Have you ever heard of a podcast called Monstrous Agonies? It's an advice segment for creatures of the night, and I think it's really good. (They're also here on tumblr @monstrousagonies.) Asking because I realized you've reblogged the same types of posts as they have, which tells me you have similar tastes in at least some things, and also because I always want to share things I think are awesome. (All their episodes have transcripts, so one can read the stuff if listening to it might be a problem; great for ADHD, also great for when there was noisy construction going on outside.)

I listen to non-fiction podcasts (and videos) a lot! Especially when drawing. I will give a try to this podcast series, even though it's fictional.

I typically listen to peoples' experiences, like near-death experiences, cryptid encounters, paranormal encounters etc. My newest favorite is The Why Files, which is an investigating journalism channel or various topics as different paranormal encounters, CIA, UFOs, conspiracy theories like is the Moon a man-made object, secret USA military projects, time traveling etc. Always with the question "Is this REALLY true and if not, here are the facts supporting it and if yes, here are the facts supporting that". Highly fascinating and well composed, unbiased series!

Other channels I listen to are

Mom on the spectrum Taylor, a mom of 2, tells about her journey to autism diagnosis at the age of 32, and about life as an autistic, adult woman. Very informative, not a v-blog.

Weird World Stories of peoples' paranormal encounters, glitches in the matrix, past lives etc. unexplainable.

Darkness Prevails The best channel for all kinds of paranormal encounters! Contains tons of cryptid encounters, too.

Dogman Encounters An online "radio" program which interviews face-to-face people who have encounteres dogmen cryptids.

Raven Reads Tons of paranormal encounters of myriad of kinds! Typically sent to Raven directly. Raven also makes 5-10h long video compilations.

Absolute History Super amazing British history channel with short episodes of varied historical topics! These are made to be watched but you can follow them by listening, too.

What Lurks Beneath I haven't been listening to this channel much after it changed its format but the older episodes, which are just read compilations of peoples' paranormal experiences are amazing, especially the military encounters. These helped me to stay sane when I was recovering from a surgery and was in agony.

Paranormal Rising Another excellent channel for all kinds of paranormal experiences people have reported to have!

Anita Moorjani Official I love Anita and listen to her videos whenever I can. Anita is a spiritual speaker and a teacher, helping people to discover their own joyous lives.

Irish in Finland As it says, an Irish man lives in Finland with his Finnish wife. He makes lots of videos about Finnish mythology, history and ancient culture. Probably the best source for Finnish folklore history!

NDE Diary People tell about their near-death experiences. This is one of the best NDE channels if you ask me, as some of the American run NDE channels concentrate on NDEs which align only with Christian values. I want to listen to all kinds of experiences, not just something which supports one religion's views.

Thanatos TV EN An English version (dubbed) of a German channel, which interviews face-to-face German people who have had near-death experiences. Updates rarely but the quality is good.

SPECIAL MENTION - TO WATCH うさぎ村Ch - UsagimuraCh Usagimura - literally Rabbit Forest - is a Japanese breeder who breeds small rabbits. She always introduces newborn bunnies and follows their growth for a month. Videos have English subtitles, if you click them open. This is my happy mood channel!

Welcome to The Lily of Ludgate Hill book tour with Berkley Publishing Group. (This blog tour post is also posted on my Wordpress book blog Whimsical Dragonette.)

Synopsis:

Lady Anne Deveril doesn’t spook easily. A woman of lofty social standing known for her glacial beauty and starchy opinions, she’s the unofficial leader of her small group of equestriennes. Since her mother’s devastating plunge into mourning six years ago, Anne voluntarily renounced any fanciful notions of love and marriage. And yet, when fate puts Anne back into the entirely too enticing path of Mr. Felix Hartford, she’s tempted to run…right into his arms. No one understands why Lady Anne withdrew into the shadows of society, Hart least of all. The youthful torch he once held for her has long since cooled. Or so he keeps telling himself. But now Anne needs a favor to help a friend. Hart will play along with her little ruse—on the condition that Anne attend a holiday house party at his grandfather’s country estate. No more mourning clothes. No more barriers. Only the two of them, unrequited feelings at last laid bare. Finally free to gallop out on her own, Anne makes the tantalizing discovery that beneath the roguish exterior of her not-so-white knight is a man with hidden depths, scorching passions—and a tender heart.

*My Review, Favorite Quotes, and Non-Exclusive Extract below the cut.

My Review:

I loved this. It was exactly the sort of banter-filled stubborn hero and heroine who are gone for each other but refuse to admit it story that I love. It's easily the best of the Belles of London series. Anne and Hartford are perfect for each other but it takes them a while to admit it. The only problem I had with it was that it was *extremely* predictable. I knew exactly how it was going to go from the beginning and there was no deviating from that. I actually stopped about 75% of the way through and checked goodreads to make sure I hadn't already read it before. I hadn't. And yet I had predicted every. single. thing that happened. It was like deja vu but more so. The last quarter unfolded exactly as I expected it to. I don't know if the foreshadowing was just really intense or what but that did lessen my enjoyment of the story. Aside from that, however, everything else was exactly as I like in a historical romance. I am curious about the next one, as well, after meeting who will obviously be the new wheelchair-bound, artist hero. I have high hopes because neither of those is something we typically get in a romance hero. *Thanks to NetGalley and Berkley for providing an early copy for review.

Favorite Quotes:

"I wish I were more eccentric," Anne declared, rousing her spirits to the cause. "I might have traveled to Yorkshire weeks ago and saved Julia from her fate."

Non-Exclusive Excerpt:

The twin fragrances of pipe smoke and parchment met her nose. Lemon polish, too, though there was no sign that the maids had done any recent tidying up. The library was a place of spectacular clutter. Bookcases lined three of the walls; leather-bound volumes on botany, agriculture, and natural history were pulled out at all angles as if an absent-minded researcher had wandered from shelf to shelf withdrawing tomes at random only to change his mind midway through extracting them. The fourth wall was entirely covered in framed sketches of flowers and greenery. Some images were produced in pencil and others in delicately rendered watercolor. They were-along with the teetering stacks of botanical journals and drooping maps that spilled over the sides of the earl's carved mahogany desk-evidence of his prevailing passion. Lord March's love of exotic plants was legendary. He'd spent much of his life traveling the globe, from the wilds of America to the highest peaks of the Himalayas, bringing back rare seeds to nurture into bloom. A distracted fellow at the best of times, but a kind one, too, as far as Anne recalled. It had been a long time since she'd darkened his doorstep. A lifetime, it felt like. She tugged restlessly at her black kid-leather gloves as she paced the worn carpet in front of the library's cavernous marble fireplace. She'd never excelled at waiting for unpleasantness to arrive. Fortunately, she didn't have to wait long. "Hello, old thing." A familiar deep voice sounded from the library door. Anne spun around, her traitorous heart giving an involuntary leap in her breast. Mr. Felix Hartford stood in the entryway, one shoulder propped against the doorframe. Lord only knew how long he'd been observing her. She stiffened. After all these years, he still had the power to discompose her. Drat him. But she wouldn't permit her emotions to be thrown into chaos by his attractive face and figure. What cared she for his commanding height? His square-chiseled jaw? For the devilish glint in his sky-blue eyes? And devil he was. The very one she'd come here to see. "Hartford," she said. Her chin ticked up a notch in challenge. It was a reflex. There was no occasion on which they'd met during the course of the past several years that they hadn't engaged in verbal battle. This time, however, he made no attempt to engage her. He was dressed in plaid trousers and a loose-fitting black sack coat worn open to reveal the dark waistcoat beneath. A casual ensemble, made more so by the state of him. His clothes were vaguely rumpled, and so was his seal-brown hair. It fell over his brow, desperately in need of an application of pomade. There was an air of arrested preoccupation about him, as if he'd just returned from somewhere or was on his way to somewhere. As if he hadn't realized she was in the library and had come upon her quite by chance. An unnatural silence stretched between them, void of their typical barb-filled banter. Greetings dispensed with, Anne found herself at an unaccountable loss. More surprising still, so did Hartford. He remained frozen on the threshold, his usually humorous expression turned to stone on his handsome face. At length, he managed a smile. "I knew one day you'd walk through my door again. It only took you"-withdrawing his pocket watch from his waistcoat, he cast it a brief glance, brows lifting as if in astonishment at the time-"seven years to do it." She huffed. "It hasn't been seven years." "Six and half, then." Six years and five months, more like. It had been early December of 1855, during the Earl of March's holiday party. She'd been just shy of seventeen; young and naive and not formally out yet. Hartford had kissed her under a sprig of mistletoe in the gaslit servants' hallway outside the kitchens. And he'd proposed to her.

But Anne refused to think of the past. Never mind that, living in London, reminders of it were daily shoved under her nose. "You're not going to be difficult, are you?" she asked. "That depends." He strolled into the room. "To what do I owe your visit?" "Presumptuous, as always," she said. "For all you know, I'm here to see your grandfather." Hartford was the only child of the Earl of March's second son-the late (and much lamented) moralist Everett Hartford. Anne well remembered the man. He'd been as straitlaced and starchy as a vicar. Rather ironic, really, given his son's reputation for recklessness and irreverence. "My grandfather is in his greenhouse," Hartford said, "elbow deep in chicken manure. If it's him you've come to speak with, you're in for a long wait." She suppressed a grimace. There was no need for him to be crass. "Really, Hartford." "Really, my lady." He advanced into the room slowly, his genial expression doing little to mask the fact that he was a great towering male bearing down on her. "Why have you come?" Anne held her ground. She wasn't afraid of him. "I've come to ask a favor of you." His mouth curled up at one corner. "Better and better." He gestured to a stuffed settee upholstered in Gobelins tapestry. "Pray sit down."

Reflecting on 2023 and looking to 2024

I have been meaning to switch to Tumblr as my main site, simply because it's quieter and I can more easily curate my experience online. In saying that I feel as though this blog is as good as any to use as my personal space, so I apologize if you're here on aesthetics alone. (PS - I have an older blog that I have dragged through the trenches that is early 2010s Tumblr- @makemydaisy

Anyway, so 2023 has been an interesting year, that I feel is mostly a blur. I benchmark my years by the convention I usually go to on new years eve (not sure if I will this year) and it feels honestly like it was just last week. Time seems to be moving faster as things get more monotonous, and that's something I want to change in the upcoming year.

I do think I accomplished a decent bit this year though, which I am pretty proud of. Some of the things I am most proud of are:

🌟 Flew to Southern Florida with my bff and road tripped back to home, finally getting to see Miami and Savannah

🌟 Did a solo trip out of the country, driving across the Canadian border and saw very old and dear internet friends

🌟 Got my Lumbee tribal card

🌟 Finally started to wear Lolita fashion after sitting on the sidelines for eight years, attended my first meetup AND hosted one of my own

🌟 Saw Paramore and Depeche Mode in concert

🌟 Started to gain a better idea of how I want to move forward, despite being stuck in a job I don't like

🌟 Began learning how to crochet and embroider

🌟 Started to get back into reading

There's a lot that held me back this year, still processing grief and trauma. I admit I struggle a lot and have my good and really bad days, but I'm working to get that handled. I think for the next year I need to make a more manageable list of resolutions, instead of sticking things into strict numbers and deadlines. So here's a list of things I generally want to accomplish in the next year:

🌟 Transition away from using Twitter, TikTok and Instagram as much; commit to keeping those apps off my phone unless I need to communicate

🌟 Begin to look into the career choice of my dreams and not be afraid to embrace the risk. I want to be in the wildlife profession, and I need to decide whether or not school or workforce is best for that and I need to actually commit. I need to stop taking jobs to survive, I just want to live.

🌟 Travel. I want to go to Japan, but that might be unrealistic. We'll see. I at least want to leave the country again in the next year at some point.

🌟 Dabble in equestrianism. My inner horse girl is screaming.

🌟 Establish healthier habits, namely- Less screentime, more journaling, eating better, sticking to a sustainable exercise routine I enjoy.

🌟 Read more, especially non-fiction. I want to learn more and develop new skills.

🌟 Plan and stick to a budget. Spend less on little treats and save more. I also want to develop my Lolita style, but also do so more second-hand.

🌟 Spend more time outdoors

I'll be updating this as I think of more things.

How 360-degree Videos for Real Estate can change your property marketing

Success in the quickly changing real estate marketing industry depends on being one step ahead of the competition. 360-degree films have become a potent tool that can revolutionize the way properties are marketed as technology continues to disrupt the real estate market. We'll explore the revolutionary effects of 360-degree videos and how they're altering the real estate landscape in this blog. These innovative solutions are provided by Focal Media, a top agency for design, branding, and digital marketing, to assist real estate professionals succeed online.

360-degree Videos: What Are They?

360-degree movies, sometimes referred to as immersive or spherical videos, are a type of visual media that have become extremely popular recently and have completely changed how we interact and perceive material. 360-degree videos offer a virtual tour that lets viewers explore an entire scene, environment, or space from every angle, in contrast to typical videos that have a fixed frame.

Immersive Panoramic Viewing: 360-degree films include the whole scene, offering a comprehensive and immersive visual experience. You have the impression that you are in the center of the action, with unrestricted visibility up and down.

Interactivity: The ability to engage with 360-degree videos is one of its best qualities. Instead of being merely spectators, viewers take an active role in the event. They have the ability to pick and choose where to focus their attention, browse the content, and delve into the elements that most pique their curiosity. Because of this degree of control, viewers find it to be an engaging medium.

Realism and Presence: 360-degree films give off an air of presence that makes them especially appropriate for a range of uses, such as real estate. Viewers get the impression that they are physically present in the location being filmed when they utilize a virtual reality (VR) headset or just their computer or mobile device. For sectors where presenting the actual world is crucial, this realism has the potential to revolutionize the industry.

Adaptable Uses: 360-degree movies have several uses, even though they are frequently connected to virtual tours and real estate advertising. They are employed to give a more thorough and immersive view of places and events in a variety of areas, including education, travel and tourism, entertainment, and even journalism.

360-degree Real Estate Videos: Revolutionizing Property Exhibition

360-degree footage is revolutionizing the real estate market. They provide a distinctive means of showcasing properties to prospective purchasers, allowing them to inspect every inch of the property as though they were in person. This degree of immersion and detail can have a big influence on buyers' decision-making.

Watchers of these videos can:

Analyze the room sizes, arrangement, and architectural features.

Evaluate the room's flow and envision their utilization of it.

Take in the atmosphere and surrounds, including the window views.

Ascertain the general state of the property and any possible maintenance requirements.

Essentially, 360-degree films offer a thorough and genuine impression of the property, assisting prospective purchasers in making better judgments. Additionally, they greatly shorten the time

360-degree Videos' Advantages for Real Estate

Digital Reality Real Estate: VR Integration Done Right

Virtual reality (VR) technology and 360-degree films combine perfectly to provide prospective buyers the chance to take a virtual tour of a home. This integration is revolutionary, especially for overseas or long-distance buyers who would find it difficult to view a home in person before making a purchase.

Wearing virtual reality headsets enables consumers to practically visit any property, no matter where it is physically located. They provide a level of immersion in real estate marketing that was previously unthinkable, allowing users to explore every square inch of the property as if they were physically present. International purchasers will find this invaluable since it allows them to experience properties in a strikingly genuine way, despite geographical restrictions. It's similar to touring without having to get out of their cozy homes.

Improved Property Showcase: Emphasizing Special Features and Design

In contrast to conventional still photos and flat-screen videos, which frequently leave a lot to the viewer's imagination, 360-degree films offer a thorough and intricate perspective of a property with three-dimensional real estate visualization. Using this medium, real estate agents can highlight the property's distinctive features, layout, and architecture in all of its details.

No other visual medium can equal the richness and detail found in 360-degree videos. The arrangement of the house is open for exploration by guests, who may take in the large living room, the comfortable bedrooms, and even the outside spaces. They are able to examine architectural details, such crown molding, hardwood floors, or contemporary fixtures, and determine how these elements enhance the property's overall appearance. The degree of openness with which a property is presented gives prospective purchasers confidence and enables them to make better selections.

Engagement and Interest in an Immersion Environment

The immersive experience that 360-degree videos offer is one of their main benefits. Viewers actively participate in the process of exploring the property rather than acting as passive observers. Interest and questions are greatly increased by this increased degree of participation.

360-degree videos provide an immersive experience that lets viewers interact with the property directly. They are in charge of their viewpoint, deciding what features of the property to investigate and how long to do so. A strong bond is created between the observer and the property as a result of the autonomy and interaction that make the viewing experience unique and captivating. A more captivating and unforgettable experience increases the likelihood that visitors will contact for more information, book a viewing, or make a purchase.

Efficient Use of Time and Money: Simplifying Property Tours

Traditionally, setting up in-person property visits may be costly and time-consuming. In addition to arranging appointments and leading tours, real estate brokers often have to communicate with sellers. On the other hand, 360-degree films provide a time- and money-efficient solution for both sellers and purchasers.

360-degree films save everyone's time and money by doing away with the necessity for physical tours. Buyers can view properties on their own schedule without having to travel, while sellers can reach a larger audience without having to constantly prepare their property for viewings. The buying and selling procedure is streamlined and made more convenient by this cost- and time-effectiveness.

Increased Audience Reach: Interesting and Distributable Content

360-degree films have a higher viewing angle and are also quite popular on social media. They can reach a wider audience by being readily disseminated via websites, social media platforms, and other online methods.

A key element in the popularity of 360-degree videos is their shareability. They can be disseminated to a worldwide audience via a variety of digital channels. The immersive experiences create excitement and interest in the property when prospective buyers share them with their networks. Because of this, homes that are shown in 360-degree videos frequently get more attention and draw in a wider range of prospective purchasers.

The Potential of 3D Real Estate Visualization

Real estate marketing requires the use of 3D visualization, particularly for properties that are currently being built or constructed. It provides a thorough grasp of the design and flow of a property to prospective purchasers.

Visualizing the Unbuilt: 3D real estate visualization builds a link between the theoretical and the physical for properties that are still in the planning or building phases. A property that doesn't yet exist in real life can be "walked" through by potential purchasers to get a sense of its layout, architectural features, and even possible views from different windows.

Layout Assessment: Using this technology, purchasers can examine a property's flow and layout in three dimensions. They are able to comprehend the general spatial arrangement, window location, and how rooms relate to one another. This clarity is very helpful to consumers in their decision-making, particularly in the case of off-plan purchases.

Design and Customization: Buyers are frequently able to envision possibilities for customization, including altered floor plans, various interior design alternatives, and even landscaping. This gives individuals the ability to customize the property to their tastes, strengthening their sense of connection and ownership.

Dear diary,

There’s so much to talk about here and I have no clue where to start. I’ve never been the best at journaling (only because if there was ever an error on the paper I’d want to rip the page out and start all over) so this seems to be the best option LOL. I think I just want to use this as a place to vent frustrations or keep up with myself, quite literally as a diary. I’m still debating on whether I want to mention this on my main blog only because this is definitely more personal haha. We’ll see.

Anyways, 2023 was such a shit year for me omfg. Let’s see: got into a huge argument with my boyfriend on my graduation day, birthday bonfire was ruined, had to put down my rescue dog due to his aggression :(, boyfriend gave me a relationship ultimatum, spent months wondering why I wasn’t enough, and then ended the 7 year relationship. Sounds like a sob story HAHA, but fuck that year sucked.

My friends have been my biggest support system though. I love them so so much and they are amazing for putting up with me constantly. Also they always agree to go traveling with me <3 I have never traveled as much as I have within the past two months than the past 3 years. I’ve somehow managed to talk my best friends into traveling to New York with me soon so I’m super excited for that. Hopefully I can meet the cute mustache man of my dreams there LOL.

Also, being single is so new to me still!! I was dating my ex since I was 15 so being single at 22 feels so strange! I know for sure I’m not emotionally ready for another relationship at the moment, nor am I looking for one, but I do miss the aspects of a relationship. Like the causal hanging out and kissing LOL. (Maybe I need a friend who I can kiss occasionally) For some reason in January, I ended up downloading bumble (dumbass alert!!) and boy was that shit a doozy. Some are of the guys on there were cute [especially if they had a mustache] but it just was not for me. I also felt like if I did end up meeting anyone in person for a date it be awkward to mention that I wasn’t looking for a boyfriend. My bumble account lasted 1 1/2 weeks.

Moving on, I think I like talking to people online atm just because nothing comes of it. I can be flirty and no harm done, but boy is it hard to find people I’m genuinely interested in talking to. It gives me such an ick if someone is overly sexual all the time. I get it’s fun occasionally but if I can’t have a casual conversation with you then no thank you!!! I was talking to this one guy on here (which was dumb on my part because this is tumblr) and we had good conversations (plus he was hot) but it would turn me off as soon as he’d ask for pics, especially after I’ve said no. Ended up blocking him </3 (rest in peace).

I’m in no shape or form wanting to send pics OF ANY KIND (unless they’re cute lil selfies) at the moment anyways. I do not feel good in my body and I’d rather rip my eyeballs out then let someone see me naked (a little extreme but my point stands).

Speaking about my body though, I’m wanting to focus on bettering myself this year! I think there’s definitely a lot of things I’ve been slacking on this year and am wanting to change. My weight is my biggest obstacle at the moment. All I can do is workout and eat better though to fix that (have I been doing it? kind of). I just need better accountability!!! Also I need to stop eating out so often. I’m on the fence about not watching porn though LOL. I think I’ve watched it like every other day for the past few months. Maybe it’s bad for me but idk I just like to c*m.

I think I’ll be updating this every week or every other week? I’m terrible at keeping a routine so who knows. I’m planning on going to the gym tomorrow so, fingers crossed.

Sincerely,

Bunni
