god I could be so wealthy if I had no ethics. that's so fucking frustrating. I'm living paycheck to paycheck because I'm not grifting vulnerable idiots on TikTok. I feel like I have the ability to very easily scam people. I could make a killing with AI. but god. I have morals and ethics and so I get to be poor as shit. I hate this fucking world
Mine was The Colour of Magic because it was one we had and was the first published, and I thought I should start at the start.
Sometimes I wonder if these books are, as a collective series, some kind of eldritch abomination with a mind of their own.
Silly idea, really, because it's so obviously true. Books are magical, even if they don't look it. You can tell because looking at them makes people do and feel and see all sorts, conjuring mental images through the refractive lens of the mind's eye or giving them the desire to make things or even convince people they can make things they can't yet but given a page or two more and suddenly the whole universe is opened up and, despite having only looked at some arbitrary symbols on a thin wavy tree sliver, suddenly they can.
This is 1:50 in the morning. No idea if I'm lucid or mad. Probably a mix of both and some fatigue for seasoning. Good morrow.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, you do not decide which discworld book you're going to read first, the universe does. It's whichever one accidentally makes its way into your immediate vicinity, whichever one is the only one on the shelf at the library when you were actually looking for something else. It will find you when it's Time, it has something to do with wossname... quantum

Language is supposed to enable communication so introducing a language barrier with friends seems like a way to distance yourself from them.
I can see this easily going wrong, but it could be a great opportunity to share a passion.
she's a hero. she should dump her west brit "friends" and become friends with me instead
They both work Overtime, even if they appear to be lazy.

The TARDIS is sick of the Doctor forming toxic relationships with companions and she is not relinquishing control of the jukebox.
obsessed with the Doctor making a promise he can’t keep, kissing Belinda’s hands, and then Toxic by Britney Spears immediately blasting over the TARDIS radio.
yes TARDIS. you have accurately assessed the dynamic there for sure
Just found out it's International Asexuality day.
I raise a glass to all you people who are confident in the knowledge that you're just not into sex. You rock.
I'd tip my hat, but I'm indoors.
We really need a Moist von Lipwig to revitalize the public services in this city. Please, the public transit is in shambles. Someone get a twunk in a golden suit before we lose another bus route.
Forgot to mention, it was £2 apiece and Return of the King (map and last image showed up a week before. Didn't buy them myself due to lack of storage.
In 2023, I had to price these really cool Lord of the Rings DVD sets (I think it was the extended editions).
I wish we'd get this kind of beautiful art on more packaging, even though I know this to be some kind of premium version.
Amazing Bentley.
Sorry what?????? I’m so happy!
