I know kaleidoscopes used to be big, but now there’s an app for that. Wait, is there actually an app for that? … Yes, several, although a lot of them seem to be for drawing your own symmetric patterns or filtering your photos into symmetric patterns.

Went to the office, did a work, ate a Korean BBQ sandwich.

Read: Kingdom of Ruses (Kate Stradling): A kingdom founded on lies, a handsome young man who Remington-Steeles himself into the lies, annoying younger brothers, a well of magic, het romance, political intrigue, mysteries. Sadly very heteronormative, but cute.

Read: Lucy, Uncensored (Mel Hammond, Teghan Hammond): Not heteronormative at all. A trans senior girl tries to find a college drama program that isn’t terrible, despite cis guys and transphobic school boards and unsupportive parents and her best friend’s poor dietary choices and dodgy dog.

Read: Throw Away the Suit Together vol 1-2 (Keyyang): Also not heteronormative. A lesbian couple in their last year of college give up on the Tokyo rat race and run away to an island to live in a borrowed family beach house. Sadly a dilapidated house is not enough to survive on, so they have to deal with people and capitalism and everything. I’m not sure if it’s exactly slice-of-life, because that usually doesn’t include so much upheaval, but it’s close. And cute.
