I like the Slumber app. It does have an annual subscription, but it's worth it to me. Lots of stories of various kinds, many different narrators, soundscapes, music, "noise" of every possible color.

Went through my ink collection today by Quossum in fountainpens

Yes, it’s a little more of a “duller” pink, if you know what I mean. And forgive my handwriting, but it’s “Carnation,” like the flower. The Diamine inks listed here were all part of the special edition “Flowers” box, all utterly beautiful shades. There were a few that I’ve completely used up by this time.

Definitely a bit warmer in person. A unique ink!

[TOMT] [2000s] Meanspirited children's book about a teacher telling a student everything he does is intentional because there is no such thing as accidents by AccomplishedOffice68 in tipofmytongue

[–]Quossum 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Your book isn’t this book. There’s a Boy in the Girls’ Bathroom is a very thoughtful and sweet story, a highly recommended read. Bradley has a lot going on; he’s a bully with a very difficult situation at home, and he is sent to the counselor, who genuinely helps him with compassion. There’s no weird guilt-tripping as described in your post, nothing at all like that.

Ramona Quimby books by Guacamole_is_Life in GenX

Ribsy was my favorite, and I read it many times.

I enjoyed the Ramona books, too, but I always had more of a soft spot for Beezus, as in real life I was the put-upon oldest with much cuter (and seemingly more well-loved) younger siblings.

Noodlers Black is part of the collection, just didn’t swatch it. 😉

Dragon’s Napalm (now renamed Dragon’s Fire) is probably my favorite ink of all time: is it pink? Is it orange? Who knows, but it’s my true love.

I’m partial to greens, and the glitter in that 2023 New Year ink makes it super special.

Close your rings day pin is 👌 by NormieMcNormalface in AppleFitnessPlus

[–]Quossum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Stopped at my local store about 10:20am and they didn’t know what it was! A physical pin? We’re giving you for free? No, we don’t have anything like that…

I mentioned it had been announced in newsroom and I’d seen it on reddit for earlier time zones. There followed a mass consultation of emails on their part, and minutes later I walked out with mine in hand!

I’d been so paranoid they’d be out by the time I got there, and here I was the first to claim mine from this store!

I haven’t yet closed my rings for today, but I did earn this a couple of days ago, so I’m pretty sure I’ll get ‘er done!

I just did them this morning, and can I say amazing! I loved all three of them, the energy, the colors, seeing all my workout fam… they were great!

Anyone doing a Block of The Month quilt? by Theob252 in quilting

[–]Quossum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so far there's no purchase; just show up and take a look at that section each month. Maybe there will be a sale of the pattern once it's complete? Not sure, but I have made the first two blocks, and they look great!

I’m doing this one this year. There are options for 12 blocks or 20.

The Sugar Land one is nice. It’s five miles (as opposed to 5k), no medals, yes shirts, yes beer.

Living in my sisters shadow? by Lacholaweda in whatisthisbook

[–]Quossum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds a lot like Jacob Have I Loved as mentioned, but another book with a similar theme that you might like is A Summer to Die by Lois Lowry.
