10 August 2024 Book Releases to Put On Your Radar
It’s nearly the end of summer, and that means the book releases are picking back up again. There’s so many incredible books coming out that I desperately want to read, and I’m hopeful that y’all will feel the same way after reading this list! Happy August! As always, this list does not contain books by St. Martin’s Griffin or related imprints as part of the boycott for accountability on the part��

Happy International Lesbian Day! Here's some super brief book recs to celebrate
Books dealing with love, loss, longing and abandonment
This is How You Lose The Time War is a short but beautifully written epistolary novel between two agents on opposite sides of a time war as they slowly fall in love.
Our Wives Under the Sea is one of the most beautifully written debuts I've ever read about a woman whose wife comes home wrong after they thought she'd died at sea and how it feels to grieve the loss of someone who's still in your home.
Lucky Red is a western novel about a young girl working in a brothel who meets her first female gunslinger and falls head over heels for her, and the consequences that come with loving dangerous people.
Body horror galore
Camp Damascus is about a young woman living in a super conservative christian town built around the worlds most successful conversion camp and the horrors that are uncovered there when praying the gay away fails.
To Be Devoured is about a woman whose fascination with the local vultures turns into obsession and the urge to know what carrion tastes like overtakes her life and leads her down stranger and stranger paths.
Chlorine is about a girl whose entire life revolves around being a competitive swimmer, and how abuse, neglect, and obsession with being the best takes its toll on the young women caught up in these destructive cycles.
Flawed character studies
Big Swiss is about a woman who has a kitchen floor reset in her 40s, moves away and starts a new life as a transcriber for a sex therapist and becomes obsessed with one of his clients before inserting herself into this poor woman's life.
The Seep is a speculative sci-fi set in a future where there's been a quiet alien invasion that has given people the ability to make almost any changes to their own bodies and what that world feels like to someone who doesn't want to partake.
Milk Fed is about a woman in therapy who feels cut off from almost everything until she meets another woman who triggers in her a melding of sex, hunger, and religion and where that takes her. Huge trigger warnings for ED content. It gets tough, y'all.
Fantastical wlw books
Bitterthorn is an amalgamation of fairytales retold as a slow burn sapphic love story between a sad young girl from a cursed land and the evil witch who takes her as a companion in the latest of the generational sacrifices made to appease her.
All the Bad Apples may be set in contemporary Ireland but it is a fairytale following a young girl as she travels across the country looking for a sister she refuses to believe is dead and the people she meets along the way.
Gideon the Ninth needs no introduction on this site but for the sake of formatting - lesbian necromancers in space who find themselves in an isolated murder mystery plot. It's not a romance but it is a love story and this series will change your life if you let it.
Translated novels
Boulder is a short character study following a free spirited woman when she accidentally settles down with the woman she loves and how love and resentment can take up the same space in your chest when life doesn't turn out the way you hoped it would.
Notes of a Crocodile is a cult classic coming of age story about queer teens in Taipei in the 1980s. It was written in the 90s so please keep that in mind if you choose to read it.
Paradise Rot is about an international student studying in Australia and her growing obsession with her housemate as they share a space that allows no privacy. I've never read anything that feels stickier.

Unofficial resolution to write weird porn again in 2k24. We'll see how it goes.

hi eddie i am at ur sleepover and i brought snacks -> 🍿🍩🍕 :D how about. top three doctor who episodes + top three books you've read in the last year?
Hi! Yippee I am throwing a popcorn kernel at ur head playfully. Can I say heaven sent. Basic I KNOW but. But. Also world enough and time/ the doctor falls. Also I love the doctor dances. Sorry to everyone who wanted me to name some deep cuts lol
Best books: Jeff Vandermeer’s hummingbird salamander is SO good please please read it everyone. Unlikeable middle aged woman protagonist… ecoterrorism…. Beautiful prose… literally it’s perfect speculative fiction, it’s not really scifi but it’s not like. Straight fiction. For sure.
Um I am gonna mention Brainwyrms by Allison rumfit. MASSIVE trigger warnings for csa, transphobia, extreme body horror, specifically body horror involving genitals. But I did read it in one day…. One day I was *at work*, like I devoured this thing on my COMMUTE. Also I’m a sicko and love extreme horror
Ok in lieu of a third book I’m doing a lightning round. Those two are just the first two off the top of my head anyway. Ok: the lathe of heaven, the trees (Percival Everett), the last white man, lonely castle in the mirror, boulder (eve baltasar)

@scorciare -- continued!
There’d been someone else here all evening, he’d felt their presence yet couldn’t pin-point their body in the masses of people. Another dark entity looking for a meal among unsuspecting humans, frequently shifting and darting through the hustle-and-bustle of the New Year’s Eve crowd. The Dhampir had been trying to locate and irradiate them all evening; it had been the task set for him by one of his superiors, to ensure that there was no unnecessary disturbance on Lohr property. They did not need extra eyes on their name, after all --
-- Found them!
Dhampir, female, too focused on something else to notice his presence -- Baltasar’s red eyes followed her gaze and found something he did not expect ... a familiar face. Someone’d he met not long ago, still relatively unknown to him yet intriguing enough to hold his attention; to have his feet move instinctively in her direction as the countdown signalled the end of the year. He was unsure what compelled him so, but as the clock chimed and cheers rung out, he’d pulled her into a kiss that neither of them had really anticipated.
“ Listen to me, ” He’d just about heard her words over all the noise, but had felt a little too embarrassed to acknowledge them. The broad hands still resting on her shoulders pulled her closer; he eyed the other Dhampir as she eyed him, her face full of fury as realisation had finally hit. “ We need to get you away from here ... you’re being followed. ”
#scorciare#VERSE: Supernatural Beings;;#this?? got really long#BUT i hope this is okay#bal kissing her to keep her safe?? and maybe so another dhampir couldn't have her... lmao. i'm not sure what the intention-ratio is here but#the overall result is Somewhat Wholesome

Courage Quotes About Life, Strength and Facing Fear
Looking for motivating courage quotes that will help you be brave in the face of challenges?
Many people think it is in the grand gestures and the major acts.
However, courage can be in the small choices that we make each day, in doing something despite being afraid of it.
It’s facing a fear, or jumping into something, even if we are unsure of the outcome.
What does it mean to have courage? How can we be more courageous in our daily life?
If we take stock in ourselves and our thoughts and actions, we may find that we have more courage than we give ourselves credit for.
More importantly, we need to refine our definition of what courage truly is.
Here are some inspiring, wise, and powerful courage quotes, courage sayings, and courage proverbs on what it is, and how different it can look to each and every one of us.
Courage quotes for pushing past fear
1.) “One isn’t necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can’t be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.”- Maya Angelou
2.) “Without courage, wisdom bears no fruit.”- Baltasar Gracian
3.) “Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.”- Anais Nin
4.) “When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don’t you quit.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint on the clouds of doubt,
And you can never tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar.
So, stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit
“It’s when things go wrong that you mustn’t quit.”- Unknown
5.) “Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true happiness.”- Bertrand Russell
6.) “The best way out is always through.”- Robert Frost
7.) “Only be you strong, and very courageous, then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.” – Joshua 1:7-8
8.) “The greatest test of courage on the earth is to bear defeat without losing heart.”- R. G. Ingersoll
9.) “It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”- Theodore Roosevelt
10.) “Don’t get discouraged; it is often the last key in the bunch that opens the lock.”- Unknown
Courage Quotes about life
11.) “To dare is to lose one’s footing momentarily. To not dare is to lose oneself.”- Soren Kierkegaard
12.) “Remember that failure is an event, not a person.”- Unknown
13.) “Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right.”- Ralph Waldo Emerson
14.) “Courage is rightly esteemed the first of human qualities . . . because it is the quality which guarantees all others.” – Winston Churchill
15.) “The encouraging thing is that every time you meet a situation, though you may think at the impossibility and you go through the tortures of the damned, once you have met it and lived through it you find that forever after you are freer than you ever were before. If you can live through that you can live through anything.
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, `I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ The danger lies in refusing to face the fear, in not daring to come to grips with it.
If you fail anywhere along the line, it will take away your confidence. You must make yourself succeed every time. You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” – Eleanor Roosevelt, You Learn By Living (1960)
16.) “The desire for safety stands against every great and noble enterprise.” – Tacitus, Roman historian
Quotes about courage and success
17.) “I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflections.” – Thomas Paine
18.) “There is nothing in the world so much admired as a man who knows how to bear unhappiness with courage.” – Seneca
19.) “Bravery is a complicated thing to describe. You can’t say it’s three feet long and two feet wide and that it weighs four hundred pounds or that it’s colored bright blue or that it sounds like a piano or that it smells like roses. It’s a quality, not a thing.” – Mickey Mantle, The Quality of Courage
20.) “Courage is doing what you’re afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you’re scared.” – Eddie Rickenbacker, World War I hero
21.) “Fight hard when you are down; die hard—determine at least to do—and you won’t die at all.” – James H. West
Inspiring Courage Quotes about fighting for your dreams
22.) “Whatever your sex or position, life is a battle in which you are to show your pluck, and woe be to the coward. Whether passed on a bed of sickness or a tented field, it is ever the same fair play and admits no foolish distinction. Despair and postponement are cowardice and defeat. Men were born to succeed, not to fail.” – Henry David Thoreau
23.) “What separates the winners from the losers is how a person reacts to each new twist of fate.” – Donald Trump
24.) “Courage is not limited to the battlefield or the Indianapolis 500 or bravely catching a thief in your house. The real tests of courage are much quieter. They are the inner tests, like remaining faithful when nobody’s looking, like enduring pain when the room is empty, like standing alone when you’re misunderstood.” – Charles Swindoll
25.) “Never let the fear of striking out get in your way.” – Babe Ruth
26.) “No captain can do very wrong if he places his ship alongside that of the enemy.” – Admiral Horatio Nelson
27.) “[Admiral Nelson’s counsel] guided me time and again. On the eve of the critical battle of Santa Cruz, in which the Japanese ships outnumbered ours more than two to one, I sent my task force commanders this dispatch: ATTACK REPEAT ATTACK. They did attack, heroically, and when the battle was done, the enemy turned away.
All problems, personal, national, or combat, become smaller if you don’t dodge them, but confront them. Touch a thistle timidly, and it pricks you; grasp it boldly, and its spines crumble. Carry the battle to the enemy! Lay your ship alongside his!” – Admiral William “Bull” Halsey
28.) “Trust the still, small voice that says, “this might work and I’ll try it.” – Diane Mariechild
29.) “Come to the edge, He said.
They said: We are afraid.
Come to the edge, He said.
They came. He pushed them,
And they flew . . .” – Guillaume Apollinaire, French poet
Courage quotes about strength and love
30.) “Never forget that no military leader has ever become great without audacity.” – Karl von Clausewitz
31.) “Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.” – Winston Churchill, British Prime Minister
32.) “To look at something as though we had never seen it before requires great courage.” – Henri Matisse
33.) “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear – not the absence of fear. Except a creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave.” – Mark Twain, The Tragedy of Pudd’nhead Wilson
34.) “Courage is being scared to death—but saddling up anyway.” – John Wayne
35.) “Begin it now. The moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. ”
36.) “We need to wake up from a thought that lasts too long.” – Paul Valéry
37.) “In the age-old contest between popularity and principle, only those willing to lose for their convictions are deserving of posterity’s approval.” – Gerald R. Ford
38.) “To uncover your true potential you must first find your own limits and then you have to have the courage to blow past them.” – Picabo Street
39.) “Courage is more exhilarating than fear and in the long run it is easier. We do not have to become heroes overnight.

Burada yazar, çalışanı motive etmek için işverenin hakkını ödemesi gerektiğini vurgularken, aynı zamanda çalışanın da aldığı parayı hakkedecek düzeyde kaliteli bir iş çıkarması için gereken çabayı göstermesi gerektiğini vurguluyor.
2. Yaşamaya vaktim kalsın diye hızlıca çalışıyorum. (Montserrat Caballé)
Burada ise kişi, çalışmanın ve üretmenin nihai amaç değil de bir araç olduğundan bahsetmek istiyor. İşini pratik ve doğru şekilde, hızlıca çalışarak yaparak, çalışmanın sonunda elde edeceğin şeylerin keyfini sürecek vaktinin kalmasının önemini vurguluyor.
3. Sürekli kendinize bir iş çıkarın, böylece şeytan her zaman meşgul olur. (San Jerónimo)

Çalışmaktan sıkılanların aslında iş yapmak değil de rutin hayattan sıkılmakta olduklarını vurgulayan bir söz.

Her ne kadar çalışmanın önemli olduğunu düşünse de, sağlığından canından ve keyfinden önemli olmadığını, fazla hırsın kişiye zarar verebileceğini vurgulayan bir cümle
8. Şansıma değil, emeğime güvenirim. (Latin atasözü)
Şans ederi bir şeylere sahip olma olasılığınız çok düşük iken, yeterince emek vererek ve istikrarlı bir şekilde çalışarak her şeye sahip olmanızın çok yüksek olasılık olduğuna vurgu yapan güzel bir söz.
9. Çalışın! Çalışmaya yemek almak için değilse bile ilaç olarak ihtiyacınız var. (William Penn)
Sadece para kazanmak için değil, aynı zamanda psikolojinizin sağlığı için, ruhunuzun da beslenmesi için üretmeniz, çalışmanız ve çabalamanız gerektiğini anlatan bir cümle.

Akademy-es 2018, una experiencia muy ‘gnulinuxera’ en pleno corazón de Valencia
Este fin de semana se celebró en Valencia la Akademy-es 2018, la decimotercera edición ya de este “encuentro anual de desarrolladores, colaboradores y usuarios de KDE en España” y la primera a la que he podido asistir. Y aunque no pensaba publicar nada al respecto, porque fui a título personal, hacía tanto tiempo que no me pasaba por un evento de carácter puramente comunitario que la experiencia me resultó muy refrescante, así que aquí estoy para contaros un poco cómo fue la cosa.
Lo primero, felicitaciones a los organizadores. Comenzando por el sitio escogido, el Real Monasterio de Nuestra Señora del Carmen, un convento fundado en el siglo XIII en pleno casco antiguo de la ciudad, reconvertido hoy en centro cultural multidisciplinar que lo mismo alberga exposiciones, que eventos como el que nos ocupa. Además de interesante por lo histórico y las actividades que allí tienen lugar, está perfectamente comunicado. Un diez para la localización. Bueno, un nueve, más adelante explicaré el porqué. En cualquier caso, si pasáis por Valencia el barrio de El Carmen es de visita obligada, y ahí es donde encontraréis este sitio, al que os recomiendo entrar aunque sea para echar un vistazo.
Otro acierto fue la programación de las charlas, por lo variado de los contenidos y por lo ágil de las mismas, de corta duración y con descansos frecuentes para tomar algún refrigerio. ¡No faltaron almuerzos ni meriendas! Como tampoco faltó una gran de paella -valenciana, no “arroz con cosas”, que dijo con gracia alguien de la organización- para comer el sábado, si bien los vegetarianos y veganos tenían sus alternativas… que igualmente acabamos devorando entre todos. Y todo “gratis”.
Reial Monestir de la Mare de Déu del Carme de València
¿Quién pagaba la fiesta? Patrocinadores como openSUSE y Slimbook, que también formaban parte de la organización y tenían un stand en la entrada.
Ahora paso a resumir lo que dieron de sí las charlas a las que pude asistir, que no fueron todas por diferentes motivos.
Viernes 11
A media tarde daba arranque la Akademy-es 2018 y tras una escueta presentación de bienvenida comenzaba la primera charla. Baltasar Ortega, miembro de KDE España y editor del veterano KDE Blog, se subía al estrado para contarnos 5 maravillas de Plasma 5, aunque como él mismo decía, podrían haber sido muchas más si el tiempo lo hubiese permitido. Nos habló de funciones del escritorio, aplicaciones y comunidad, pero no os doy más detalles, los tenéis más abajo.
Acto seguido aparecía en escena Albert Astals Cid, prolífico desarrollador de KDE y autor de ese estupendo visor de documentos que es Okular. Por el título su charla me intrigaba desde que vi el programa del evento, ya que trataba de Linux en Múnich… y sabiendo cómo ha terminado todo, ¿qué se supone que iba a contar? Pues bien, resumió lo conocido y agregó un dato importante, como es el que sigue trabajando en arreglar errores que le piden desde el ayuntamiento alemán.
El tercer ponente de la tarde fue Raúl Rodrigo, desarrollador de Lliurex, la distribución educativa de la Comunidad Valenciana. En tiempo récord se marcó un tutorial exprés acerca de cómo montar una distro Linux desde cero, para lo cual eligió Arch Linux como base. Como os imagináis, un tema así es tan difícil de explicar como de asimilar, dadas las restricciones horarias, por lo que no faltó quien le pidió que lo subiera a Internet para revisarlo con calma (cuando me entere de dónde ha ido a parar lo compartiré por aquí).
El stand de Slimbook | Imagen: @slimbookES
La sesión continuaba con Voro Mataix, quien presentaba a los asistentes GNU/Linux Valencia, una incipiente comunidad de usuarios y entusiastas del software libre que ya se ha reunido en más de una ocasión, y en torno a la cual planean realizar diferentes actividades de evangelización, que dirían los veteranos del FLOSS. Si vivís en la terra de la taronja, la chufa y el garrofó y os apasiona por igual GNU y Linux, os hacen sitio seguro. Por el momento cuentan con un canal en Telegram para mantener el contacto.
Pero Voro no se bajó del estrado. A él se unieron Raúl Rodrigo, Ricardo Sancho y Lorenzo Carbonell (desarrollador y bloguero, a quien sin duda conoceréis muchos por su apodo de El atareao), todos ellos miembros de GNU/Linux Valencia, para iniciar, junto con los asistentes que se animaron a participar, un coloquio sobre el lanzamiento de Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. La verdad es que fue entretenido y casi sin darnos cuenta había terminado.
Sábado 12
Sábado sabadate. Me levanto… escribo el PING a toda prisa… y pierdo el autobús, perdiéndome a su vez las tres primeras charlas de la mañana. Me sentó mal, porque una por las que más interés tenía era la de Antonio Larrosa, presidente de KDE España, sobre Mycroft, una I.A. de software libre para el escritorio. Se trata de un proyecto muy interesante del que apenas hemos mencionado nada en MuyLinux, así que al menos ese fallo tendremos que solventarlo en breve. También me perdía Las metas de KDE de Rubén Gómez, miembro de Hacklab Almería; y Aplicaciones educativas KDE Edu, de nuevo a cargo de Baltasar Ortega.
Total, que me incorporo a la marcha con una nueva charla de Albert Astals Cid, esta vez sobre el lenguaje de programación Rust expuesto para principiantes. Cortocircuité y solo me recuperé con el olor de la paella.

Después de la comida y una sobremesa más alargada de lo previsto, con todo el mundo charrando por los codos, dieron inicio las “charlas relámpago”, exposiciones más rápidas si cabe, en las que se habló de KDE Connect, Plasma Mobile o de openSUSE Leap y Tumbleweed… aunque si tengo que destacar una intervención, es la de Álex Fiestas, desarrollador de KDE que se marcó una introducción a Docker realmente divertida. A todo esto, junto al stand de Slimbook había un Pinebook con Plasma, que tiene su mérito dadas las características de estos equipos; y un móvil con Plasma Mobile que no me resistí a tocar para comprobar lo que me temía, y es que queda un largo camino por recorrer.
La siguiente charla la dio Aleix Pol, vicepresidente de KDE eV, desarrollador de KDE y autor de KDE Discover, precisamente sobre KDE Discover. Ya sabéis quienes nos leéis habitualmente que me encanta KDE, pero con Discover tengo mis peros: el diseño no me termina de encajar y la estabilidad de la aplicación ha sido hasta recientemente motivo de discusión. Aun así, fue curioso conocer cómo se inició el proyecto y cómo ha evolucionado en estos años.
Salí a beber algo y me perdí la charla de Santiago Navarro, presidente de Wikimedia España, acerca de la plataforma que nutre de contenidos audiovisuales a Wikipedia. Lo lamento porque según me contaron, estuvo interesante. Entonces llegó el descanso y la foto de grupo, publicada al rato por KDE Blog.

Alejandro López, director comercial de Slimbook, era el nuevo expositor en saltar al estrado, desde donde nos habló de… Slimbook, sí; de los inicios del proyecto. No estaban ahí por casualidad: además de patrocinadores y organizadores, comercializan el Slimbook KDE, una pequeña fiera idéntica al KATANA II con el que pusimos la guinda a nuestro décimo aniversario -sí, a nosotros también nos acompañó Slimbook-, pero con alma KDE. Para más datos, echad un vistazo a nuestro análisis del KATANA II.
Sin embargo, Alejandro tenía más cosas por contar. En concreto, presentarnos Linux Center, una iniciativa ciertamente interesante, de carácter local y cuya inauguración será el próximo sábado 19 de mayo en un evento de asistencia libre, pero con plazas limitadas, por lo que hay que registrarse. Linux Center trata en esencia de ceder un espacio físico a la comunidad para promover el software libre con actividades de diferente tipo, de charlas, a talleres. Tenéis toda la información en el enlace anterior, pero es probable que dentro de poco le dediquemos un hueco en estas páginas.
Nueva charla y nuevo ponente: Adrián Chaves, traductor de KDE al gallego, quien nos recomendó “usar protección”. ¿Cómo? Prestando atención a lo que hacemos en Internet y poniendo en práctica buenas prácticas, valga la redundancia. Nos habló de privacidad y seguridad de manera amena y sencilla y como es un asunto sobre el que ya estoy bastante concienciado, salí a echar otro traguito… y me perdí definitivamente. También la siguiente charla, en la que José Millán, tesorero de KDE España, repasaba pasado, presente y futuro de la asociación.
Torres dels Serrans
Hasta aquí llega mi experiencia en la Akademy-es 2018. Desafortunadamente, no pude asistir el domingo. Pero aproveché bien todos los descansos -y lo que no fueron descansos…- de los días previos para charlar con mucha gente y lo cierto es que me lo pasé muy bien. Por esa razón he elegido las fotos que veis y no otras, considero que reflejan mejor el ambiente que se vivió.
El único pero se lo pondría a la acústica de la sala de conferencias, que para dar misas promete, pero para charlas técnicas no es la idónea. De ahí el nueve de antes. Por lo demás, nos os perdáis la Akademy-es si pasa cerca de donde vivís, os lo pasaréis bien. La Akademy a lo grande se celebrará el próximo agosto en Viena.
Si os apetece saber más de las charlas y el evento, en el blog de Iyán -uno de los asistentes, desde Asturias vino- encontraréis un resumen de los dos primeros días y en KDE Blog están empezando ahora a colgar lo suyo.
