i just think “transformative” fiction can go too far sometimes. it’s how we ended up with works of fanfiction being turned into the shittiest novels in the english language (both sides now by peyton thomas, fifty shades series by e.l. james).

and yeah, maybe these are extreme exceptions. but fandoms at large do still have a problem with the transformative fiction mentality; there are an alarming number of fans who impose their interpretation on the source material and it's starting to feel like people only want to interpret works through their own skewed, insular perspectives and they don't want to do any of the work required to effectively interact with a text or a piece of media. this isn't a "we can all have our headcanons" post, this is a heavy "please remember than an author actually wrote this and had their own intentions and you have to at least fucking try understanding those intentions first" suggestion.

and obviously my point is not that there is 'only 1 true interpretation' at all. but it would be worth your time as a critical thinker to recognize if/when your interpretations have become too far removed from the source work and that distorted interpretation is impacting your ability to engage with texts/media in a meaningful way.

There are 132 days and 21 hours left in this year. ⏳Lately, I’ve been in the mood to read again, and I missed it so much, so I’ve made myself a little challenge. 📚 I’m going to read all 15 (technically 19) of these books, all 7,273 pages 📖, by the end of the year🗓, and to do so, I need to read roughly 55 pages a day. I used to read whole books in a day, so 55 pages a day should be manageable. 😂 Anyways, I was kind of excited about getting back into reading, so I wanted to share. 💜 Some of these are re-reads, some are books that I never got around to. 😅 Unfortunately, most of my books are in storage at my best friend’s house out in Vegas🌵, since my move back to Michigan wasn’t planned (and shipping books can get expensive 🥴)

I’m going in this order (and please, don’t judge 😂 some of these are just good memories)

1)”Grey” by E.L. James

2)”Midnight Sun” by Stephenie Meyer

3)”The Rest of the Story” by Sarah Dessen

4)”A Game of Thrones” by George R.R. Martin

5)”Slaughterhouse Five” by Kurt Vonnegut

6)”Every Day” by David Levithan

7)”Suicide Notes” by Michael Thomas Ford

8)”Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe” by Benjamin Alire Sáenz

9)”Shiver” by Maggie Stiefvater

10)”Crank” by Ellen Hopkins

11)”Vampire Kisses: The Beginning” by Ellen Schreiber

12)”Someone Like You” by Sarah Dessen

13)”TH1RTEEN R3ASONS WHY” by Jay Asher

[the-dust-jacket]

This year, readers, libraries, and even the Metropolitan Museum of Art itself are celebrating the 50th anniversary of E.L. Konigsburg’s Newbery-winning classic From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. 

The book combined fantasy-fulfillment with down-to-earth details, a mystery, an engrossingly atmospheric portrait of the Met, and an unforgettable cast of characters. It inspired generations of determined kids to run away in comfort, perhaps to a museum. 

In honor of the anniversary: books for Claudia Kincaid and all her fans, five or ten or fifty years later. 

Previously in this series: Megan Whalen Turner’s Queen’s Thief series 

The Art Forger, by B.A. Shapiro

An ambitious young artist agrees to forge a lost masterpiece, but in the world of art and crime, nothing is as it seems. 

The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie, by Alan Bradley 

When a murderer strikes at the quiet world of a no-longer-glorious country estate, 11-year-old Flavia is nothing short of thrilled. 

The History of Love, by Nicole Krauss 

Unsentimental yet heart-achingly poignant, this slim little novel tells the stories of an old man, a young girl, and the mysterious book that connects them. 

Pure Juliet, by Stella Gibbons 

Prickly, odd, and possibly genius, Juliet is a math prodigy who runs away from her solidly conventional family in Stella Gibbons’ posthumously published novel. 

Possession, by A.S. Byatt 

A pair of ambitious young scholars try to unravel a century old mystery around two Victorian poets. Both intimate and expansive, witty and sincere, and gorgeously written. 

The Curious Incident of the Dog In the Night-Time, by Mark Haddon 

Christopher John Francis Boone is not an ordinary boy. But then, this isn’t an ordinary mystery. 

The Goldfinch, by Donna Tartt 

A tragedy and a theft launch Theo into a life of deception, high society and low connections, and art. 

I Capture the Castle, by Dodie Smith 

For those who fantasized about running away to a museum and might want to live in a rundown castle: a witty and whimsical coming-of-age story with a unforgettable narrator. 

The Children’s Book, by A.S. Byatt 

Childhood whimsey and adult secrets collide in a beautifully detailed world of country estates, museums, war, politics, and art in the early twentieth century. 

York, by Laura Ruby 

A dangerous scavenger hunt through an alternate New York City as three teens try to solve a generation-old mystery and save their home.  

Cold Comfort Farm, by Stella Gibbons

Flora Poste, freshly orphaned and possessed of a passion for tidiness and sense, goes to live with her eccentric country relations, and determines that Something Must Be Done. 

The Elegance of the Hedgehog, by Muriel Barbery

The upscale Parisian hotel is a world of its own, and concierge Renee and twelve-year-old resident Paloma scrutinize its citizens while keeping their own secrets close. But a new arrival launches a series of events that will challenge all those years of isolation  

Making the Mummies Dance: Inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art, by Thomas Hoving 

A lively, scandalous, highly opinionated inside peak at the Met, from its former director. 

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, by Jonathan Safron Foer

After his father’s death in the World Trade Center, a young boy goes on a quest across New York City. 

[boilyerheid]

31. “Behave.”, joplittle, walk the plank :))))

"Someone'll catch us up here."

"I'm trying to find an inch of me that cares."

"I can feel far too many inches of you that don't." Thomas raises his eyebrows pointedly and steps away from Edward's embrace, leaving his beloved practically pouting where he leans against the ship's railing. It's such a sweet look in contrast to the roughness of him - his untidy whiskers, the scars and ink littered about his skin, the pistol at his hip - that it nearly erases Tom's resolve on the spot.

"Tommy..." Edward whines and drags him back in again by his wrist, thumb pressing carelessly over the sore patch where resident artist Irving recently immortalised their relationship on Thomas's skin. Tom's mark is small - a scrolling E.L. over his pulse point - while the answering blue heart poked into the back of Edward's thumb is fresher still. "I'm ravenous, darling, I can't think about anything but having you."

"Having me this morning didn't slake your thirst?" Thomas should pull away again, they're trying to be nominally discreet about things so it doesn't seem that the First Mate is distracted while Crozier is on Erebus, but he finds himself tapping Edward's furry cheek playfully instead.

"I suspect it'll still be in want of quenching after I have you tonight, too," Edward drops his head and nuzzles past Thomas's collar to kiss his neck, delighting in the scratch of stubble he finds there. Tom may not understand his love's ardour for him at the end of the day, when he's long sweated up a storm in the Caribbean heat, but it's endearing nonetheless.

"And what if I'm too sore for you to have me tonight?" It's more than an idle question - their dalliance was rushed this morning, way eased by spit rather than grease for a lack of supplies to hand. Foolish maybe, but fun at the time.

"Then you can have me, Tom, Christ Almighty." The idea seems to only increase Edward's passion once it occurs to him, pressing even closer to his beloved and letting Thomas feel the desperate hardness of his length in his trousers. Thomas sometimes suspects that Edward prefers things that way around, seems to lose all the tension in his body and give himself fully over to Thomas when he pushes inside him, although he understands the reluctance to admit it even living as they do out here. "Oh, yes, that. Please, Tommy. Fuck me."

"Mr Little," it's fun to play like this sometimes, like Thomas still has his stewardly manners and Edward is but a desperate bit of rough bothering him for a buggering because he simply can't help himself. "Behave."

"I'm afraid you render me utterly incapable of behaving, Mr Jopson," he raises his head and nuzzles Thomas's nose like a puppy before kissing him, and Tom can't help but giggle into it. They really should have their minds on other things but... it's hard to think of anything but Edward's sweet mouth against his.

End of Year Reading Tag, which I am doing because I feel like it. You know how people will say "consider yourself tagged if you see this?" @why-the-heck-not I am taking you up on your offer.

did you reach your reading goal for the year (if you had one)?

I did! Actually I met my goal multiple times. I started with a goal of 50, hit it well before 2021 was over, and raised it a couple more times. My final goal was 85, and I ended up reading 88 books!

what are your top 3 books you read this year?

Oof, that is a hard question, because I already put out my top ten list this year and even with counting series I read as one book, I struggled hard to cut it down to ten. I'll give it a shot...

Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri When the Tiger Came Down the Mountain by Nghi Vo

what’s a book that you didn’t expect to enjoy quite so much going in?

Hmm. Mexican Gothic, by Silvia Moreno-Garcia, for the simple reason that I don't usually read horror. I picked this up on a whim and enjoyed it a lot, to the point where I'm going to try to be more open-minded about horror as a genre in the future.

were there any books that didn’t live up to your expectations?

My biggest disappointments this year were Jade Fire Gold by June CL Tan and Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas. These were both YA novels--actually, a lot of books I didn't like this year were YA, which makes me think I need to read fewer YA novels--that didn't work for me and overall didn't live up to the massive hype surrounding them.

did you reread any old faves? If so, which one was your favourite?

I reread shockingly few books this year! But I would have to go with Hogfather by Terry Pratchett, which I reread every December, and which is one of my favorite books ever. It is full of moments that have lingered in my brain since I read them, like smoke in a candle if you smother it by putting on a lid.

did you dnf any books?

Three! The Duke's Wager by Edith Layton, because both the love interests were loathsome and I did not like either of them enough to continue; Daring and the Duke, because I didn't like the first couple chapters; and Freed by E.L. James, because after reading the first five 50sog books, my friends finally convinced me to love myself and stop.

did you read any books outside your usual preferred genre(s)?

This year actually marked my return to my preferred genres, fantasy and science fiction. Though I did read a lot more adult SF/F compared to YA. I did read more contemporary romances, which was a change--I usually only read historical romances and usually only ones set in regency England.

what was your predominant format this year?

43/88 books I read were e-books, the remaining 45 were physical. I read a lot of library books in the first half of the year and then switched to e-books once I was traveling.

what’s the longest book you read this year?

Probably the fan translation of Heaven Official's Blessing, which is fiendishly long.

what are your top 3 anticipated 2022 releases?

Okay, I'm going to cheat and do three new releases and three sequels to books I've already read.

New releases: Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sue Lynn Tan A Taste of Gold and Iron by Alexandra Rowland The Way Spring Arrives and Other Stories edited by Yu Chen and Regina Kanyu Wang

Sequels: Nona the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir Into the Riverlands by Nghi Vo The Oleander Sword by Tasha Suri

what books from your tbr did you not get to this year, but are excited to read in 2022?

Well, I'd like to finish the two series I started in 2022 that I didn't finish. So Act Your Age, Eve Brown by Talia Hibbert and The Hellion's Waltz by Olivia Waite.

In addition: The Lady or the Lion by Aamna Qureshi (Pakistani-inspired fantasy!!!) The Councillor by E.J. Beaton (I bought two copies of this one and didn't get around to it!!!) The Charm Offensive by Alison Cochrun (I wanted to read it but couldn't bring myself to buy it, but then it went on sale recently so now I have it!)

Thalattosaurus

By @stolpergeist​

Etymology: Ocean reptile

First Described By: Merriam, 1904

Classification: Biota, Archaea, Proteoarchaeota, Asgardarchaeota, Eukaryota, Neokaryota, Scotokaryota, Opimoda, Podiata, Amorphea, Obazoa, Opisthokonta, Holozoa, Filozoa, Choanozoa, Animalia, Eumetazoa, Parahoxozoa, Bilateria, Nephrozoa, Deuterostomia, Chordata, Olfactores, Vertebrata, Craniata, Gnathostomata, Eugnathostomata, Osteichthyes, Sarcopterygii, Rhipidistia, Tetrapodomorpha, Eotetrapodiformes, Elpistostegalia, Stegocephalia, Tetrapoda, Reptiliomorpha, Amniota, Sauropsida, Romeriida Diapsida, Neodiapsida, Thalattosauria, Thalattosauroidea, Thalattosauridae

Referred Species: T. alexandrae, T. borealis, T.? shastaensis

Status: Extinct 

Time and Place: 237 to 221 million years ago, from the Carnian to the Norian of the Late Triassic

Thalattosaurus is known from California and British Columbia.

Physical Description: Thalattosaurus was a member of the thalattosaurs, a clade of marine reptiles endemic to the Triassic. It had a long and slender body, about 2 meters (7 feet) long with a powerful, paddle-like tail. Like Askeptosaurus, which we have talked about before, Thalattosaurus’s limbs were likely webbed, but not heavily modified into paddles - they still had distinct fingers and claws.

Thalattosaurus’s skull is where things get weird. The front of the upper snout is distinctly downturned and narrower than the corresponding part of the lower jaw. The premaxilla lacked teeth, but had blunt “pseudodont” projections that resembled teeth. Actual teeth were present on the lower jaw and in the back of the jaws, which were robust. The lower jaw had pointy teeth anteriorly and both jaws had broad, bumpy teeth posteriorly. The eye sockets were large and the nares were directed somewhat dorsally.

Diet: The broad, chunky teeth in the back of the jaws suggest Thalattosaurus ate shellfish of various sorts, although I doubt it was particularly picky and wouldn’t turn down a fish or two.

Behavior: Although Thalattosaurus was a good swimmer, it likely spent a good amount of its time on the shore resting and sunning, going out to sea to feed. Its claws would have been useful for clinging onto rocks in heavy surf. It may have caught cephalopods such as ammonites in the open water, using the anterior teeth and pseudodonts to pry out the fleshy bits from the shell (or, failing that, just crush the shell with the back teeth). If I may speculate, it may have also rooted through the sandy seafloor for buried shellfish.

Ecosystem: Thalattosaurus alexandrae and T.? shastaensis are known from the Hosselkus Limestone of California. This was a coastal marine environment, and was also home to the thalattosaur Nectosaurus, the giant ichthyosaur Shastasaurus, and the sharks Hybodus and Acrodus. T. borealis is known from the slightly earlier Sulphur Mountain Formation of British Columbia, which was also home to conodonts, the thalattosaur Paralonectes, and the relatively small ichthyosaur Pharalodon.

Other: The T. alexandrae fossils were collected in the early 1900’s by a team from the University of California. The expedition was very fruitful, recovering many marine reptile remains representing at least three genera, although the area was filled with mountain lions. The recovered material is probably stored in the same building where I wrote this post (although I know at least some of the UCMP’s marine reptile material is stored in a clock tower on campus).
