#Lighthouse Beacon

Star and Sea

To you whose throne sits in the halls of fire and light; To you who hang onto the mantel of the midnight sky; lower your gaze down below and see the gap between me and your empyrean heights. The seconds pale as they trickle down my wrist, the hands of the hours already mangled and still I twist, to you I beckon, a lighthouse aflicker with feverish longing, and this time, perhaps more than…

National Lighthouse Day: Celebrating the Beacons of Light and Hope

National Lighthouse Day on August 7th honors the iconic beacons that have guided sailors for centuries. Celebrate these symbols of hope and resilience by exploring their history and significance.

Every year on August 7th, we celebrate National Lighthouse Day, a day dedicated to honoring the iconic structures that have guided sailors safely to shore for centuries. Lighthouses are more than just navigational aids; they are symbols of hope, resilience, and the enduring human spirit. On this day, we take a moment to reflect on the history and significance of lighthouses, the stories they…

Thinking about Ed and Stede building a new home on the shore that their crew can always come back to. How the community they’ve built is now strong enough to stand on its own without their captains, but they’ll always be there to guide them, and now they’ll always have a safe harbor to return to.

Thinking about Stede finally finding comfort in something like a married state, and maybe finally finding a way to be that lighthouse on the shore for his family.

okay i just finished sleep tight by jh markert and christ alive what the fuck was that. i gave it 1.75/5 on storygraph and 2 stars on goodreads bc like. girl.

so the first thing is like. the most minor thing i'm going to complain about but it definitely needed one last line by line edit. how did they fuck up the daughter's name at the end and call her julie instead of julia when julie hadn't been an established nickname for her. there were a bunch of other lines that just felt like they were repeating what we already knew or didn't need to be there like we didnt need a line saying "that tess already knew because noah had told them in the car" <- not exact idc enough to go back and look but we know. we were THERE you do not have to remind us that they know this information okay.

now onto the rest of the book. so the concept is that after serial killer posing as a priest to lure victims in is executed by the state, a cult that formed around him decides they're going to get revenge on the people who locked him up and ultimately revealed that they're going to revive him with the help of the real mastermind. which i thought the serial killer priest would have been cooler than it was but whatevs thats on me. howeverrrrrrrr one of the early chapters was from the pov of a gravedigger/grave security guy and he talks about the group he just joined but explicitly called it a cult which was so. the word cult is very loaded and high control groups do not like to use it for themselves because of that and they'll use something else like group or religion for their cult even if people on the outside are calling it a cult. have you ever met an mlm girly like come on.

the mystery itself was laid out decently enough with the eyes and not so subtle hints that were dropped but the worst part of this was the fucking weird ass attempt at portraying DID. I am going to give markert the benefit of the doubt that he was trying his best and anyone reading this review who has DID is free to comment on this but i am not under the impression that most people know when a new alter fronts and that voices don't really change especially around strangers. also other than oskar and ruth, all of noah's alters were real people and 5 of them were people who he watched die and he just took on their personalities in his head and they don't age because the people they were based on stopped aging (ie died). they talked about it like he just absorbed their souls into his headspace??? and yes they could tell when someone switched to front because of his voice and like. the fact that two of them wear glasses and will put them on to front. i might be wrong and again correct me if i am but this does not seem like how it works when systems meet strangers for the first time especially ones that get violent and upset when they cant get the alter they want to front to front.

sticking with the theme of weird insensitivities about trauma, why was fuckhead justin so insistent that tess needed to forceably relive her trauma (which was revealed at the end of the book and ngl kinda anticlimactic) to try and fill in gaps in her memory from when she was 13 because it made him upset? like dude she probably shouldn't be doing that if she doesn't want to its buried for a reason leave her alone!! and the fact that their relationship went back to business as usual after everything was so!!!!! i think they should have gotten divorced anyway there is no way this is going to work out long term sorry.

and finally i get that american police just shoot indiscriminately but killing benjamin in front of 11 young children seemed kinda unnecessary. especially when they were crowded around him and could easily have been caught in the crossfire but magically weren't and the bullets only hit ben. sorry but at least one of those kids should have had some sort of gun related injury from that if not more if you were going to kill ben.
