The Living Library is a kind of digital garden, a type of personal knowledge management system like a common place book, and an experiment in coming back to life.

It is not a blog. Not many writings and posts will be polished before being published. Rather, it is a collection of ideas, topics, and concepts that will continually be edited as they grow and find new connections.

Who am I?

I am Solstice, or Sol, for short. A nonbinary Filipino chemical engineer and witch. I also go by Silver (shortened to Sil), or, very rarely, Eclipse.

Between learning about and making concoctions, paying attention to culture, politics, and religion, and looking at plants and hazardous materials, I like to play puzzle and crafting games, enjoy all sorts of literature, craft, create and appreciate art, and experience and learn anything that catches my interest.

Where else am I found?

• inked-in-earlgrey: A new account without the baggage of teenaged me. Mostly just a collection of pretty pictures at this point.
• Aesthetic Sideblogs
  • a-pyrophilous-heart: Fire and burning and hunger and rage. Storms, ragged brush strokes, the chipped edge of the blade.
  • intothesilverdawn: OC vibes sideblog that spiraled into its own thing.
