I'm reading "The Girl Who Played with Fire," the second of Stieg Larsson's books about Lisbeth Salander, she of the Dragon Tattoo. So far, I like it as much as the first book. I can already sense the danger she faces, and wonder how her friend Mikael Blomqvuist will fit into the plot. Good stuff.

I haven't read anything new in quiet some time. However, I am currently rereading Impulse by Ellen Hopkins. It's a teen novel written in verse that I read when I was still in high school. Afterwords, I'll reread either The Loch by Steve Alten or Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card.

If any of you happen to like shark stuff, I would seriously recommend Steve Alten's MEG series. It's like Jaws, but on high dose steroids.

My ex watched first film adaptation of The Girth With the Dragon Tattoo and he said he loved it and has been nagging me to watch it and I must admit, it looks quite phenomenal, so I believe I'll read the novel first, which I may end up doing instead of rereading The Loch or Ender's Game.

Reading Spell Bound, which is the Hex Hall book 3. I really love the main character. Her sarcasm is really funny. Books one and two of the series were great.

I liked the movie and have thought of reading the books but I've heard they're pretty complex. Lots of characters and plot is hard to follow. Is that your experience with them?

The movie I did enjoy, but it was a little hard to follow.

I am currently working my way through Jean Auel's "The Land of the Painted Caves" I have also read, and own, The others in the series. She is a wonderful writer, if just a tad long winded and overly thorough.

Currently working through the Kathy Reichs books.

I am on Monday Mourning now.

She is the forensic anthropologist that the Bones TV series is based on.

I'm reading the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, about halfway through it. It takes me a while to finish reading leisure books because I have a lot of school reading (texts, articles, research), but I can't get to sleep without reading something. I have a week off so hopefully I'll finish it soon. I normally don't read mystery/thrillers but this one has such great reviews. So far I am intrigued.

I have just started reading Subterranean by James Rollins. This is the 4th book by him I have enjoyed. Thriller, mystery, action, history. Dont want to put his books down. Other books I have enjoyed by him are Doomsday Key, The Judas strain, and The last Oracle, Awesome writer who has the ability to keep the reader on edge as to what is coming next and at the same time, paints a story, using words that draws you in.

Well, I just finished Auel's, so now I have started with Dante. I do enjoy a classic now and then.

I'm reading "Pricing Beauty: The Making of a Fashion Model" by Ashley Mears. She is a sociologist who, as part of her PhD thesis, worked as a professional model, conducted interviews with the insiders, and wrote about it from a sociologist's perspective. It's very interesting!! :-)

Oooh! Another Dante fan! Just remember, it is in archaic english, so it may take some getting used to.

Umm, I presume that it is Dante's Divine Comedy, If not then disregard this post.

Reading Automated Alice by Jeff Noon. It's Alice (in Wonderland) time traveling into the future. I'm enjoying it. It's not anywhere near as weird as Vurt.

For my night-time book I'm reading a collection of Philip K. penis's short stories.

Gwenhwyfar by Mercedes Lackey was a blind buy for me but is turning out to be quite an interesting take through King Arthur's tale.

Funny autocorrect. Philip K penis is famazing; have you read "Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep"? Its super-downer, but a very deep take on human empathy and the nature of the soul. penis is my 3rd favorite scifi author behind Bradbury. 451 is mindblowingly good.

Currently rereading Wicked, and then slogging through Steven King's Under the Dome to prepare for the miniseries this summer.

Yep! I love PKD! Do Androids Dream is maybe my favorite of his. Either that or Ubik. I've read quite a few of stuff and hope to get through all of it some day.

I didn't like his Valis triology and Deus Irea he co-authored with Zelazny.

Sorru for Tad Williams but I stopped reading with the second book of this serious called Shadowmarch.

Then started a David Baldacci but thats tossed aside cause I'm now reading finding Kay a transgender odyssey.

Which she so graciously offered us for free download.

And I'm really enjoying reading it.

      Hey girl  I had a problem like you happen to me also. In my first year of estrogen I had a period where my level were good then they got really bad where my testosterone spike high.  I felt like you with all that disforia coming hard. Our bodies need time to adjust. The process is a real pain in the beginning. It levels out eventually and you don't even think about it. Hang in there hugs

      Biden's woke agenda?

      I wonder if there will be law enforcement procedural shows coming this fall. I can imagine Law and Order: Genital Crimes Unit, or perhaps, FBI: Domestic Genitalia. Then again, maybe they will dedicate a CSI program about the dedicated members of the Oklahoma State Police Genital Screening Unit. Good to know that those Oklahomans have their priorities squared away.

      Protections? Well, when they mandate that some who is transgender can get facial and genital electrolysis paid as it is essential to affirming care, or when they mandate and pay for facial feminization surgery, speech therapy/voice affirmation surgery, I will believe that the order is effective. One of biggest hurdles for many transgender individuals is the cost of care. I remember when my one insurance company tried to say that my speech therapy and voice surgery were "cosmetic". I remember when they blocked paying for my facial surgery. I remember the fight I had to get electrolysis. These procedures could save someone's life if the procedures help the individual successfully transition, and are no longer misgendered.

      I don't think it should be.  Nor do I see Project 2025 as pushing Christian nationalism.

      The agencies are supposed to work for him.  The problem, as conservatives found out in Trump 1, was they will ignore the president and do their own thing.  The agencies are supposed to be under his control.   Congress delegated some of its law making authority to the agencies, which is another problem.   The bloated federal government needs to be trimmed.  Dept Education is worthless - test scores have dropped since it was instituted in the Carter administration consistently, and it is currently implementing Biden's woke agenda more than doing anything else.

      I hope to eventually wear a suit for dance but don't know what exactly to look for. I feel like jumpsuit is safe option but I have been interested in wearing button up and formal pants. Is there a certain brand i should look for or sites I should look at for tips? My mom is not exactly keen on me wearing too masc clothing like suits just yet but is okay with jumpsuits. Also is there hair styling tips availible, my hair looks like image below. I might be able to get shorter haircut like pixie but am not sure yet.

      It’s never been about him, but he is the Presidential nominee for the Presidency that starts in…2025. I don’t see a lot of conflation that this is a “Trump doctrine”, it a doctrine that benefits him surely, but it is a plan to instill crony governance and enact very Christian conservative (if not purely Christian nationalist) “order” on the country. If you don’t see this as the Right doubling down on Big G government, I don’t know what to tell them. Getting rid of agencies and giving the authority directly to the Executive isn’t shrinking government. It’s consolidation power.

      It is the made up ideology they believe trans people are pushing on the world, those “poor young girls who are being coerced into believing they are men” and the “perverts who put on dresses and think they’re girls”. The anti-LGBTQ+ movement came up with the term. Being trans = you believe in trans ideology/transgenderism, supporting trans people = the same.   In the end anyone that acts on or thinks gender is anything but what is in your pants is a “transgenderist”, why not make it a word if it’s not, there is no real grey area. Unless you acknowledge there is transgenderism, but use your knowledge to “correct it”.  So I guess there could be transgenderist conversion “therapists”.  Face it, we deface the America they want. Land of the Free and Home of the Brave? I think being out and queer is pretty brave. And freedom shouldn’t just be for those who push a narrow “Christian ideology” as the “true” governing model.

      Rants are not a problem.  My favorite hobby! :)   What's out there is bad enough that I wonder why some people feel they need to embellish it.  Be alert.   Some of this will need to be fought in court if they try to implement it. If people are out to get me, paranoia is justified.  And this may not be the only document.   Abby
    • Ivy
      Not in so many words, therefore it's not there at all.  Excuse my paranoia. And the states passing laws against us are nothing to worry about either. Having to change my gender back to male (like in Florida) is reasonable.  I should just accept it, I mean I was born with a dk.  So that "F" is lie, and a fraud.  My delusions need to be dealt with for my own good.   I'm just frustrated these days.  Just a bit of a rant.

      You probably remember the Target PR fiasco.  I remember reading an account from a woman who shopped there.  She went into a stall and did her business, and someone came into the bathroom and began swinging stall doors open, and when she came to her stall, the woman peeked at her through the crack. "What are you doing?" "Checking for perverts." The writer was so stunned by the absurdity that she finished up ASAP and got out of there, while the other woman entered a stall and locked it, made sure it was locked, and locked it again.
