My fab little cousin Saba Sams wrote a collection a short stories called ā€œSend Nudesā€ published by Bloomsbury and it’s about all sorts of exciting/terrifying🚨 things that young people have to deal with today—it’s treacherous terrain out there—negotiating hookups at music festivals, dating apps, grimy pubs, toxic friendships, ambivalent parents, and social pressures. I rarely read fiction but this was witty and tender and I loved it.

Sunburn by Chloe Michelle Howarth is a beautiful book set in the 90s in Ireland. it’s a tender portrayal of first love, growing up and living in a small town.
I wanted more!! I was so sad when it ended :(
Anyone who has read it have any similar recs?

It’s punchy, exciting, little bit violent, very sexy. Will keep you GRIPPED and is compulsively readable. If not that, then ā€˜we had to remove this post’ by hanna bervoets is perfect for getting out of a slump. it’s short and fascinating

Cleanliness is godliness ! ESP when that cleanliness is given to you by 20,000 year old water from deep inside our earth. I have a whole map saved on my phone of secret and not-so-secret hot springs all over the USA and Europe. Happiest when dunked in hot water (*see spas, above)

Maybe it’s because one time I was lucky enough to live in a house with a sauna, or as a rowdy teenager I spent after-hours on weekends at London’s gay bathhouses, but, truly, still, at least once a week I need to decompress in a spa. When I lived in the Bay Area, I’d go to the Kabuki or the Russian Banya, and sit in silence and sweat. In L.A. I’ll nip down to Koreatown. Even the seedy spas are fab. I just want to exfoliate. Pls send spa tipsĀ šŸ™šŸ¼

I’ll wear them until they are just raggedy scraps of leather hanging off my feet. I usually go for a sturdy boot situation—right now it’s the R.M Williams Craftsman boot—I’ll wear them to traipse through a bog one day and to a wedding the next.
