I got caught in the rain. Now all my books are wet in the corners. The pages will be fine, but it will leave a dark spot from the water.
Has anyone successfully remove this watermarks?

>Some fans were surprised that a dark-skinned, Swaziland-born Noma Dumezweni was cast as Hermione, sparking fervent online discussion.
>In response, Rowling said that Hermione's skin was never specified as having been white.
Is this /pol/, /tv/ or /lit/ related? Posting here because a script will be published.

She's a complete sell out now, isn't she, /lit/? Or is she pressured from some tumbl black lives matter 420 swj's?
Either way, it's a play, and plays have been retarded since cinema was invented.

Before anyone jumps at the chance to say I'm the one who wants to do it, please forget it.

I've been writing a book with super hero elements and in the climax one of the characters will attempt to kill the main hero (something like superman). I had originally written this ending to be done with a gun designed by the main character, but I feel this will no longer work out how I envisioned, so I need a new method and I'm going with poison. Problem is I don't have any details on how to make poisons, and I'm trying to figure out the steps to make something like ricin, or something of a similar potency. I know most peoples first reaction when people ask questions like this but I don't have a death wish. The character in the story who makes it is a sort of mad scientist so he will have access to most science equipment.

tl;dr
Step by step guide for a mad scientist to make ricin or similarly powerful poison to kill a superhero.

so what's going on in the last chapter of vineland?

are we seeing Hector's film, as directed by Frenesi with a wish fulfillment happy ending?
are we seeing Prarie's dream, the one she wakes from at the very end?
are we seeing some kind of Thanatoid afterlife, Zoyd having been killed in his armed standoff with CAMP?
was the ending rushed out to meet a deadline?
or is the ending just unapologetically Holywood?

something else?

>It was two in the morning when she called. Her voice sounded strange and distant, as if she were turned away from the mouthpiece.

>“What’s the matter?” he said angrily. “Where are you? Why did you leave the baby alone?”

>“I’m...in a phone booth,” she said. She giggled.

>“Why did you leave Billy alone?”

>“I’m not...alone,” Sally giggled. “We’re in here together.”

>“Who? Who?”

>“Me...and this big, black nigger.” Jack heard a distant muttering, and Sally’s voice saying, “Why not call you that? That’s what you are. That’s what I wanted. A big...black... nigger.”

>“What the hell’s going on!” Jack yelled.

>“We’re in this phone booth,” Sally giggled, her voice suddenly loud, intimate, her mouth pressed up against the instrument. “We’re sort of, well, fucking in here.”

>Jack hung up the telephone very quietly. He thought about the man with Sally, who probably did not care whether Sally was “using” him or not as long as he got what he wanted. Try as he might, Jack could not hate or even dislike the man. But when Sally showed up several hours later, alone, he was waiting for her. He had most of her clothes packed into her set of matched luggage.

The artist allows themselves to get “dreamed up” by the field to become the “medium” through which the spirit of the age moves and inspires them to creatively express itself. Speaking about this process, Jung said, “At such moments we are no longer individuals, but the race; the voice of all mankind resounds in us.” The artist is an open, receptive instrument through which a living creative spirit gives shape to and reveals itself. In this process, the artist becomes an ongoing revelation to themselves, while at the same time their art is a revelation of the creative spirit to the world. Their art is both a manifestation of, as well as a gateway through which we become introduced to the creative spirit which lives within all of us.
