added a couple poems (substantial planes & dreamwalking ballad) & a game rec: pentiment!!!!!! i fucking loved that game
Ooohhh, I'm soooo excited to read your thoughts on the King of Elfland's Daughter when you get to it! It's so fascinating to read pre-Tolkien fantasy, honestly * __ *
new journal entry, postcards, & buttons
Thank you for posting your small joys! This is a great idea <3 Frozen thin mints are such god tier cookies.... also pls get into perfumes!! Would love to know what kind of scents you like! It's a very fun rabbithole to go down!
I love your idea of focusing on small joys! I have surprise daffodils in my yard & just finished/sent out my backlog of film, too. Waiting for & finally receiving my scans/negatives is one of my fav joys. Also, perfumes! I love choosing an indie maker & getting a bunch of samples. Like cloudcover said, it’s a really fun rabbit hole to go down (I have lots of recs if you, very specifically, wanna smell like a bakery)
Nice journal entry. I'm also awaiting the arrival of spring. My area has a bit more of winter yet, but there have been glimpses lately. It's really been keeping me going. Also, love your collections. I also collect old postcards, though my collection is not nearly as cool as yours!
Couldn't agree with you more- it is small joys and radical optimism that will help us make it through. I hope that you get into perfumes! I did sometime back in 2023 and it's been so much fun. My one major advice for you would be to buy samples before buying full sized bottles.
thank you everyone! <3
