Golda Slept Here by Suad Amiry

The Trial of Henry Kissinger by Christopher Hitchens

A Power Unbound by Freya Marske

below the cut, some writeups for my faves:

Wolf Hall - it's not news but Hilary Mantel is among the best to ever do characterization in just a few sentences

The Future Is Disabled - emerging from the rage & fear of being disabled during COVID lakshmi piepzna-samarasinha never lets us forget the joys of disabled community

Libraries and Homelessness - this is partly a spite pick bc i HATED ryan dowd’s book so much. this is an empathetic and practical guide to providing services to unhoused patrons that encourages community partnership, is full of examples, and isn’t miserably condescending!

Underland - i liked this so much i wrote a cave scene in timkon road trip fic. The texture of the prose is delicious!

The Stars Undying - i don’t actually know the story of antony and cleopatra very well but this was a very tasty space opera with messy messy characters

The Lathe of Heaven - still thinking about this 7 months later! Every year I read a LeGuin and it knocks me on my ass for the rest of the year. The opening scene is one of the best things I’ve ever read. (I liked The Dispossessed very very much but I loved Lathe.)

Mimicking of Known Successes - delightful noir-flavored scifi, great worldbuilding and equally great exes.

Some Desperate Glory - do you ever leave a cult against your will, and also you’re the worst girl in the world! This one is for all the clementine kesh fans. Breakneck.

The Haunting of Hill House - this was a great year for me to read books written 50+ years ago. I tweeted about it when i read it but ooghhghhgh this book is devastating. What if you got everything you ever wanted and finally felt at home and everyone called it evil.

Where the Line is Drawn - this was my second book by Shehadeh and it never shies away from the thorniness and hurt inherent in human relationships formed amidst occupation. Really, really excellent.

Kissinger’s Shadow - concisely unravels the ways Kissinger’s legacy shapes every part of US foreign policy you’ve ever heard of. Also really gets at the paranoid ouroboros of Kissinger’s personal philosophy.

Golda Slept Here - the legacy of several Palestinian houses, told through an eclectic mix of personal narratives, photographs, and occasional poetry. Funny and angry and heartbreaking.

#i didn't include the books i dnfed on here but there were a few #library haint #book roundup #personal

send a fandom and i’ll tell you... || [ open ]

@orderbourne and @psychcdelica sent: Rune Factory

The first character I first fell in love with: That would probably be Rosetta back when I first dipped my toes playing the first RF back in high school. Cute tsundere. Nice portraits. And then quickly Felicity as well. I still hold the same affection for both characters. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Raguna. Clearly. Look at this blog and his last one lmfao. But aside from him I did NOT expect to love Karina as much as I did. My eyes had been on Daria when I started RF3 but shortly into her character quest it was like BOOM. Dokis. The character everyone else loves that I don’t: Raven from RF3. Like she’s fine. But people go nuts over the kuudere. She is undoubtedly one of the most popular bachelorettes in the whole series. And I’m just like okay. The character I love that everyone else hates: Bianca from RF1/F. Not very popular but I think she’s cute and the times she does warm up to you feel all the better. I’m also weak to ojous so that has something to do with it. The character I used to love but don’t any longer: Hm. Violet from Tides. I got smitten with her in college because of the shy uwu thing but going back I’d probably pair up with Electra or Odette. The character I would totally smooch: You know Rosetta would have the best reaction. Shame RF1/F didn’t have special scenes with the girls romantically like later games. >:( The character I’d want to be like: ANYONE but Aden from Tides. FUCK that guy. Most unlikeable protag in the series by far. The character I’d slap: ADEN. WITH MY FOOT. A pairing that I love: You can tell me that Raguna is canon with any of the girls from his games and I’d be like “aight” but the best will always be Raguna and Felicity. A pairing that I despise: Aden stays forever alone. Outside of that I don’t think there’s any bachelor/ettes I disagree with? I even like Lest with Amber. So.

Activity Check

Two weeks have gone by, and the current activity period has ended! This post will be listing all of the characters who have and haven’t met their post requirements, as well as provide them with their pay and expenses for the last two weeks, so be sure to read this to collect/pay your bank, and to make sure whether or not your character is in danger of being dropped!

To pass, your character must have at least FIVE RP POSTS. Music, Money Posts, and Artwork don’t count for activity unless they have an RP component to them. If your character hasn’t met the post requirement, then they will fail. If they fail the subsequent check, then that character will be dropped from the Masterlist. Failed characters do not get the money bonuses from the Activity Check. Instead, they will only be awarded 500G and whatever expenses that applies to them (rent, commuter’s pass). Hopefully you’ll be able to keep up with your activity next go-round!

If you are a new arrival to the group (as in, you’ve joined during this activity period), then you will automatically pass. Additionally, if you are a new arrival and have made FIVE RP POSTS, then you will get full benefits of the check. If not, your character’s name will have a star next to it, and they will only get 1,000G for passing. This only applies to new arrivals that have been here for a majority of the activity period. If your character has joined in the week of the activity check, they will also be allowed full benefits. This is also applicable for people with hiatuses-- if you get off of hiatus and/or report back in within the week of the activity check, you will also be allowed a pass.

Here are the most recent community updates and announcements!

Please be sure to read the results below, and, if you’ve passed, apply these money changes to your bank account (via an activity marker post tagged as #pi:money and #pi:activity) according to which ones apply to your specific character.

The next Activity Check will be on Saturday, September 29th!
