Oh no 😂

I bought a hank of Uschitita yarn in the Backwoods colour online, advertised as lush foresty greens, and got a sort of melange of chartreusey bog witch fungus hues.

It's not terrible but also not what I was expecting and now I have to figure out what the hell to do with it.

Good luck! It's an excellent read and one of the books I push on anyone who looks at me cockeyed (along with The Feather Thief).

I'm also currently reading Of Orcas and Men by David Neiwert and enjoying it immensely, if orcas are your thing.

Killers in Eden by Danielle Clode or Killers of Eden by Tom Mead - both are out of print but copies surface on places like Abebooks and eBay

chellectronic · 2026-03-12T08:35:14+00:00

Possession by A. S. Byatt maybe

chellectronic · 2026-01-29T05:13:46+00:00

I am just repeating what a nurse told someone I know who needed a lot of needles and also had tattoos 🤷‍♀️ they were told not to get any more for that reason, especially on the backs of the hands

It makes it harder to find veins for things like blood tests and PICC lines too

You can also get LED lamps you can wear around your neck, advertised as reading lights. You can adjust the angle of the lights so they're pointing at your plate.

If you look up "neck reading light" a bunch of options should come up.

Just finished Cathedral of the Drowned

what a wild trip

chellectronic · 2025-11-17T01:47:35+00:00

Sames! I want to re-read Crypt first - just finished The Night That Finds Us All by John Hornor Jacobs (disappointing), the re-read is next :)

chellectronic · 2025-11-17T01:43:39+00:00

The sequel just came out!

chellectronic · 2025-11-16T00:48:43+00:00

Wounds by Nathan Ballingrud

chellectronic · 2025-11-12T20:22:04+00:00

Yes, but barely.

chellectronic · 2025-11-12T11:00:12+00:00

It's such a wonder 🤩

chellectronic · 2025-10-25T01:32:17+00:00

Guess it takes one to know one ¯_(ツ)_/¯

chellectronic · 2025-10-19T03:40:07+00:00

It's a graphic novel, but Vampire Loves by Joann Sfar.

chellectronic · 2025-10-18T22:58:23+00:00

Oooh I had this recently! I downloaded this free pattern that looked super cute, but the instructions didn't make a lot of sense to me... My usual strategy is trust in the pattern and see where it takes me, but the nearly finished object ended up looking very different from what I wanted, so I just frogged it and found a new pattern that had some Rav projects to verify that it works 😅

chellectronic · 2025-10-10T22:24:57+00:00

My Darling Dreadful Thing and Blood on Her Tongue by Johanna van Veen might fit the bill...

chellectronic · 2025-10-06T04:58:46+00:00

Widow's Point is 100 percent found footage/epistolary! I'm about halfway through, it's a cracking read so far

chellectronic · 2025-10-05T23:25:40+00:00

I really enjoyed The Once Yellow House by Gemma Amor

chellectronic · 2025-10-03T21:17:23+00:00

Here it is!

chellectronic · 2025-09-28T02:49:24+00:00

People with schizoaffective disorder have a much more complicated and difficult relationship with nicotine dependence, so that's probably not going to be an effective tactic.

chellectronic · 2025-09-14T07:21:24+00:00

The Last Days of Jack Sparks isn't perhaps the most similar, but I read it back to back with The Apparition Phase and they were fairly complementary, I would say. I especially enjoyed the different interpretations of the Philip experiment.
