Reality sucks so show me your favourite spaceships. Mine is above (the Enterprise D from Star Trek TNG).

Please fill my tumblr timeline with spaceship joy. Remember to tell us all what the ship is and from what source. Post as many as you like. This is about joy.

unfortunately i do agree with johnny depp that 20 years ago he would have slayed as arturo binewski 😔 i just know a tim burton Geek Love would have been one of the best movies of its time

do you ever feel sad when you find a prettier cover of a book you already own?

cuz yeah that was me finding this adorable copy of Geek Love. The copy I own is just… solid orange with blue text. This is so much better. plus it gives fall vibes, which feels perfect for this book

I originally read Geek Love in college, and it’s definitely one of the best books I’ve had to read for a class. If you’re looking for some litfic with a hint of horror for spooky season, I highly recommend it. (even if you get the worse cover)

Geek Love by Katherine Dunecover re-design. A book about a carny couple who experimented with drugs to breed their own freak show. Normal stuff :- )

[because the original cover... Yes the orange one... was not my favorite and I am pissed cuz it could have been more... lets just say that]

Shakespeare was so right when he said there’s something delicious about a main character who, completely through choices they made on their own and often with good intention, ruins fucking everything. 

Touraine fucking everything up in a futile attempt to protect the Sands in The Unbroken. Misaki choosing tradition and family and marrying Takeru only to put herself in a deep depression for 2 decades and never really love her sons until it was too late in The Sword of Kaigen. Ouyang destroying the only person he loved out of deep resentment and self hate in She who Became the Sun. The Binewskis’ self destruction as the psychopath children each try to chase their own happiness to the detriment of the others in Geek Love. Harrow and Gideon’s whole relationship in The Locked Tomb. Literally the entire plot of in The Traitor Baru Cormorant.

Yet I hope that someday you'll come to collect us all from the shelves of the vault. Take down Arty and Chick and Papa and the twins, and all that's left of the Jar Kin, and, by then, Lily and me. Open our metal jars and pour all the Binewski dust together into that big battered loving cup that first held only Grandpa B. Bolt us to the hood of your traveling machine and take us on the road again.

a megalomaniac charismatic cult leader brother with no arms or legs and an albino hunchback dwarf sister with a pathetic crush is something that can actually be so personal.......
