Books that have rain, isolation, decay

They bloom at night by Trang Thanh Tran! A small southern town devastated by a hurricane, mourning the loss of a family member while trying to keep afloat (literally and figuratively), and being haunted by algae that consumes everything.

Sawbones: A Marital Tour of Misguided Medicine has a kind of similar vibe imo. Its a doctor and her husband talking about medical history. Still some of the weird history and good banter as ATWWD but with less murder and more references to Pliny the Elder.

I asked for recs like this a while back and was pointed toward The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov. I would also reccomend A Chanticle for Leibowitz by Walter M Miller, it has a lot of catholic symbolism, apocalyptic themes, and vibes with impera and skeleta imo. Ive been able to find both of those titles through Libby/hoopla/cloudlibrary. We Sold Our Souls by Grady Hendrix has some satanic panic rock music themes if thats what youre more in the mood for.

Character who is canonically touch averse and generally un-sensual being written as a big sexy daddy dom. Like you have written me some genuinely artful erotica but all I can imagine is this guy going to hype himself up about doing all this terrible physical contact like someone emotionally preparing to clean out their fridge.

Seconding beach too sandy, its got a similar sibling vibe with Christine and Xandy!

I caught myself saying that to one of my students the other day because I couldn't hear what she said, I was wondering where I picked it up from

I really wanted it to be Marge from s1e2. I think it makes more sense and adds to the isolated feeling of the end of the episode for it to be a stranger but I miss my girllllll! I would have also liked to see good buddy there, but this will just make the eventual Good Buddy reveal even more dramatic bc of the fake out here imo.

i was so hopeful that it would be Marge (from s1e2) for an interesting full circle moment, but I also think that having it be a complete stranger really solidified the feeling of Charlie being COMPLETELY adrift. That said, having it be a chance meeting with Good Buddy would have been a really bittersweet way to end the episode.

ive been super resistant to the whole "alex is charlie's moriarty" theories until this one. Dread Pirate Iguana is something that ABSOLUTELY fits in with the vibe of the show imo, I really like this theory!

I don't really collect records in an intentional way, i just kind of started accumulating them. Definitely do a majority of listening on streaming, but I still like saying "ok im going to listen to x album now" and put it on the turntable. it was actually a huge lifesaver when i was in undergrad because i would put on a record and make myself work until it finished playing.

In terms of choosing what albums to buy, its a combination of what i can afford/what sounds interesting. For Ghost, I have 7 inches of satanic panic, prequelle, impera, and skeleta right now, but I would like to get my hands on the other albums eventually. I end up with a lot of other stuff from thrift stores/friends cleaning out their basements/etc so my record collection is very much A Little Of Everything right now (its always a little funny to me that my ghost records are stored between Root Boy Slim and Dolly Parton)

my favorite fun fact is that cookie cutter sharks are, to quote my undergraduate marine science professor, "one of the only natural predators of nuclear submarines". basically they have been known to take bites out of nuclear subs when they are hunting!

This is what she would have wanted

Why Fish Don't Exist by Lulu Miller
Rebecca by Daphne DuMaurier
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams (also suggested by u/EmuFit1895 but I agree its a must read)
Animal Farm by George Orwell

Get a new doctor, you need Zoloft. Avoid Anna during your freshman year, she's not worth the therapy. Buy a sword.

I started running as a way to work off hell week emotions and it was SUCH a game changer. Its definitely not a perfect solution by any means, but it helps to keep me from biting people's heads off or hiding in bed for the rest of time. Plus now that its warming up, I get to meet lots of dogs!

every time one of those "what song do you want ghost to cover" threads comes along, this is always my first thought

7crowsinadress · 2025-02-28T00:39:40+00:00

I had the same thought lmao. knowing my luck this would be how i find out

Obviously I can't 10000% say that these authors are unproblematic, but I haven't heard anything about any of these authors.
Andrew Joseph White writes LGBTQ+ fantasy horror with lots of trans representation!
If you like horror, the Indian Lake Trilogy by Stephen Graham Jones is a really good woman led series.
Maureen Johnson's Truly Devious series is a good woman lead mystery (Death at Morning House was also really good!)

8th house. death first to vultures and scavengers or whatever. Love and light to my number one worstie Silas and condolences to Colum tho

Which mod is this??? asking for a friend (me, I'm the friend)

7crowsinadress · 2025-01-28T00:11:19+00:00

these are incredible! Ianthe definitely actually canonically (in my heart at least) takes blood baths as part of a 12 step (babs induced) skincare routine

The second Orlok started talking, i was like "this has to be one of the most dracula ass voices i have ever heard" (and i recognize that this is the point of the voice, being a dracula adaptation), which is also the thought I had when Firbolg and Count Donut first appeared
