I also want to say because I'm not seeing this pointed out, that a terrorist attack on a Jewish holiday *in Australia* also has the effect of making Jews in other countries where it starts later - meaning most countries - second-guess their participation in public events.

Not going to get into specifics because I don't want to get into a discussion of the actual story but seeing a comic story tossed off as "Well it's fun and good and all but doesn't matter to continuity so you should just skip it" hurts me in my god-damned bones. Fun! Good! That means "Read it!"

If you've never read the @marthawells.com Murderbot stories... OH MY GOD YOU'VE GOT TO READ THEM. I'm making my way through the three volume Murderbot Diaries editions and they're fantastic. Maybe the first sci fi I've torn through this eagerly since I was a kid.

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

Yeah it is cool when billionaires fund struggling public health outposts but you know what’s cooler? Them not existing and us funding them on the regular without them having to go begging constantly.

Jesse Hamm had the take to end all takes on children's media. "People who disdain writing ‘just for children’ fail to realize that those children will remember what they read, maybe for the rest of their lives. You’re not writing for permanent children; you’re getting an early start on adults.”

Love how this could be about any one of several ongoing crises/scandals.
i think a (perhaps underappreciated) aspect of this whole situation is the extent to which every elite profession is filled with people who excel at drawing attention and want to be famous more than they want to do the actual job

Looking for an *L.A. based* artist who (against all odds) has time for a poster gig before the end of the year.
It's for a science + art event.
We can offer $500 for the gig.
Dreadfully sorry about the timeline. Link a portfolio if you're interested, I'll delete this post when we found someone.
