daisy jones & the six, by taylor jenkins reid

but music is never about music. if it was, we’d be writing songs about guitars. but we don’t. we write songs about women.

IN LIBRAS LIBERTAS december book club pick. honey girl by morgan rogers

it will not be simple, grace porter, and it will not be easy. you may have to make a lot of noise, and the universe’s silence can be oppressive and thick. but you want them to hear you, and they will. so do not, not even for one second, stop making noise.

The moonlight moves, a cool slash across the foot of the bed, and August squeezes her eyes shut. There’s no point to it, loving a girl who can’t touch the ground. August knows this. But to kiss and be kissed. To be wanted. That’s a different thing from love. And maybe, maybe if she tried, they could have something. Not everything, but something.

She smiled then, her eyes red, her cheeks scattered with some kind of dust. It was a smile he thought he might die to earn again.

@storyseekers event 17 : art in books — music : daisy jones & the six

it is what i have always loved about music. not the sounds or the crowds or the good times as much as the words — the emotions, and the stories, the truth — that you can let flow right out of your mouth.

the court doesn't care what my name is or where I'm from or where I'll be tomorrow. it lets me e x i s t as I am.

“ the trousers and jacket do not make me a man, and the necklace does not make me a woman. they are only what makes me feel beautiful and powerful in this moment. i am exactly as i choose to be. ”

i saw then how i had changed. i did not mind anymore that i lost when we raced and i lost when we swam out to the rocks and i lost when we tossed spears or skipped stones. for who can be ashamed to lose to such beauty?

Jude Duarte and Cardan Greenbriar

“Have I told you how hideous you look tonight?” Cardan asks, leaning back in the elaborately carved chair, the warmth of his words turning the question into something like a compliment.

“No” I say, glad to be annoyed back into the present. “Tell me.” “I can’t.”

one last stop by casey mcquiston

“I fell in love with you the day I met you, and then I fell in love with the person you remembered you are. I got to fall in love with you twice. That’s—that’s magic. You’re the first thing I’ve believed in since—since I don’t even remember, okay, you’re—you’re movies and destiny and every stupid, impossible thing, and it’s not because of the fucking train, it’s because of you. It’s because you fight and you care and you’re always kind but never easy, and you won’t let anything take that away from you. You’re my fucking hero, Jane. I don’t care if you think you’re not one. You are.”

but in shakespeare’s world, passion is irresistible, not embarrassing.

“I am sorry,” Anna said, with a slight, formal bow. “I didn’t realize you were here.” She turned to go, but Ariadne hastened across the room to her, holding out a hand. “Anna, please. I want to talk to you.” Anna paused, staring at the door. Her heart beat loudly in her ears. She cursed herself quietly; she should be long past feeling this way. So foolish. So young. I am Anna Lightwood, she told herself. Nothing touches me.

later, we lay on the riverbank, learning the lines of each other’s bodies anew. this, and this and this. we were like gods at the dawning of the world, and our joy was so bright we could see nothing else but the other.

@queercreators event 02: romance — alex and henry + @mcquistonsource event 04: love

should i tell you that when we’re apart, your body comes back to me in dreams? that when I sleep, i see you, the dip of your waist, the freckle above your hip, and when i wake up in the morning, it feels like i’ve just been with you, the phantom touch of your hand on the back of my neck fresh and not imagined? that i can feel your skin against mine, and it makes every bone in my body ache? that, for a few moments, i can hold my breath and be back there with you, in a dream, in a thousand rooms, nowhere at all?

dedicated to @kingsmage, alex to my henry ♡

True. But at the same time I've been struggling with this concepts when it comes to friends.

I have the tendency to put a lot of effort into my friendships even when I receive nothing in exchange. I found the line between being a good friend and being taken advantage impossible to see.

Maybe I just have to learn to work for my applause?

Laudation!!!!!

With the country now at war, Mayor LaGuardia launched a city campaign to conserve water. This was one of a number of ads (for the subway, presumably) designed by Earl Kerkam, ca. 1942.
