Things I Read This Week… and Last Week

Happy Endings Jane Kerkovich-Williams GIF

So last week was the longest week ever, but it still didn’t allow me enough time to finish my post, so I’m combining two weeks in one. Except here I am at the end of the second longest week ever, again, and Daylight Savings Time has zapped any energy I had, Starbucks’ stock has probably risen because I’m basically mainlining espresso at this point, and even though I’m not particularly busy at work at the moment I still can’t seem to find enough time to read everything. I guess this is what happens when Daylight Savings Time lands in the middle of Mercury Retrograde.

On The Web

My mom also just bought me a tin of Milo. I’m not exactly sure why since I didn’t ask for it, but she did.

I just have no words, except maybe that Claire’s fucking sucks

Strange Planet is great (like, so great) and I love webcomics, they remind me of when I was obsessed with reading the Garfield dailies as a kid. (I was generally obsessed with Garfield as a kid.)

I haven’t watched Leaving Neverland yet. I have it recorded, but I’m not really ready to watch it. I’ve been reading a lot of pieces on it, however, and I don’t really know what more to say about this whole MJ thing. I’m very sad. This kind of sums it up, sort of. I guess?

It’s so weird when your childhood crushes die

Long Live Carrie Fisher

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again Pop Goes My Heart is the best fake song for a movie ever. It used to be my ringtone at one point.

I miss Prince.

Brie Larson is great. The men who hate her for being great make me laugh, and laugh, and laugh…

Better late than never: The Hater’s Guide to the William Sonoma Catalogue 2018!

I liked seeing the stylists juxtaposed with the celebs they style, but I’d *really* like to see more POC stylists

I am so here for this Spider-Woman casting possibility

And speaking of Schitt’s Creek, shoutout to them for being the best

A queer, Indo-Canadian woman is going to replace that dude Tara Reid dated.

The Atlantic wrote about some people I know

I LOVE Drag Race and drag shows are one of my favourite things to go to (and I am seeing Bianca Mother Fucking Del RIO this summer, bitches) but I am so here for the era of Drag Kings.

Dr. Gu is uh… not a good dude.

Haha, this dumb fucker. Sucks to suck.

The Mary Sue did a really great compilation of 5 messy mythical romances, which made me miss reading the classics, so maybe my next book will be something old.

I don’t really follow Ripper lore closely, but I do love the idea that Jack was actually Jill

Another installment of The Ugly History of Beautiful Things, and this one is about pearls. I still reference the perfume one all the time, especially when I talk about the book Perfume: The Story of a Murderer.

On the Shelf

I have about a third of The Witch Elm left and I am DYING to get through it.

I have so many things saved to read but haven’t had much of a chance to look at them after I save them, so hopefully this project I was just assigned doesn’t take up too much time.

Till next week:
