JZ, let me know if you want fic recs. Fic is great for comfort reading.
Yes. Lucky for you, people may be in danger.

It says I joined Oct. 31, 2020...? Maybe that's just when we migrated to the new site? Or I'm a time traveler. I choose time traveler.
I've read a few good books this week. I wouldn't classify them all as comfort reads, but I really liked "Remarkably Bright Creatures" (some sadness, but a very satisfying ending, and one of the narrators is an octopus) and "Chemistry Lessons" (biting look at being a women chemist in the 50s and 60s; satisfying but trying at times - and one of the narrators is a dog). I'm currently reading "Thistlefoot" and really enjoying it so far.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think it must be the migration. Sorry to deny you as a time traveler! My takeaway is that most everyone who is still posting here has been posting for 22 years, and that is amazing!

Good to see you, Cindy!
Surgery no fun, but I did chuckle at your deranged knee.
Yo tambien.
A knee on a bender (as it were).

For anyone who likes T Kingfisher, I recently discovered she has a new book out, one in the charming children's/YA vein rather than the horror/horror adjacent one. It's called Illuminations, it has magical painting and a talking crow, and I recommend it wholeheartedly for anyone who wants a gentle yet enthralling escape.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'll bet Pix doesn't have to pin you down, squirt it in your mouth, and then give you treats to cover the cherry flavor.
