Reviews

With admirable economy, the title Jetty announces two significant features of Talvikki Ansel's second book: the liminal vantage-point of the narrators of these poems and the curious ways in which the human world intersects with the natural.[3]

gollark: <@!312893288602533888> Editing a file with `z` in the name and other such random things.Also, you're always backdoored.
gollark: <@!235768051683950593> Opinions on this potatOS feature idea?Arbitrary Points. Applications grant Arbitrary Points for doing arbitrary things, and your Arbitrary Point total is stored on the computer. Arbitrary Points can be traded for absolutely nothing.
gollark: On the plus side, PotatOS can now "report this incident" just like sudo!
