Books!! Thanks to @officialmood for the tag :)

An estimate of how many physical books I own: Me, staring at my bookcases and doing an estimate per shelf x number of shelves... maybe 500? (and if you include ebooks, then there are 304 books in my to read folder and 339 in my read and keep folder). AND I did a big clear out before I moved last year. And took four bags to the charity book shop earlier this year. I cycle a lot of second hand books in and out tbh.

Favorite author: There are loads of favourite books and I could pretty much go on about most of the books on my shelves, but I think I could continue to lose myself in Lois McMaster Bujold's books over and over and over again. I know that Georgette Heyer books are very much Of Their Time but it is also true that if I ever need a comfort read then I know what to reach for.

A popular book I've never read and never intend to read: Godddddddddd. Liza said Infinite Jest and I also have zero intention of ever reading this. But SO MANY.

A popular book I thought was just meh: Red, White, and Royal Blue. I did not get along with Wolf Hall, but I also didn't get that far into it before giving in.

Longest book I own: Toss up between the Neal Stephenson Baroque Cycle volumes, War and Peace, Samantha Shannon's The Priory of the Orange Tree (although I've lent this out and probably won't get it back), and Victoria Goddard's Hands of the Emperor / At The Feet of the Sun. They're all pretty chunky, without doing any specific investigation.

Longest series I own all the books to: Elinor M. Brent-Dyer's Chalet School series (approx 62 books, depending on which editions you own). After that, Lois McMaster Bujold's Vorkosigan series.

Prettiest book I own: I don't own any where the cover is the prettiest thing I've ever seen, but I do own a queer historical photography book where together the inside and out is the prettiest visual history. Some of my books are v pretty because of the way they make me feel, but that's a different question.

A book or series I wish more people knew about: Maybe Hands of the Emperor by Victoria Goddard? There's a core few of us that feel a lot about it. One of my very oldest internet friends that I haven't seen in years sent me a package earlier in the year that was just a notebook that had reminded her of this book and therefore it was a necessity to share it with me (she was right to do this). I also kind of want more people to talk to about Joan Aiken's Black Hearts in Battersea series.

Book I’m reading now: I'm listening to Jingo by Terry Pratchett, have just picked up the second Sandman volume, and I'm partway through Our Wives Under The Sea by Julia Armfield (although I realised last night that it was too creepy for me to read in bed, lollllllll)

Book that’s been on my TBR list for a while but I still haven’t gotten around to it: BRB just going to stare into an invisible camera, my goodreads to read pile is 462 books long and is only made up of stuff that I own / once owned and is probably not up to date with paperbacks. Let's say The Simarillion, because I've probably intended to read that since I was a kid (and have not yet managed it). I've read 133 books so far this year and yet my to read pile never gets any fucking smaller.

Do you have any books in a language other than English: Nope. I used to own some HP books in German and Latin but I did not keep them. I am not very good at languages, although me and the Duolingo owl are trapped in a daily standoff.

Paperback, hardcover or ebook?: Mixture of all three. Love a good paperback but I am... gently allergic to paper, so sometimes if I've read too many paper books my hands pay the price, and on the whole I do believe that skin should stay on my body, where I've put it, rather than peel off and bleed. A healthy mix of ebook and paperbook in general, with the odd hardback.

People have probably already done this, but tagging @junkshop-disco, @magog83, @dearmrsawyer, and @pennyplainknits.

The Arctic is Getting Rainier

The Arctic is known for its cold temperatures, which allow precipitation to fall as snow. But as temperatures warm, that snow is being replaced by rain. These changes can affect sea ice in the Arctic and weather patterns throughout the Northern Hemisphere.

NASA scientists examined rainfall trends over the Arctic and North Atlantic oceans from 1980 to 2016 and found an increase in the frequency of rainy days. They also found that the length of the annual rainy season grew longer. The results were published in the Journal of Climate.

The most dramatic changes took place in the North Atlantic, where it rained on average five more days per decade at the end of the 36-year study period than at the beginning. The rest of the study region—the central Arctic Ocean and its peripheral seas—saw an average of two additional rainy days per decade. This comes as temperatures in the Arctic are warming four times faster than the rest of the planet.

The map above shows the change in number of rainy days per year, which has contributed to this decadal trend toward a rainier Arctic. It is based on the Modern-Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Applications, Version 2 (MERRA-2), a global reanalysis product developed by NASA’s Global Modeling and Assimilation Office. The product takes in-situ and satellite observations, including from NASA’s Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) on the Aqua satellite, and uses them to reproduce conditions that have occurred across the globe.

Here, much of the North Atlantic is shown in deep blue, which indicates a larger increase in the number of rainy days per year (between 1980 and 2016) compared with light blue areas. The Barents Sea north of Norway and the Kara Sea north of Siberia are also shown in deep blue.

“One thing to note is that there really is no dark brown anywhere, so in no way are we seeing any significant decreases in the number of rainfall days,” said Chelsea Parker, a weather and climate scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and co-author of the study.

When temperatures are above freezing, clouds are more likely to contain liquid that drops as rain than ice that falls as snow, said Linette Boisvert, a cryospheric scientist at NASA Goddard and lead author of the study.

When rainfall hits the snow-covered sea ice, it darkens the surface and can amplify melting that in turn leads to more warming—a process known as the ice-albedo feedback loop. Snow on top of sea ice acts as insulation, reflecting solar radiation back to space and keeping the surface cool. Rain eats away at this snowy buffer.

“If it rains during the sunlit months, the surface is going to be a lot darker because the snow is wet compared to a fresh, dry and thick snowpack. This wet snow surface is going to start absorbing more of that incoming solar radiation,” Boisvert said. When the snow melts, it forms ponds on the ice, creating a darker surface and absorbing more solar radiation. This sets off a loop of continued warming and melting.

Meanwhile, water vapor drives its own feedback loop. The atmosphere can hold more water vapor as temperatures rise. As a heat-trapping greenhouse gas, this water vapor warms the Earth’s surface and contributes to melting the snow and ice. This melting exposes open ocean, allowing evaporation to take place, which releases more water vapor into the atmosphere.

Feedback loops in the Arctic impact other parts of the world, too. Changes to the amount of heat in the Arctic can influence weather patterns farther south. For example, Parker pointed to extreme temperature swings in the U.S. and polar air masses that form over the North Pole and move south over North America.

“All of that,” Parker said, “is dependent on the extent to which the Arctic is experiencing climate change.”

From the search for habitable worlds beyond our solar system to Earth science missions closer to home, NASA shared its goals for the next decades of exploration at this year’s Goddard Space Science Symposium, held March 20-22, 2024, at the University of Maryland in College Park. “We wanted to help bring focus to this long-term vision by gathering people from all areas of the industry to discuss the plan, the associated opportunities and challenges, and how we will all work together to succeed,” said Jim Way, executive director at the American Astronautical Society (AAS), which co-hosted the symposium with NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. NASA Goddard and AAS collaborated to develop this year’s theme, “Space 2040: Pathways to the Future.” About 340 in-person attendees participated in panels featuring NASA scientists, researchers, and experts, as well as government and industry partners. Goddard Center Director Makenzie Lystrup kicked off the symposium by emphasizing the role partnerships have to play in science and space exploration. “The world is changing, and the space industry in particular; we’ve got to adapt to that,” Lystrup said. “Goddard needs to adapt to that, NASA needs to adapt, and I think that that can be scary. But also, this is the time when innovation can really come out. And so, I think that the sharing of ideas, and the willingness to try new things, is more important now than it ever has been.” Makenzie Lystrup, center director at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., gives opening remarks at the 61st Goddard Space Science Symposium sponsored by the American Astronautical Society on March 20, 2024, at the University of Maryland in College Park.NASA/Tabatha Luskey During the symposium, Goddard employees, students, and members of the industry and government workforce listened to discussions on space weather, climate science, interplanetary missions, and more. Nicola Fox, associate administrator of NASA’s Science Mission Directorate at the agency’s headquarters in Washington, gave the opening keynote address on March 20. Fox spoke about NASA’s current and future missions, highlighting the intersections between NASA sciences. “I love to think about the interconnections in the science that we do,” Fox said. “Everybody knows that all the really interesting stuff – it’s not even just science – interesting stuff happens on the boundaries.” NASA Associate Administrator for the Science Mission Directorate Nicola Fox speaks about NASA’s operating and future science fleet during her keynote address at the symposium on March 20.NASA/Tabatha Luskey The symposium concluded with early science results from NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission, which returned a sample from the asteroid Bennu in September 2023. Mission scientists brought a small piece of the sample for attendees to view. “That smudge you see is a pristine sample of the early solar system that we took 200 million miles away, and they’re finding some little preliminary results already,” said Michelle Thaller, co-chair of the 2024 planning committee and assistant director for science communication at Goddard. This year marked the 61st symposium, making it the longest running event hosted by AAS. Formerly known as the Robert H. Goddard Memorial Symposium, the event demonstrates the longstanding relationship between Goddard and AAS. By Julia TiltonNASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md.

The Spring/Summer 2023 Denim Trends:

There's no denying it: fashion's fascination with denim is persistent, no matter the season. It's never a matter of "if" one should swaddle themselves in denim, but rather "how" one should wear it, and for spring/summer 2023, denim fashions cover the range, satisfying all sartorial desires. To summarise, Kate Moss led the charge in a pair of Bottega Veneta denim illusion, printed leather pants, signifying the return of casual comfort. Wide, loose jeans were also seen on the runways of Chloé, where they were paired with tie detailing, Jacquemus, and Givenchy, where design director Matthew Williams gave them a real Y2K sandblast wash. Denim cargo variants were also shown by the latter, while designers at Burberry, MM6, Masha Popova, and Alaa gave the denim maxi skirt concept legs. The desire for everything denim is at an all-time high. According to Libby Page, market director at Net-A-Porter.com, "denim has truly cemented itself as a luxury wardrobe staple in recent seasons." Denim has been a cornerstone of the retailer's online business, and buyers are already coveting this season's maxi skirt trend. "We have invested in nine styles from both the runway and true denim brands, working hard to scout out the perfect fit, length, and wash for quality over quantity."

The customer's attention at Browns Fashion is firmly centred on the wardrobe classic. "The fashion consumer is looking for something easy and casual to help them transition back into everyday life, and our denim sales over the last few seasons reflect that," says Holly Tenser, the department store's womenswear buying manager. "Margiela's cut-out wide leg denim has continuously sold out for the last few years, and more designers are expanding their denim offering as it's a great way to buy into luxury brands at a more accessible price-point for aspirational customers." Jeannie Lee, Selfridges' head of womenswear buying, agrees, noting a 37% year-on-year growth in denim sales, owing in part to premium companies investing in the blue industry. What is the takeaway? If you only buy one thing for spring, make it denim. Here are the denim styles for spring/summer 2023 that are sure to get you compliments.

The denim maxi skirt:

You might blame the dramatic drop in hemline lengths on the falling stock market, but let's simply accept it for what it is: a trend. The 2023 re-invention of the denim maxi by Stefan Cook, Alaa, and Burberry, last seen during the height of Sienna Miller's bohemian phase, adds glossy sheen.

"Throughout the shows, we saw a variety of denim wardrobing styled in an elevated way, from Altuzarra's maxi denim skirts paired with cropped knits," Julia Ferrar, buyer at Matchesfashion.com, says.

Extra legroom:

This news has even reached the Love Island villa: thin jeans are out, at least for the time being. Instead, the current design cycle is filled with extra baggy - and extra comfy - styles that are nearly de rigeur among the fashion set. Have you explored the world of slouchy denim yet? Look to Khaite, Jacquemus, and Cecilie Bahnsen, who unveiled her first denim collection on the runway this season in Paris with hand-appliqued embellishments on enhanced tonal double denim sets. "This was such an exciting development to witness," Ferrar adds. "Each season she goes from strength to strength and continues to show us her breadth as a designer."

In the mood for blue… but make it Y2k.

Denim has been distressed, low-slung, sandwashed, patterned, and studded for the new millennium. While this may make some people cringe, designers have refined this retro to make it more palatable. Printed pants peeked out from beneath Molly Goddard's iconic cream-puff skirts, while Nensi Dojaka offered two-tone trousers paired with a bra and jacket. We also saw a modified version of Lee McQueen's notorious bumster jeans from 1993 at Alexander McQueen.

The denim dress:

The London design duo behind KNWLS sent nu-supermodel Alva Claire down the runway in a washed-out maxi, leaving us yearning for denim dresses. Thankfully, several designers followed suit: Monot showed a strapless, complete denim gown (take notice, Britney Spears), while Alaa's off-the-shoulder garment made a solid argument for red carpet denim. And there was a do-it-all minidress from Caroline Herrera that soared to the top of the fashion editor's summer vacation wishlist.

The Great Dictator or The Greatest Anti-Nazi Film Made

Julia Merolle

After watching The Great Dictator (1940) directed by Charlie Chaplin this week, it has strong anti-Nazi themes in it. It also connects to reading, The Hollywood War Film: 1942-1944 by Dorothy B. Jones. This reading discusses films that came out during World War II how they represented the war and what themes they were showing. The reading also discusses inaccurate depictions of the war through film, as not every country was involved in it.

In the film, The Great Dictator (1940) directed by Charlie Chaplin, there are many instances of anti-Nazi themes. Charlie Chaplin plays two characters, a Jewish barber and Adenoid Hynkel, a parody of Adolf Hitler. The plot has an A plot and B plot type of story where it switches between the Barber’s life and Hynkel’s life. In a quote by Jones, she states, “During 1942 and 1943 the quality of home-front stories was consistently low. In most films, such activities were given a comedy treatment.” This connects to The Great Dictator, even though it came out two years prior to the years Jones listed. Chaplin uses comedy in the film, between the traditional “tramp” chase scenes between Chaplin and the parody Nazi soldiers and the comedic banging of the pan on the soldiers' heads from Paulette Goddard’s Hannah. Chaplin took a terrifying situation that victims of the Holocaust had to endure and decided to turn it into a comedy as a way to cope with it. Instead of the terrible outcome that happened in history, Chaplin makes the soldiers lost in the scene and the Barber the winner, as seen below.

Another scene that stood out to me when watching The Great Dictator was the scene where the Barber switches places with Adenoid Hynkel. This was probably the most important scene of the film because it determined the outcome, which was peace. The Barber pretends to be Adenoid Hynkel and makes a very serious speech about war and all of Hitler’s ideologies. This is important because Chaplin is known for comedies and at this moment, his most famous film, is one of the most serious parts of cinema ever, which is shown above. This scene in addition to the scene with Hannah hitting the soldiers with the pans shaped the wartime messages in this film because it shows how stupid the soldiers and leaders of the war are in the eyes of Chaplin and that peace, laughter, and comedy are the answer.

Certainly, let's add more depth and emotional resonance to the conflict resolution in the story:

When Ovid Peets was in second grade, he received his first pencil - a gleaming, freshly sharpened instrument of creativity. It was Ovid's responsibility to safeguard it, perched proudly on his wooden desk, always ready for the task at hand. The teacher, the stern yet caring Miss Goddard, had painstakingly sharpened each pencil to perfection. Her warm but firm admonition lingered in the air, a gentle reminder to be cautious with these pointed tools of learning. Ovid cherished his pencil, a symbol of newfound responsibility and creativity.

Little did Ovid know that this seemingly ordinary pencil would become a harbinger of events that would shape his life.

Miss Goddard had emphasized the potential danger of using pencils as swords, the dire consequences of an innocent duel. Her stern warning echoed in the room: these seemingly harmless objects could deliver lead poisoning through a puncture wound. She vowed to confiscate any pencil wielded recklessly.

Yet, curiosity got the better of Ovid. He couldn't resist showing off his prized possession to his desk mate, Neil Bogg A playful skirmish ensued, and in a flash, David thrust his pencil into Ovid's palm. Pain shot through Ovid's hand as the pencil's lead tip snapped off, embedding itself directly into the lifeline etched into his palm.

Ovid stifled a cry, unwilling to draw attention to the classroom misadventure. He was bleeding, and he furtively wiped the crimson stain away with his handkerchief, all the while trying to extract the stubborn shard of lead. A substantial fragment remained embedded within, unbeknownst to him, precisely at the center of his lifeline.

The classroom's vibrant atmosphere had given way to a hushed tension. Ovid's young heart raced, not only from the sharp pain but also from the fear of consequences. His silence was a mixture of pain, embarrassment, and a desire to protect both himself and David.

The incident with the pencil marked the beginning of a hidden journey, one that would follow Ovid throughout his life. Though he couldn't comprehend it at that moment, this small lead fragment would leave an indelible mark on his fate.

The lifeline, one of the five prominent lines explored in palmistry, curved gracefully around the base of his thumb. Starting between the index finger and the thumb, it meandered its way toward his wrist.

In the world of palm reading, the length of the lifeline bore no connection to one's lifespan; instead, it whispered secrets of health and vitality.

Ovid's lifeline was a masterpiece of nature, long and clear, with a pronounced upward fork, a sign of a life filled with vitality and fortune.

As Ovid grew older, he couldn't help but wonder if the incident in Miss Goddard's classroom had set a course for his life, a course that was yet to reveal its twists and turns.

Years passed, and Ovid's palm, though bearing a faint shadow, served as a constant reminder of that day. It was a reminder of innocence lost and a silent promise to keep secrets buried deep within.

It wasn't until he met Julia and fell deeply in love that he mustered the courage to reveal his hidden scar. Shortly after proposing to her, during their time together in Junior College and Thornton Krell's metaphysics class, Ovid shared his anxieties about the length of his life and the fear of a premature end. Julia offered solace and understanding, her own secrets bubbling to the surface. She understood the weight of scars and didn't mock his vulnerability.

Julia gently traced her fingers over the shadow on Ovid's palm, her touch a soothing balm for his hidden wounds. She whispered words of comfort, reminding him that scars were a testament to strength and resilience. They symbolized the battles one had fought and survived, not just the wounds endured.

Their shared vulnerability forged a bond between them, deepening their love. Julia's embrace that evening was not just a promise of a future together but a celebration of the healing power of love.

Four decades later, Ovid continued his journey, having surely crossed the halfway point of his life. The lead had vanished from plain sight, an enduring testament to healing and understanding.

As for Neil Bogg, the world remained oblivious to his fate. He had been drafted into the Vietnam War and never returned, a poignant reminder of the unpredictability of life and its many mysteries. Ovid often thought of the childhood friend who had unknowingly left a mark on his life, forever etched into his heart as a symbol of the complexities and uncertainties of existence.

As the years passed, Ovid couldn't help but reflect on the irony of Neil Bogg's fate. It was a twist of destiny that seemed almost too fitting given their childhood skirmish. Neil, who had unwittingly caused Ovid's hidden scar with that pencil, had been drafted into the Vietnam War and never returned.

In their younger days, the duel with the pencil had been a momentary lapse in judgment, a playful act that resulted in Ovid's hidden pain. Ovid had chosen not to draw attention to it, protecting both himself and Neil. Little did he know that Neil, who had caused the injury, would face a fate far more dire.

The tragic irony lay in the fact that while Ovid had moved on, bearing the hidden scar as a testament to healing and love, Neil's life had been cut short in a foreign land, a poignant reminder of the harsh realities of war and the unpredictable twists of fate.

Ovid often thought of his childhood friend, who had left a mark on his life, forever etched into his heart as a symbol of the complexities and uncertainties of existence. The irony of it all served as a sobering reminder that life's twists and turns could be both unexpected and profound, leaving one to ponder the intricate tapestry of fate that we all navigate.

User name the principal and why she was stern ChatGPT The stern principal of Ovid's school was Mrs. Hawthorne. She had earned her reputation for sternness over the years due to her unwavering commitment to maintaining discipline and order within the school. Mrs. Hawthorne believed that a structured and rule-bound environment was essential for fostering a proper educational atmosphere. Her stern demeanor was shaped by her deeply-held belief in the importance of upholding school rules and ensuring that students adhered to them.

Mrs. Hawthorne was known for her high expectations of both students and teachers. She believed that a strict approach to education was necessary to prepare students for success in the real world. While some may have seen her as unyielding, others recognized her dedication to the school's mission of providing a strong and disciplined education.

Despite her stern exterior, Mrs. Hawthorne also had a caring side and was genuinely concerned about the well-being and academic growth of her students. Her strictness was rooted in a belief that discipline and structure were crucial for helping students achieve their full potential.

Overall, Mrs. Hawthorne's sternness stemmed from her commitment to maintaining order and discipline in the school environment, and she believed that it was her responsibility to uphold these standards to ensure the students' success.
