nothing, and I mean nothing, hits like reaching the seventh book in a romance series and you finally get to see the Super Mega Villain Guy (g/n), whom you've hated for a decade at this point, emotionally ruined by the power of love

even the high lifted and chivalric Crusaders of old times were not content to traverse two thousand miles of land to fight for their holy sepulchre, without committing burglaries, picking pockets, and gaining other pious perquisites

One of the real joys of researching a family that preserved its children's letters was hearing accounts of this child breaking his nose from the child himself and his two older sisters and his mother and two aunts. The cause? Tripping on the front step in his haste to get some raspberry pie.

Georgia is so much fun because the overseas absentee ballot form will say “submit electronically!” By which they mean print, fill out, sign, scan it, and then email it back to the county registrar except the email is on the website bounces

I love paying extra for 2-day delivery, which isn't actually 2-day delivery to Honolulu to begin with, only to have UPS fail to load the item on the truck for delivery. Want my vote? Run on a platform of giving consumers meaningful rights that companies can't "contract" away from us.

years ago me and Ms. Moreno talked about how this came together and it was the greatest www.newyorker.com/culture/cult...
“The contrast is outrageous! There’s this sex bomb in front, and this, this creature—I don’t know what else to call him—this fuzzy, violent, nasty creature in back who only got pleasure out of making people and other Muppets unhappy. A creature of impulse, let’s put it that way. And when I watch myself—’cause I’m usually so critical—but when I watch myself, I just laugh at me. What I love about it is that my character’s trying so hard to be sexy and sultry. And this horrible creature in back of me is acting up. [Laughter] See? I can’t stop laughing. It tickles me to death.

I have a piece in the NYT today arguing that the law should permit victims of ICE abuse to sue not just individual officers, but supervisors and policymakers like Stephen Miller and Gregory Bovino. A Democratic president and Congress could do this in 2029. And they could make it retroactive.

Happy Pvt. Marshall Sherman Day to all who celebrate
Private Marshall Sherman is a white man with dark mustache and a surprisingly modern face. He was a member of the 1st Minnesota and stands in front of the 28th Virginia battle flag in a black-and-white photo. He captured the flag on July 3, 1863, during the Battle of Gettysburg when the 1st had an 82% casualty rate and was outnumbered 5 to 1. In the photo, his arms are crossed and he looks satisfied and defiant. 

The state of Minnesota still has possession of the flag. The state of Virginia periodically asks for it back, to which the answer from Minnesota governors (DFL, Republican and Independent) is always basically "lol come and take it."

Today! My first novel in six years! Everybody's Perfect! Delany once titled a story "A Tale of Plagues and Carnivals." But what if more plague and more carnivals? What if Venice but less substantial? And more magical? With immigration and friendship? It's a bit weird but I hope you like it anyway.
Everybody's Perfect, artfully arranged on an antique map of Italy with part of my toy Venetian bookshelf and a cool pen that was a gift from Novacon when I was GoH in 2013. Photo, concept, and artful arrangement by my daughter Alex Walton, and the map is hers too.

In the better timeline, we've had another muppets remake of a classic movie every five years or so, and they're all classics. People fight over which is best: Muppet Count of Monte Cristo, with Kermit as Edmond Dantes and Eddie Redmayne as Albert, or Muppet Moby Dick, with Ian McShane as Ahab.
