Why to buy children books?
If you buy children's books then it can be a worthwhile investment for several reasons:
Ownership and Accessibility: When you buy children's books, you have the advantage of owning them. This means that your child can have constant access to their favorite books whenever they want to read or revisit them. Having a personal collection of books at home can encourage a love for reading and make it more convenient for children to explore different stories and genres.
Personalization: If you Buy childrens books then it will allow you to choose titles that are specifically tailored to your child's interests, reading level, and developmental stage. You can select books that align with their hobbies, favorite characters, or educational needs. Choosing personalized books for kids can enhance their engagement and enjoyment of the books, making reading a more personalized and meaningful experience.
Building a Home Library: Building a children book library at home for your child can create a nurturing environment for reading. Having a collection of books readily available at home can inspire a love for literature and encourage independent reading habits. It also provides a sense of pride and ownership for children, as they can curate their own collection and have a personal space dedicated to books.
Flexibility and Convenience: Owning children's books gives you the flexibility to read them at any time and in any location. Whether it's at home, during travel, or at a friend's house, having books on hand allows for spontaneous reading opportunities. It also eliminates the need to rely on external sources, such as libraries or book rentals, which may have limited availability or specific borrowing periods.
Emotional Connection: Children often develop emotional connections with their favorite books. Owning these books allows them to develop a sense of attachment and familiarity with the characters, stories, and illustrations. They can revisit their favorite books repeatedly, finding comfort and joy in the familiar narratives. These emotional connections can foster a lifelong love for reading and storytelling.
Collectible and Keepsake Value: Certain children's books hold collectible or sentimental value. Classic books, limited editions, or special editions can become cherished keepsakes that can be passed down through generations. These books can hold sentimental value and become treasured family heirlooms, creating a sense of continuity and tradition.
While renting or borrowing children's books can be a cost-effective option, buying children's books offers the advantages of ownership, personalization, convenience, and the opportunity to build a home library. It allows for a more personalized reading experience and fosters a love for reading that can last a lifetime.

Been thinking about Ford watching the 70s Animated Lord of the Rings Movies... (companion comic to this post!)
#the other two VHS tapes Fidd's is holding are Rankin-Bass' The Hobbit (1977) and Return of the King (1980)! The 70s animated pseudo-trilogy!#A lot of people pointed out on my other lotr 'crossover' post that Ford would have seen the 70s movies!#And i wont lie i entirely forgot they existed. But now i remember i have so many feelings on it okay. Ford my silly LOTR nerd#I dont think he would have seen Bashkis in theaters. far as I can tell it was a VERY limited (likely mostly CA) run in the middle of winter#but Rankin-Bass'? Aired on NBC & ABC. He absolutely woulda watched them or rented a VHS later. Which is why he's most excited by Bashki's#He's just such a nerd. I need him to nerd out. But also lowkey angst on how his single focus on bill/the portal lead#him to neglecting even the small things in life. Like knowing a VHS release of an adaptation of his favourite book series had come out#GF fanart#Gravity Falls#gravity falls comic#Fan art#fanart#fiddleford mcgucket#fiddleford hadron mcgucket#young fiddleford mcgucket#*holds two random VHS tapes in one hand to check Fidd's pose in the 2nd panel makes sense* Well thats mathamatically feasible!#young stanford pines#stanford pines#ford pines#Book of Bill#comic#artists on tumblr#my art#Grunkle ford#fiddauthor#cause Fidds is not talking about the movie there. Well okay he's talking about the portal but He COULD BE TALKING ABOUT- *I am dragged off*

Since I’ve been making posts about American/ British entitlement towards Ireland, I thought I’d talk about this video here.
I am a student at this college. It’s a big tourist attraction for many reasons, but the main one being that the book of Kells is kept here. I am also from Kells itself, but Dublin having the book and not Kells is a whole other issue.
So this protest that’s been happening over the the past few weeks is in response to the college once again raising rents for student accommodation to astronomical rates. That being when rent in Dublin (and Ireland as a whole) is already unliveable. You’d find cheaper rent off student accommodation, but it’s hardly easy to find places like this. As well as this, the majority of the student accommodation isn’t even on campus to begin with. Most are about a 45 minute luas journey away. So what the fuck are you paying for?
This protest is necessary. It’s been a long time coming. Time and time again they prioritise tourists over us. Buildings are old and falling apart, equipment isn’t functional, accessibility is god awful. I know this because I am disabled and use a rollator, but I can’t even use it on campus most days because there’s simply no ramps/ elevators in some buildings.
In one of my lectures last week we were in one of the old buildings. We had a lot of content to cover, but of course the projector wasn’t working. The professor spent fourty minutes trying to get the computer/ projector to work, but to no avail. So we have a whole lecture to catch up on! All of this while I was looking out the window at this atrocity:
A new building for tourists! Yay!
They’ve been building new school buildings for years, but of course instead of finishing them, they’ll spend their time and money on the tourists. I’m not even having an exam in one of my modules because they told the professor that there simply isn’t enough room to host our class for the exam. And it would be “too expensive” to book a venue… it’s only a class of about thirty. He had written a whole exam and we were under the impression we’d have one, but now it’s just continuous assessment I guess!
So you have to understand why we’re not exactly jumping for joy for the tourists. There are hundreds on campus everyday, just generally being annoying and entitled. And yes DISCLAIMER; not all tourists, not all Americans/ British people, blah, blah. But from my experience, you do encounter some obnoxious people everyday.
So that’s why they blocked entrance to the book of Kells. That’s why it’s disgusting for the tourists to be arguing with them and demanding entrance. For once we just want our college to prioritise us! So yeah we will revoke your entitlement, because we are the ones who study here, we are the ones who have to LIVE here.

I've seen posts doing this before, but I wanted to make my own. Shout out to everyone in theatre who will never get the roles they want. To the trans women whose roles written for them are always given to cis people. To the trans men who will never get cast as the leading man because their voices are too high. To the white girls born for The Book of Mormon. To the Black girls born to play Elle Woods. Altos and non-belters born to play Lydia Deetz. Adults who never got their chance in Annie or Oliver! Women who want to play Hades. Men who want to play Persephone. Actually disabled actors who likely won't even be Crutchie or Ricky Potts, let alone anyone else. The Leading Player who doesn't have the range in either direction. Jane Doe who isn't a soprano. Adolfo Pirelli who can't do accents. Anyone whose dream roles are from shows where the rights aren't released. I love all of you. Don't let the directors tell you no. You got this <3

Supernatural Cops
The fandom has come to the conclusion that all kinds of supernatural or unusual things happen in Amity Park and people take it like any other Tuesday.
Still, I wouldn't be surprised if this place is the only place in the country (not to say the world) that has a police division in charge of handling Cults…
Yes, in Amity Park there is a group of police (not to say half of all the police in the city) that are dedicated to controlling cults and their peculiarities, because we must remember that, despite the reputation of being a tourist trap, this town in the middle of nowhere has the reputation of being the most haunted place in the country (or the world), so it wouldn't be crazy to say that on certain dates of the year many "tourists" (cough cultists cough) arrive who come in order to do "events" (cough rites cough), so whether they want it or not, someone has to control that the limits on how they are "celebrating" are not broken… and to top it off, the limits of what the city considers acceptable is a greater margin than other places, so it has become common for some groups to come back later.
So yes, Amity Park has one of the most effective police departments in dealing with cults and supernatural beliefs, not only are they effective in identifying participants, most of the time they know what kind of cultist they are dealing with, whether they are just playing a game or are the real magic business and how dangerous/troublesome they will be in the end.
What's more, this group is so good at what they do, that many times the inhabitants of Amity Park prefer to call them instead of the GIW (they are too destructive and there is still no 100% reliable insurance that will pay for the damages they cause), when it comes to a problem with a ghost and the ghost child is not around.
and that competition is more noticeable when other cities in the country begin to ask for help with some unknown cults that are appearing rap
#danny phantom#dp x batman#dp x dc#batman#amity park#cryptid amity park#everybody from amity park is overly conpetent#Amity Park police have a secret relationship with Phantom#The Mayor would not approve of the police supporting a ghost#Many of the investigative books that the police use come from Phantom#They are the only group of adults that many teenagers in the city trust#They are the ones who clean up after the ghost fights#They also prevent the destruction of the city#Cultists often visit Amity Park#There are specialized stores to sell ritual ingredients in Amity Park#Someone adapted and rented some unused land in the cemetery for rituals#The waiting list can take months for some places#There are auctions for renting the place on dates like Halloween or the solstice#The police have thermos that are given and collected by the Fenton boy or his friends#The entire cult department of the police is hidden from the mayor#Most of the police do not trust him Mayor#Amiry Park was used to get rid of some overzealous or troublesome cops from other cities#At first those cops wanted to come back#now they don't want to leave#Silent war between Amity Park police and the GIW

Why to rent children's books?
Renting children's books is a great way to provide your child with a variety of reading materials without the need to purchase and store them permanently. There are several options available for renting children's books, both online and offline. Here are a few ways you can rent children's books:
Local Libraries: Public libraries are an excellent resource for renting children's books. Most libraries have a dedicated children's section with a wide range of books suitable for different age groups. You can visit your local library, sign up for a library card, and borrow books for a specific period of time. Libraries often have a vast collection of children's books, including picture books, chapter books, and educational materials.
Online Book Rental Services: There are several online platforms that specialize in book rentals, including children's books. These services operate similarly to a library, but with the convenience of online browsing and delivery. You can browse their catalog, select the books you want, and have them delivered to your doorstep. Some popular online book rental services include BookRoo, Reading Bug Box, and BookLender.
Book Subscription Boxes: Book subscription boxes are a popular trend that offers a curated selection of children's books delivered to your home on a regular basis. These subscription services often include a mix of new releases, classics, and age-appropriate books tailored to your child's interests and reading level. Examples of book subscription boxes for children include OwlCrate Jr., Little Fun Club, and Lillypost.
Book Swaps or Exchanges: Consider organizing a book swap or exchange with other parents or within your community. This can be a fun and cost-effective way to access a variety of children's books. Each participant can bring books they no longer need or want and exchange them for books that are new to their child. This way, you can introduce your child to different books without spending money.
Online E-Book Rentals: If your child enjoys reading e-books, you can explore online platforms that offer e-book rentals. Services like Amazon Kindle Unlimited and Scribd provide access to a vast library of e-books, including children's books. You can pay a monthly subscription fee and have unlimited access to a wide range of titles that can be read on e-readers, tablets, or smartphones.
Renting children's books allows you to provide your child with a variety of reading materials without the need to purchase and store them permanently. It's a cost-effective and convenient way to encourage reading and explore different genres and authors. Whether you choose to visit your local library, use online book rental services, or participate in book swaps, renting children's books can be a valuable resource for fostering a love of reading in your child.

She wanted him to be proud of her. She wanted it more than anything in the world, more even than she’d wanted him when she’d watched him from afar.

putting my prediction on record now that the coming decade is going to see the rise of viral-marketed fancy at-home water filtration systems, driving and driven by a drastic reduction in the quality of U.S. tap water (given that we are in a 'replacement era' where our current infrastructure is reaching the end of its lifespan--but isn't being replaced). also guessing that by the 2030s access to drinkable tap water will be a mainstream class issue, with low-income & unstably housed people increasingly forced to rely on expensive bottled water when they can't afford the up-front cost of at-home filtration--and with this being portrayed in media as a "moral failing" and short-sighted "choice," rather than a basic failure of our political & economic systems. really hope i'm just being alarmist, but plenty of this already happens in other countries, and the U.S. is in a state of decline, so. here's praying this post ages into irrelevance. timestamped April 2023
#apollo don't fucking touch this one#serious post#not a shitpost#hope i forget about this post and have no reason to ever look back on it one day#fyi i'm aware that access to potable water is already a major issue in parts of the U.S. yes i know flint michigan exists#i'm saying that this issue is going to GROW unless local & federal governments work together to fix it.#so it's a matter of if we trust them to fix it. And well--do you?#what are the chances the government just denies there's a problem until the water actually turns brown#at which point it's already been common knowledge for years and people have just become resigned and that's our new normal#i'm mean come on. how many of us already believe that we're being exposed to dangerous pollutants we don't know about and can't avoid#like that's pretty much just part of being a modern consumer. accepting that companies will happily endanger your life for a few pennies#and the most you'll get is like a $50 gift card as part of a class action rebate 20 years down the line#probably the history books will look back on Flint as a warning and a harbinger that went ignored#luxury condos will advertise their built-in top-of-the-line filtration systems--live here and you can drink water straight from your tap!#watch the elite professional class putting $700 dyson water filtration systems on their wedding registry#while the rest of us figure out how to fit water delivery into our grocery budget while putting 90% of our paycheck towards rent#also eggs are $15
