"That’s how the madness of the world tries to colonize you: from the outside in, forcing you to live in its reality." -- #southernreachtrilogy by #jeffvandermeer. Have you ever read #thesouthernreachtrilogy books? Annihilation is the first book, and was made into a film. Then Authority, and last is Acceptance. They are weird. Like... WEIRD. The strangest books I've ever read. Also left one of the most lasting marks on me. They are a must, for strange + unusual types, for deep thinker types, for the ones who lay awake at night wondering about layers of weird things in life. Weird. So weird. I cannot recommend them enough. Lol. 🖤 And this quote is just such a favorite. You can find them usually really cheap on BookOutlet - I have a link in my bio. I'm a nerd and addicted to books and when you use my link I earn points to fuel my habit. And speaking of shopping -- I bought this beanie thinking ok cool, cute slouchy fall hat. My kid who is now a much-cooler-than-me tweenager in middle school says, "oh cool, you look like a lesbian now," like I was headed out to meet my barista girlfriend for coffee at a hipster bookstore. I wasn't even mad about it and I'm not sure if she's wrong? I'm very pro-gay I'm just also.. not gay. Lol. So, thoughts on the hat? Now I feel awkward in it.
