Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Has anyone seen SMG's latest project? [link]

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Nice! I just read "My Life as a Weapon" recently.

Wow, that breaks my heart. Such a talented guy. I used to trade tapes with him and Sarah back in the 90s when Emmett was little.

I never knew that Ta-Nehisi Coates was such a nerd.

Oh, yeah. He doesn't do it as often anymore, but he used to write a lot about comic books and playing D&D as a kid.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

But in a genre where death is malleable, I think it's easy to miss how well certain characters work while dead, how they exert a gravity on the main story.

I think this point is true and Jean Grey and Jason Todd exerted more influence and gravity to their respective universes when they were dead.
