"Gluesticks are my Xanax." CNN covers "junk journaling." Love to see it.

In an effort to get out of the Amazon universe, I switched over to The Storygraph to track my reading. It easily imported my many many years of GoodReads data. It's a lovely interface (with no ads!) and I really like using it. You can find me here.

Another new fibre arts podcast to check out, from Fibre Artists Take Two, Friday Feature Artist. They also have these and more interviews on their YouTube channel.

Do you have an account on the Internet Archive? I don't know why, but I've never really utilized this amazing resource, but they have everything on there, for free. Like this beautiful book on drawing from 1916. Just in case either your public or private library doesn't have such a thing to use...

Here's another interesting "color of the year" predictor over on Pinterest. I like this color palette A Lot.

I'm liking the new photo sharing app, Flashes For Bluesky, introduced recently that looks and functions like Instagram without the algorithm, and it links up to cross post with your BlueSky account if you want it to. If you've used Instagram, you'll know how to use it.

I've also been using PixelFed, another photo sharing app which is non-Meta or X/twitter affiliated. I've been posting out and about nature or built environment pictures. It reminds me of a cross between Instagram and Flickr.

KaleidaCam is one of my favorite photo apps, I play with it all the time, and I just bought a 99¢ add-on pack for a couple more options and I'm re-intrigued all over again. A cheap date I am, yes indeed.

Books I've listened to or read on Libby this month, I'd recommend them all:
- Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel - the voice acting by Simon Slater on this one was very well done
- Foxglove Summer by Ben Aaronovitch - another great Rivers of London story
- Fourteen Days - Margaret Atwood and 35 other authors weave a beautiful tale set in an apartment building in NYC during Covid lockdown.
- The Nickel Boys - Colson Whitehead - devastating and beautifully told
- The Siren's Call: How Attention Became the World's Most Endangered Resource - Chris Hayes
- What Abigail Did That Summer - Ben Aaronovitch - a different main character in a Rivers of London story
- The Furthest Station - Ben Aaronovitch - a short one for this series but I'm a completionist
- The Man Who Died Twice - Richard Osman - I think I liked this one even more than the first in the Thursday Murder Club series
- System Collapse - Martha Wells - and now I'm sad that I've read all of the MurderBot Diaries so far

StoryGraph is really working out well for me as an alternative (ie non-Amazon related) to GoodReads.

I love anything Wizard of Oz related, so this was super interesting, The Feminist Who Inspired the Witches of Oz.

We are admitted Costco-Maniacs around here, so I enjoyed this podcast episode of Acquired about The Complete History and Strategy of Costco.
