One horrific game you should definitely not play is ranking them in order of likelihood. Because once you've crossed off Brown and May, the mental images start getting really bad

Just realised how FUCKING FURIOUS I am at the latest Gaiman communique. His choices were all his own. He is now facing the consequences of the harm that he did of his own free will, and that didn't have to do. He chose to hurt those women because he thought he could get away with it...

I don't know why anyone is taken aback at the Vances bringing food to Milan. We all know that if they tried to eat out, that restaurant could auction off the right to spit in their osso buco.
Not only did they bring a small private army, but among the waste of taxpayer money was BRINGING A FULL PLANE OF FOOD.
To *Italy*.

Alright, where are my gifted kids at? You were smart and you never had to study and then you went to college and suddenly had to learn a new skillset overnight, that everybody else had years to learn, or flame out spectacularly?
That’s what talent is like.
That’s what talent is like.
In my experience, talent is a *detriment* to learning.
I didn't have to practice early on so I *didn't know how*. I didn't start to learn how to practice until my 30s! (When much of my life was taken up with parenting, so I didn't have time!)
I didn't start to improve as a musician until my 40s!

I'm going to say this again in case you haven't heard this one: I was a talented writer and it did *nothing whatsoever* because I hadn't put in the work, and I put in the work for ten years (subtracting the bit where I had to quit for my mental health) to write Witchmark
talent alone could *never*

A statement on the connection between certain scientists and a known criminal is coming soon. I and my colleagues have a zero tolerance policy on this. It extends to enablers and those apparently ok to vacillate on these issues.

Once again, there's nothing wrong with *ebikes*. Fatbikes are essentially stealth motorbikes for which you don't need a helmet, licence or insurance. Seriously, watch the knees of somebody riding a fatbike—it's obvious that they're not powering the damn thing at all.

You know, having touched my university founder’s collection of books—
It was sure a lot easier to be a “polymath genius” back when everything you needed to know was like music, a guess at chemistry, superstition, religion, and which plants will kill you if you eat them.
