back then i made a bunch of these but by now i lost the pic and dont know how to find the original post anymore

so anyway here is the diagram for anyone else who is interested!!

this requires pretty big carboard pieces, if you have a really big box or something you can make it from one piece, but if you don't, you can also just make each of the pieces individually and then tape them together

and then in the end you put it together like this!!

and then when you make a bunch you can put them all next to each other and stack your books like crazy

Choose a song title for each letter of your username and tag the same number of people

Thank you for tagging me @desert-fern! 💖

Fair warning: half of my picks are from the 90s because that was my formative era. I like stuff I can sing to or play the guitar to, so there’s a lot of rock and pop…

Drop Dead Gorgeous [1997] – Republica Just a Girl [1995] – No Doubt A Thousand Years [2011] – Christina Perri Ready Now [2019] – Dodie Iris [1998] – Goo Goo Dolls November Rain [1992] – Guns N’ Roses Speechless [2009] – Lady Gaga - Creep [1992] – Radiohead You Could Make a Killing [1995] – Aimee Mann All Along the Watchtower [1968] – Jimi Hendrix Rumour Has It [2011] – Adele Empire State of Mind (Part II) Broken Down [2010] – Alicia Keys

Now for the usual totally unnecessary commentary on my choices:

We’ve got four British artists on there (well, I did grow up here), but it’s mostly stuff from across the pond. That said, ‘Empire State of Mind (Part II) Broken Down’ was never released in the US, but it was over here, and it was huge (hence it’s on my Spotify master playlist!).

There are songs from four soundtracks (Scream, Twilight, City of Angels and Cruel Intentions), proving that movies make my brain remember songs better.

Also, I’m currently rewatching Battlestar Galactica, so I had to include Hendrix 😎.

Hmm, who to tag... okay, 12 of my loveliest moots coming up:

I Do Not have that many people to tag

[Joey, on the act of creating] "It doesn't matter if it's good, it matters that it happened"

[Madeleine, on which minor deities they said they would be when they first started discussing the Solkats] "I said I was the goddess of muddy hems on long dresses. I think you said you'd be the god of... the moment ice clinks-" [Joey] "-at the bottom of a whisky glass"

[Joey, on finding the will to return to a hometown that didn't treat him well] "I'm different now, what have you got for me?"

Sorry for the delay, I know I promised I’d post more of the videos I got soon… I’ve just been so jet-lagged I’ve been focused on settling back into work and acting like I’m normal and didn’t experience a genuinely life changing event.

Here’s a snippet from the first song of the night, A Drinking Song for the Socially Anxious. They really know their audience ☺️

My favorite memories of the performance are moments like these, that were so uniquely TAD, so intrinsically tied to THIS audience, THIS time and THIS place, that they are truly irreplicable. The way we were all right there with Joey and Madeleine, were feeling their lyrics so deeply and with such love we couldn’t help but spontaneously start to sing along? Magic.

I’ll be making an effort to post more of my favorite clips of the performance in the coming days. The videos I got aren’t the best (I was fighting tooth and nail with my phone’s focus the entire time, ugh), especially when compared to some of the really awesome videos other fans have shared, but I’d still love to offer what I’ve got!

I do have audio recording of the book interview at the start, as well as longer videos (and these shorter ones not absolutely fucking mangled by Tumblr’s compression, if anyone has tips on how to deal with this I’d love to know). If people are interested I’d be happy to put together a Google Drive to share. Just let me know!!

Oh, but had the artisan who made me created me instead – a worthy woman... ...I would say "how lucky am I"

Father in heaven who did miracles for our ancestors with fire and water... ...Who would then transform me from a man to woman? Were I only to have merited this being so graced by goodness...

What shall I say? why cry or be bitter? If my father in heaven has decreed upon me and has maimed me with an immutable deformity then I do not wish to remove it. the sorrow of the impossible is a human pain that nothing will cure and for which no comfort can be found. So, I will bear and suffer until I die and wither in the ground. Since I have learned from our tradition that we bless both, the good and the bitter I will bless in a voice hushed and weak: blessed are you [HaShem] who has not made me a woman.
