I've been posting here for over half a decade and it just occurred to me to bookmark Interstellar.
I also wanted to talk about bookmarks in general.
Physical book marks, though.
I think bookmarks are incredibly hot.
People say bookmarks are for quitters, but I say bookmarks are for people who know how to chillax.
They can come in different forms. They can be cloth, denim, ribbon, leather, paper, cardstock, wood.
They can be soft, flexible, hard, stiff, rubbery, malleable, smooth af, so on.
Not only do bookmarks save your place in a book, but they can have stuff printed on them. It can be sexy, funny,
weird, traditional. It can be text, images, or text with images. It can have a little story on it.
Bookmarks can set a mood.

Tarot card decks usually come with a few extra promo cards which feature the card back artwork on them, and I always keep those to use as bookmarks.

I can't do math.
It's exactly 7 years old and the forum would be 4.5 years or so.
That's a decent amount of time, I've definitely tried my best to talk some shit and make some art.

Back in high school, if you were working with law enforcement or a school detective (why is that not a thing), and they said "good job, Deva; I think we can close the book on this case", you could break out that bookmark and say "Think again, fool."
