In the comments to these weekly posts (and only these posts), it's your chance to go as off topic as you like.

Talk about non-comics stuff, thread derail, and just generally chat among yourselves.

The intent of these posts is to chat and have some fun and, sure, vent a little as required. Reasoned debate is fine, as always, but if you have to ask if something is going over the line, think carefully before posting please.

Normal board rules about conduct and behaviour still apply, of course.

It's been suggested that, if discussing spoilers for recent media events, it might be advisable to consider using the rot13 method to prevent other members seeing spoilers in passing.

The world situation is the world situation. If you're following the news, you know it as much as I do, if you're not, then there are better sources than scans_daily. But please, no doomscrolling, for your own sake.

There are about a half dozen, deeply concerning, US political points I could make on healthcare and vaccines alone (to pick a subject at random), but I suspect you don't me to raise them.

British bargain-bin-Trump-wannabe Farage, appeared in front of a committee in the US Congress, it did not go well for him, though it has to be noted that the UK media did not cover the excoriation bit much, which is a shame.

Those missing Star Trek Prodigy may (or may not) be consoled at knowing there is a new animated Trek in town, albeit one with a rather different target audience, "Star Trek Scouts" . I can't wait for TrekCultures "Ups and Downs" on THIS one! :)

And this weekend JemCon seemed like a good time to release the new synthwave re-recording of "Glitter and Gold"

A new LEGO Batman video game from Traveller's Tales is coming!!

Last Month

Last month was very weird and stressful. It started with a very nice bang--I got Time Capsule recorded, mixed, and up on Bandcamp. (And yes, getting the album done was stressful, albeit in a good way). Then I started hanging some of my "extra" tomato plants in pots outside, giving them the sun they need to thrive even though I'm out of sunny places to put them into the ground. I plan to do this earlier next year.

I had planned for the next few days (or more) to be for relaxing, since I predicted (correctly) that as soon as I let the hyperfocus on recording go, my brain would be pretty useless due to the long covid. Instead of being able to do that, the very next day there was a very different bang.

My partner, who was visiting Michigan, was in a car accident, and she called to tell me my car was not driveable. I had to figure out how to rescue her even though the rental places and my insurance company were closed, and then deal with all the insurance and rental foo-frah.

Happily, my partner was fine, physically (though a wreck emotionally). We went in to her doctor anyway, to talk about her health and meds and whether she should continue to be driving. In the meantime, I'm doing all the driving, until the various tests the docs recommended have been completed and evaluated. That's frustrating too, since driving uses up time and requires a significant amount emotional and mental focus.

They initially guessed, since the air bags did not go off, that I would get my car back once repairs were completed. Sadly, I got the word that my car was totaled on my birthday, which was decidedly not the birthday present I'd hoped for.

So then I had to deal with getting a new car in what felt like a huge hurry, unless, of course, I wanted to start paying for my rental car myself. (The contract gives me a week from notification.) Ugh.

I settled on a used car both to get more space (the formerly brand-new car was smaller than the previous one, which was already less space than I ideally wanted) and to get a lower price, but with the current state of things, was told my interest rates would be higher, so my car payments will also be higher. That was not what I wanted to hear!

The new-to-me car is silver, which is not one of my least favorite car colors--but is also not the purple or bright blue I prefer. So I ordered some purple decals, which I'll talk about in a separate post.

I'm becoming convinced that emotional stress is just as big a stressor for the long covid, at least the version I'm dealing with, as intense or prolonged mental exertion. In short, I feel like I lost a whole month of creativity to fatigue and brain fog, instead of the few days to a week (or two) I'd expected.

However, I'm still here, still making music, and still planning the next fiction project. Wish me luck!

I haven't posted recs here for a while, other than links to posts elsewhere. I've been busy adding fics to my fic database and finally finished a fandom post or two, and decided I might as well post a few recs here specifically.

I won't post every fic I added - you can poke through my master recs post to find the posts they're in - but I thought it might be a good idea to post any fic that I either consider a favorite (i.e. I love re-reading it) or exceptionally well-written (something about it stands out to me as outstanding writing in some way).

Explanation of ratings )

Below are the recs:

If any of the links above no longer work, please let me know so I can flag them as "Dead" in my database, thanks!

Enjoy! :)

The cover for JUSTICE LEAGUE #2 isn't nearly as iconic as the #1 cover, but it spells out the central conflict clearly enough.



Who the heck are these guys flying in to electrozap our heroes? Don't they care that Guy's spent an hour getting his hair just so? Well, they're basically the Avengers, but NOT.

Not shown: the un-Shazammed Billy Batson falling out of frame and muttering, 'I hate it when this happens.' )
