Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf is my Number #1 Study Spot.

It has the perfect atmosphere, mostly because in my place, students go there to study, and people who do Work From Home work there.

We have a nice jazz music, the perfect view of the sea, and a calming ambiance that makes it so easy to focus. Whether it’s a stack of textbooks or a laptop filled with tasks, the environment here just clicks with the flow of productivity. The staff is also incredibly friendly, and the smell of freshly brewed coffee adds a cozy charm to the experience.

That fae OC of mine who is void of color (black hair/black eyes) and is looked upon as a blemish by the older fae and decides to go all out and wear only black clothing with a sharpness who actually has a good friend group who loves their little black hole. They love him so much. He's just their special little void.

I think they'd be cute, to be honest, and if they don't have a ship name yet, I vote for "HavocSpecter" :)

Bonus doodle and rambles underneath the cut

This idea/OC has been floating in my brain rent free for the past month or so, and I finally decided to sketch it out last night.

Watered-down summary: a novice pilot who crash landed into another world, and somehow babysits a danger noodle along the way.

you may have addressed this in the past, but i am pretty sure i'm too dumb to read james joyce. how do you improve your reading comprehension? i'd like to move beyond the nyt bestseller list, but going from stephen king to faulkner seems like a steep jump.

Nobody is too dumb to read a book, but plenty of people have been conditioned into perpetual incuriosity.  The only way to improve reading comprehension is by reading outside of your comfort zone, which necessarily means letting go of the notion that the relationship between an artist and their audience is adversarial, and that a challenging work of art is booby-trapped with mean tricks designed to make you feel bad.

What do you do when you run into a word or concept that you don't immediately understand in the wild? You don't (I fervently hope) drop what you're reading like a hot potato—you keep reading to see if there’s clarification, and if there's none, you find a reliable source that gives you the definition, context, and examples, then circle back. What do you do when you're watching a movie you haven't seen before and the camera lingers on a random detail, or a character makes an inexplicable choice? Unless you are my dad, you give the story a chance to play out before asking what the deuce is going on. 

Faulkner and Joyce aren't cyphers, which is why their short fiction is a standard in the public high school English curriculum, and As I Lay Dying and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man are frequently assigned to juniors and seniors in AP classes—but even their denser writing is more accessible now than it's ever been. Over the past century, so many people have loved them enough to devote their lives to studying their work—and they’ve passed the savings down to you. They’ve written annotations that explain literary, historical, and biographical context and that's aligned with the pagination of the books, they’ve integrated hyperlinks into the hypertext.

There's exactly one (1) acceptable excuse not to read Faulkner or Joyce: not wanting to read Faulkner or Joyce.  You don't even need to give them a chance—millions of people (among them, many prolific and intelligent readers) have and will continue to live rich, meaningful lives after deciding that a particular book or author is simply not a priority, even if the author is famous and the book highly recommended by several friends who wear glasses.

If you can parse this passage from Pet Sematary, you can parse just about anything Joyce throws at you:

not to continue the angst train but i'm thinking about chris having really bad panic attacks leading up to when the pilot (not the pilot) is supposed to air, partly because he knows there's more at stake if the play goes wrong because his dad's going to be here and he needs so badly to impress him and prove to him that this is something worth doing, that he's meant to be in theater........but also because he's just really fucking afraid of his father and the idea of him being here in his (relatively) safe space is terrifying to him, and he really doesn't want to admit that to anyone so he downplays the hell out of what he's going through even though it's obvious to everyone that he's an anxious, irritable mess lashing out like a wounded animal during practices :'))
