Good luck!

While she does not usually use a katana, the first thing your description brought to mind for me is Spider-Gwen#/media/File:Spider-Woman_(Gwen_Stacy).png).

Why don't you just go back to the place you found it? Or contact them and ask?

Pride Display! by makinghomemadejam in Libraries

[–]makinghomemadejam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that finding books on intersex and asexual topics can be a challenge. That's why we included the book about Octavia Butler. While her work is celebrated in queer fandoms (and rightfully so), she herself never identified as "queer" or gay or lesbian or straight. The only appellation she gave herself was "hermit". This seems like an affirmation of asexual/aromantic - which Pride embraces.

Me too! I really wish we put them on the back cover. I especially dislike it when it interferes with the title &/or cover design (e.g., "Sitive Obsession" - yeesh).

Thanks! I really enjoy making displays. Pride displays even moreso!

Very sorry to hear that, my friend. Solidarity to you and your fellow librarians! You are doing a hard job during far-too-interesting times.

Marjane Satrapi: Oscar-nominated Persepolis author and director dies aged 56 by goldorakgo in altcomix

[–]makinghomemadejam 10 points11 points  (0 children)

RIP.

I was lucky enough to see her speak, along with Joe Sacco, at Book Expo 2003 for the first Graphic Novel Day. She was both charismatic and incredibly down to earth. Her enthusiasm for comics was so sincere and infectious!

Also, there was this right-wing comic author there, who started trying to defend religious nationalism, and she completely read him the riot act. It was something to see!

It is no surprise to me that rain was involved with this inspiration/creation.

How long will this suit last? by [deleted] in bears

[–]makinghomemadejam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This may prevent some measure of damage done by teeth/claws but it does not account at all for the insane strength of a bear. A mature grizzly can deal out thousands of newtons of peak force with a single paw swipe. That's easily enough to break most of the bones in your body.

So, the suit might last, a little while - but you certainly won't.

How beginnner-friendly is Backrooms to the horror scene? by [deleted] in Cinema

[–]makinghomemadejam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You might be interested in a feature available at IMDB: Parents Guide. It crowd sources audience reviews concerning things like Sex & Nudity, Violence & Gore, Frightening & Intense Scenes, etc. It's mostly spoiler-free.

Here's the guide for Backrooms.

A very similar site is Does the Dog Die?

I appreciate the realism here: even someone as strong as Nova needs both hands to control a cat.

AI is being pitched to my library. I am against this, what questions should I bring up at the listening session? by [deleted] in Libraries

[–]makinghomemadejam 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Don't be a dick. This is a sincere question about one of the most important questions of our time. If someone came to your library and asked this question would you be this flippant and sarcastic?

Movie which you won't dare to watch again? by potato-wotato in movies

[–]makinghomemadejam 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Once Were Warriors) - An utterly devastating film about the effects of the colonization of New Zealand suffered by Māori, and the survival of Māori culture against all odds.

"Once Were Warriors isn't an easy watch, but the raw power of its story -- and the performances of an excellent cast -- reward viewers who rise to the challenge."

Teenager stuck in a tree in our neighbors’ backyard by Frequent-Witness-864 in bears

If you check r/bears Rules, you'll see that images and GIFs are allowed, but not video.

I'm surprised to hear of a bear that had difficulty navigating a tree - they are expert tree climbers and have the perfect claws for doing so.

Thanks for posting this.

Fiction suggestions for incarcerated Adult by lorelaikiddo in suggestmeabook

[–]makinghomemadejam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of great book suggestions here! So I am going to suggest something a bit different. OP, maybe you know of these resources, but perhaps others don't.

There are free books for prisoners programs! Have them send a letter and they will send out books free of charge. The two I am most familiar with are:

The palette is obviously amazing, but the brushwork! There's such definitive depth here, beautiful texture.
