John Ostrander is a better person than me because if I saw how thoroughly DC Comics tried to destroy my wife's last major creative work before she tragically died of breast cancer I would do something drastic

just spent an unsettling amount of money getting groceries so that I can make a bunch of meals that create leftovers and stop spending $10-15 a day getting lunch at fast food places. I am looking away from my bank balance. I pretend I do not see it..

"you don't have much of a Southern accent, though" vs. "that was the most Southern thing I've ever heard anyone say" are constantly fighting in the back parking lot of my life

On some level I feel a little uneasy when I take a picture that reminds me how big clouds are

This is already an extraordinary piece on the literature of Việt Nam in the New York Times, but this note especially blew me away—what a powerful argument against house style when it comes to foreign languages:
Note: The Vietnamese words in the original version of this essay used diacritical marks. To comply with New York Times style, the marks were removed before publication.

Unfortunately, this practice alters the meaning of the words. In the case of Hỏa Lò Prison, for example, “hỏa” means “fire,” and “lò” means “furnace”: the Burning Furnace Prison. Without the marks, “hoa” means “flowers,” and “lo” means “worry,” rendering the term “Hoa Lo” meaningless. I look forward to the day when The Times and other Western publications celebrate the richness and complexity of Vietnamese, and of all other languages, by showcasing them in their original formats.

As with everyone, I'm here to escape the ex-bird app. Probably won't be posting here a lot yet as I try to figure out what I want this new account to look like, but if you're a mutual of mine from somewhere else let me know and I'll follow you!
