Damn, I really met my gf through RS book club lmfao. The best RS sub truly

“Et qui sait si les fleurs nouvelles que je reve,
Trouveront dans ce sol lavé comme une grève
Le mystique aliment qui ferait leur vigueur? »

Like this if Arielle should hurry up and finish Middlemarch

God he is such a chache but he really is the GOAT

The Amish Romance novels will be flying off the shelves today at the Friends of the Library Spring Book Sale

Finding out that the cover is a self-portrait that Vicente Zambada painted while he was in prison in the US hit me like a truck

“Now I am twenty-eight, and am in reality more illiterate than many school-boys of fifteen. It is true that I have thought more, and that my day dreams are more extended and magnificent; but they want (as the painters call it) keeping; and I greatly need a friend who would have sense enough to not despise me as a romantic, and affection enough for me to endeavor to regulate my mind.”

Los mitotes no se acaban como dijo Panter Belico

Just got sent the Oxford translation in the mail by someone really cool today us a good day

Michael!!

The polyphonic dialogue style is anxiety-inducing, but I’m committed

“The physiognomic procedure sustained his undiminished skill. The charmingly intimate landscapes of San Luis provided ideal subjects for his convalescent exercises. Nature, in its nineteen vegetal phases, adapted itself to his perception, enveloped with Edenic light: a morphine landscape.”

I am once again asking y’all to add me on lit.salon if you have it. The rsbookclub sub is nice for discussions but I like interacting with you all more tbh. Rsx is okay sometimes but it’s the same 5 posts every week. The main sub is a cesspool, I have it muted lol.

My lit.salon is brutalistfm. The UI is pretty cool. It feels like MySpace but for books

I wore my hair down for a photo once and now I get told I have "Justin Bieber from middle school-era" hair. I was going more for like mod-rocker but that's cool too, hey man, I'm just happy to have an intact hairline at age 29. It's rough out here for guys my age lmao

How am I just finding out that El Mencho got whacked? Man, I really have been living under a rock. Nemesio Oseguera aka "El Mencho" was a remorseless psychopath who ordered entire families tortured and killed without any more compunction than you would have ordering coffee. He belonged in a cage for the rest of his natural life. The only downside to him being gone is that he won't now. Praying for Mexico

Dude, I hate gambling and will never go to a casino as long as I live, but last night I bought a lottery ticket (maybe the second one I've ever purchased in my life) and won $50

Also, even more unrelated to books - wtf happened to Koo Koo Roo, are those still a thing anywhere?

Add your boy on lit.salon, I'd like more friends on there. username: brutalistfm

A year-in-review stat from my local public library system - the Hillsborough County, FL Pubic Library Cooperative:

In 2025, 45,092 new patrons signed up for library cards, bringing the county's library card rate to 66%. Nice!

Please consider donating time and resources to your local public library! I would strongly recommend volunteering to anyone who wants to help out!
