Guides, patterns, and history on making stained glass pieces!

Having finally moved somewhere with good enough airflow to solder(reminder it's important to wear a mask and have good ventilation!), I decided to start looking for resources and related topics.

Being raised in a super strict IFB household, surging years of abuse being justified by “biblical discipline “ has left me searching for books that leave me feeling more informed, and like I’m not alone in surviving toxicity. These books do just that.

my favourite science fiction

Books framed as a character sharing their story, often times directly addressing their audience. This isn't just first person, this is "I've written down what happened to me/them to set the record straight." Recommendations welcome!

spooky or even horror books for all who usually don‘t read spooky or horror books bc they are a little scared

A great book leaves you diffrent then it finds you. These one's more then the rest. Some changed my thinking (Yes Man), some educated me (Time after time) and some just made me feel (Fahrenheit 451).

Wholesome, beautiful stories in fantastical worlds; magic

From main characters to love interests to best friends, I'd like to share a list of Japanese manga featuring trans men and masc people. Some transitions might be more "fantastical" than others (like waking up in a guy's body one day or becoming a guy in a new world because of portal fantasy).

NOTE: I personally will not add stories where the character is written to be a "cuntboy". Similar to "futanari", these are derogatory fetish terms used in hentai.

Books written about/in Brixton or by authors who lived there. Open to recs!

i used to have a book bin in the bathroom, mostly short stories and anthologies you could read in one go. @scampireads said that could be a list, so here it is. short story books, one story per visit. some are ultra-short (quickies, for those in a hurry), others give you ten minutes, in case your stomach is acting up. a few run longer, skip those unless you want half an hour in there and everyone at home worried. recommendations are much appreciated! (books in english and spanish)

👎

Fantasy books that have illicited strong emotions, often as they are burrowing into your bones and making a comfortable home there

Queer families, allo-parenting, building a chosen family, raising kids in community

Some books to explore the lives, art, and times of the Bloomsbury group (and some of their friends and family)

For when music just won't cut it and you need a new weird hyperfixation.

All the books I have come across that include Fairies and the folk.
