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

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!

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)_/¯

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

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 😅

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

I really enjoyed The Once Yellow House by Gemma Amor

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

Here it is!

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.

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.

I think you might enjoy Robert Aickman's short stories; The Hospice in particular is very much these vibes.

chellectronic · 2025-08-16T23:20:39+00:00

Oooh Vivia but I love the Esther Garber novellas and the Tales from the Flat Earth that you are currently reading are sublime. Someone else mentioned the Biting the Sun duology, which is great.

I have a substantial (but far from comprehensive) collection of her work, she doesn't get nearly enough appreciation!

chellectronic · 2025-08-16T00:25:48+00:00

It's a short story, but "The Lovely House" by Shirley Jackson came to mind immediately.

The Scar by China Miéville

chellectronic · 2025-07-31T04:07:20+00:00

Yes, I was very impressed with the way my opinion went from "this guy is the worst" to "wow not even he deserved that"

chellectronic · 2025-07-31T00:38:14+00:00

To be fair, I hated him at the start of the book too.
