My latest @theguardian.com books cartoon

A couple reading in bed. She holds a thick novel he holds something much slimmer.

Him "We must beware the tyranny of the long novel. Length is no barometer of literary merit."

He continues"I have scoured the bookstore, looked past the fat spines and sought out perfection in the miniature!"

He concludes "May not profundity dwell in the humble cottage As comfortably as in the sprawling castle?"

Her, without looking up from her book, "100% agree. But you're aware that's a greetings card, right?"

"I can't swim," from Andor is still stuck in my head. The way it contrasts with that monologue about sacrifice in the same episode.

Mechanics are more about how you do the thing, rules are the details. For example, fallout in the resistance system is a mechanic. Who rolls fallout and what divides small vs medium fallout are rules. I don't think it's a meaningful distinction. Other than we sell games by describing mechanics.

i made a helpful reference
top right: a fractured black rectangle where one half is labeled "autism is bad" and the other side is labeled "FACT CHECK: autistic people are productive members of society". 

top left:
WRONG
-negating their frame reinforces it
-starts with what it isn't instead of what it is
- your argument is shaped like their argument

bottom right: large image of Kirby, a pink blob inhaling and the "autism is bad" fragment, labeled THEY'RE DOING EUGENICS

bottom left: 
RIGHT
- you eat their frame
-starts with what's actually happening
-contains and explains what they're doing
-your argument is shaped like kirby

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents. I did it because the government isn’t. This is what I found.
White words on a black background read:

50+ 
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers. 

~20
Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

For the record, I tried Nuzzlock but it was too hard to track and took the fun out of the game for me. I think I might build an app to help me track which cards I lost.

My theological status is best described as "lazy agnostic," which is to say I am fairly certain that there is no god, but I'm not going to go out of my way to find out one way or another. If you're religious, cool, please don't use your religion as an excuse to be an asshole to other folks, thanks.

Also, here is a thought: I wonder how much "not feeling like an adult" is correlated with impostor syndrome.
