at first i got struck at the idea of bill's mom nicknaming him "Silly Billy" and then i had the image of him stuck in a dog cone and then spiraled from there
image description under cut!
[Image Description: The first drawing is of Bill Cipher, splintering cracks over his face and in his orange jumpsuit, sitting down with his hat in one hand, and the single atom left behind of his home dimension floating in his other hand. He has a forlorn look on his expression.]
[The second drawing is of Bill Cipher, still with his cracks but now without his jumpsuit. However, he still has a tracker anklet on. He's wearing a dog cone and is grumpy about wearing it. End image description.]
[The third drawing, he is freed from the cone. Instead, stickers litter his face ranging from a smiley face over a crack, a rainbow sticker, hearts and a star and a little cat face. He looks almost bored, or exhausted, having given up on resistance. He's accompanied by Mabel Pines, sitting on her knees and hunched over a sticker page, looking up at Dipper Pines besides her who is gesturing at her and Bill, befuddled at the situation.]
[The fourth drawing is of baby Bill Cipher, but as an older interpretation; he has black arms and legs. A pair of disembodied arms accompany him. One is holding a cup with a green silly straw sticking out of it, and the other is squeezing his cheek and cooing, "And make sure you drink it all this time, you Silly Billy!" Bill whines back, "MOOOOM! Don't CALL me thaat."]
[The fifth drawing is of Bill Cipher, covered in blood instead of cracks or stickers. His eye is large and sparkly, and he's poking himself in the cheek and acting bashful. He's accompanied with the text, "C'moon I'm just a silly Bill!" with a little heart emoji besides it. End image description]

Y’all so I’m Brazilian but I moved to the US aged 18 without my family for college. My parents are still in Brazil. I’m also a big reader, and one thing that made me upset when I moved to the US was how expensive books in Portuguese are here. They can cost 5x what I would pay in Brazil!
I complained to my parents that I really wanted to read a specific book by a Brazilian writer called Machado de Assis, but it was super expensive here in the United States. Today I get this text from my mom:
Translation: daughter, your father bought you this
It’s a box set. Of pretty much EVERY BOOK by Machado de Assis. What?????
#unfortunately I will have to wait until I go home in August to have them since this doesn’t ship to fucking California 😭#I made the mistake of telling my dad earlier that I wanted to read a book by Jorge Amado and now I’m worried that upon arriving in Brazil I#will find his entire bibliography on my bed

treated myself to a nice cup of Mystery Plant today u_u
#on one hand i could've waited till after the hairspring exam to treat myself#but on the other this week has been somewhat harrowing and i wanted to give myself a little highlight#this was so tastie. it was layers of cake crumbs; cream; rhubarb and caramel#another highlight is that the physical copy of a book about clock history arrived#which is actually really nice for my thesis writing#btw did u know the hourglass was invented around the same time as mechanical clocks. isn't that wild#before mechanical clocks ppl used water clocks and candles#and sun clocks of course but they were super unreliable and impractical

The Long Winter hits very differently in a post-pandemic world. Now it's not just "we almost died because it was such a long, cold winter." It's specifically a story about supply chain issues.
In other books, the Ingalls family could have weathered a snowy winter pretty well. They almost never went to town, and they raised and stocked up enough supplies to get through the whole winter. But in South Dakota, they didn't have time to raise much of a crop their first year there. They lived a mile from town and relied on trains getting through to bring supplies. So they were out of almost everything by Christmas.
Instead of homemade candles, they were burning kerosene--which came by train. Instead of meat they hunted or slaughtered themselves, they were living on salt pork--sent by train. Instead of wood, they had only coal for fuel--which comes by train. And so on and so forth. They relied on a vast shipping infrastructure to bring what they needed, which meant they were out of luck when that supply line was stopped. The problems in this book come not so much from their world being too primitive, but because they relied on it being too advanced. And it all feels very familiar from personal experience.
#the long winter#little house#laura ingalls wilder#and that's why i now classify this story as a science fiction book#it's all about how technology affects the lives of these characters#you could tell the exact same story about settlers on a colony world waiting for supply ships to arrive#it's all the same thing

Working on a little project this weekend
#i have to reorder some of the decorative paper i want to use#so the printed pages will probably just hang out on my desk for a while#because once i bind the text block i'll have to wait for the paper to arrive#but it takes a long time (and a LOT of paper and ink!) to print this book and i'll be glad to have that done
