Impossible to sum up my feelings in a Bluesky post. As good as everyone said. The stream of consciousness chapters near the end are some of the most devastating prose I've ever read. I may post fuller thoughts when I've collected them. ๐๐

I'm a little too sick to start a new novel tonight but I still wanted to read something with a little meat on the bone. ๐๐
Cover of Breasts anddEggs by Mieko Kawakami
Finished last night. Conversational and multipolar novel which explores the struggles of working class womanhood in Japan. Equal parts heartbreaking and hilarious. Comes with my highest recommendation. ๐๐
"I mean, the pregnancy was pretty smooth. She was an easy birth. After that, though, I just fell apart. Looking back, it was definitely postpartum. I should have seen someone about it, but I didn't. My husband didn't do anything about it. Not anything to help. He was like, What's wrong with you? Having a child is a totally natural part of being a woman. How could it possibly take that much out of you? My mum did it. Every woman does it. Get over it. He just laughed." "Unbelievable." I drank the last of my beer. "That was when I made up my mind. If this guy gets sick at some point, if he gets cancer, and he's in real pain, I'll be there when he's dying, standing over him, looking down, and I'm gonna say the same things he said to me. Dying is totally natural. Get over it."
Breasts and Eggs (Mieko Kawakami) is brutal lol

Design for Stephanie, the Tennis Queen. Majoland's undefeated champion of Witch Tennis. In an interview barely anyone remembered, Stephanie said she would only be interested in dating anyone who can beat her in Tennis. Layla knows this and her motivation is to dethrone her and become her wife.
The cover of "My Love Is Water: A Verse Drama" by Rob Macaisa Colgate
"Tubig" is the Tagalog word for water. "My Love Is Too Big."
Fragmentary verse expressing disordered thoughts in disordered ways. Broken language, broken mind, broken heart, drowning in a too big love. Culture, psychosis, and sexuality united in splinters, overwhelmed by the wrong kind of care. ๐๐
I've never particularly needed to like the same things as someone to get along with them, but I wish I shared more of my interests with more of the people in my life.
Things only seem worse now because we've actually begun to acknowledge that it's unacceptable.
Thinking back to the dev room in Final Fantasy IV making multiple jokes about literally living at the office and not being given any vacation time. The Stamper brothers saying "a 9-5 day gets you a 9-5 game". Old documentaries consistently framing crunch as "passion". It's always been terrible.
Portal (1986). A digital novel with a Compuserve-like interface in which a psychic love story plays out against the background of a crumbling utopia. Themes of Jungian psychology, collectivism vs individualism, gender, and the nature of art are common for the genre but executed excellently here.
The party calls on Odin to avenge Barret's death in Final Fantasy VII (PS1, 1997)
Jack the tuxedo cat relaxing inside the pages of Le Morte D'Arthur
As I was finishing up The Fates of the Princes of Dyfed the other night, my cat Jack climbed inside it and started making biscuits. That thing's 112 years old, I nearly had a heart attack!
Here he is enjoying a much cheaper book much more responsibly, though. :)
the mark of great art tbh. I'll pick it up when I'm next out book shopping, thanks!
Actually what is it? Seems really interesting/potentially devastating
Cover of The Fates of the Princes of Dyfed by Cenydd Morus. The title is written in fancy gold lettering on the top left, while a Welsh dragon sits upon a circle on the bottom left.
A celebration of life buoyed by a beautiful style where every song is the most melodious, every hall the most grand, and every hero the most heroic. A retelling of one of Wales' greatest works which, like its inspiration, sets out to "paint in great pictures [the] soul itself." Essential fantasy. ๐๐
I had a dream last night that I released my new video, but it was just 30 minutes of the Artdink logo spinning on screen while drum and bass played and all the comments LOVED it yelling "I LOVE ARTDINK YEAH!!!"
well i actually made that video now lol
