship. I couldn't put it down.' Alison Evans, award-winning author of Ida and Euphoria Kids

Reluctant Reader Wednesday: The Greatest Thing by Sarah Winifred Searle

When Winifred makes two new friends, Oscar and April, it feels like sophomore year won’t be such a disaster after all. As they become closer friends and combine their talents to create a zine, April starts to open up more and is willing to share more of herself. But some of her anxieties are buried so deep that even April can’t find them, and the worries she can’t talk about might be enough to destroy her new friendships.

Give this graphic novel to teens who enjoy quiet and thoughtful stories about LGBT characters, friendship, creativity, anxiety, and secrets.

My beautiful June, 2023 book haul! 💚

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

i made a variant of [link: two cakes] to illustrate a related principle

the amount of ways we have to qualify the geoncide in gaza in order to get people to care is actually sickening to me. “it’s a feminist issue!” “it’s a disabilities issue!” “it’s an environmental issue!” like i’m sorry but even if this was happening solely to able bodied men and was causing no harm to the environment, it would still be wrong because it’s a genocide and these people are being bombed and killed and starved every fucking day. you shouldn’t need an extra label to give you a reason to care about people that are dying.

Neopets discourse is always funny to me because whenever drama starts up 90% of the time it's over something that's just objectively really silly

For example, right now there's neo-billionaires threatening to quit the site over a rare item being released, which wouldn't be funny except the item in question is a tiny pea wearing a Santa hat

the fact that shakespeare was a playwright is sometimes so funny to me. just the concept of the "greatest writer of the English language" being a random 450-year-old entertainer, a 16th cent pop cultural sensation (thanks in large part to puns & dirty jokes & verbiage & a long-running appeal to commoners). and his work was made to be watched not read, but in the classroom teachers just hand us his scripts and say "that's literature"

just...imagine it's 2450 A.D. and English Lit students are regularly going into 100k debt writing postdoc theses on The Simpsons screenplays. the original animation hasn't even been preserved, it's literally just scripts and the occasional SDH subtitles.txt. they've been republished more times than the Bible
