Saccharine Saturated Nightmare

No, we will not pick a new book for next month. We will not pick another book until Susan has been held accountable. Yes, we were about books, but it's important that books take a backseat to accountability sometimes. And that time is now.

Susan, I'm not sure you understand how difficult this is for us. Bearing the psychic violence you've inflicted on us is enough, but do you know how many hours we've spent on the dossier of your misdeeds? Do you know the emotional labor we've endured holding these criticism sessions? You're effectively gaslighting us when you continue to deny our accusations despite the clearly stated evidence in Cynthia's lovely dossier.

Susan, please don't defend yourself. Now is the time for you to listen. In fact - no, we will - in fact, let us declare that we will no longer be reading books in the Cozy Retreat Book Club. The time is not right for reading books. We will be reading justice. We will be reading hearts.

Now, you may say there are larger concerns in the world. This is true, but we cannot address the material harms of reality until we have addressed the material harms of Susan.

So may I present my own casting choice for Odysseus:

Absolutely not

You know who would try that shit?

Is this the face of a man who would defy the very gods to get home to his wife?

You know who would defy the gods just to show he could get away with it?

All from the Antique Pattern Library

This twisty one

This pleasantly-flourished simple one. it's quirky.

I have no clue how one would include backstitching in a font, but it would look so good

This Art Deco set, from a pamphlet where it shares space with both the most stunning animal illustrations you've ever seen and also the world's most baffling, hideous borders

This one has a lowercase set, too. In a modern context this reads more as a retro game font than a cross-stitch one.

these would look INSANE stitched. more of a monogram font than one for sentences, but who cares. I could figure out some lowercases and this would absolutely COOK

Love the weight of this one. Gothic, fun, but not large enough to be unwieldy.

The first twisty font is better, I think. but if I had infinite time I'd do this one too

A very respectable twist on a classic sampler font. could get a lot of mileage out of this one

hot take but I think with a good lowercase set this one would also be good for a lot of things-- party in the capitals, but keep the lowercase legible.

a very respectable font. you could file your taxes with this one.

their bulbous forms entrance me. I REALLY like that 'H'

Another set that really should only be for monograms... but some part of me wants to believe I could make a proper font around these

LOVE the 'A', like the others. really dig that the original artist included a lowercase set, too

Bonus Monograms I like:
