see my idea is that on July 14 KNHC should celebrate by playing Daft Punk, Talamasca etc and all their station announcements can be that they’re “Seattle’s home for France”

Baharroth, Phoenix Lord of the Swooping Hawks, is 40K’s version of Papageno.

restarted this book on Egyptian boats and again Egypt is fucking OLD. Mycenaeans went from being hugely Minoan to whatever ended that (Thera?) to great palace cities and eventually Dorians showing up, all well within the New Kingdom. The Spring and Autumn Period is about half the Late New Kingdom.

re: Anyway, I recently watched the Secret of NIMH 

@ziphi Have you seen the Mouseguard comics? They were kinda neat.

and this is our dangling chains and moisture room. It's next to our creepy empty space helmet room. And over here's the walk-in fridge, please don't mind how it sounds like someone blowing a shofar, it's been broken that way the last decade.

has anyone ever mashed up "I Can't Stand Losing You" with "Spirits in the Material World"

I mean of course I think that what would really push it to sheer genius is sampling Lovely Feyd Rautha declaring "I will kill him" probably after the line "your brother's gonna kill me and he's 6'10"

I don't know what gender *that* is but I think I want to be it.

Okay so the answer to “have my folks not contacted me because their land line went down?” is “power lines are down enough around here I drove real careful to get under the one down next to their house.”

Left a note to say I’d checked in and hope they’re okay, and now I get to poke around here some.

@Kusimanse "FOIA" that's when you make pate by feeding geese right?

re: Mentions sexuality. Gender stuff. 

@obscurestar Yeah, exactly in this case.

I was riffing off how I think a lot of transphobia is *literally* conservatism; trans folk are seen as dodging a kinda shitty game which we don't necessarily like, but which we all do because that's what we've always done (and if we're doing it, then clearly it has to be morally good and something we can't possibly challenge, right?). Real southern way of viewing the world, right?

So that got me thinking about how I was treated sort of as a girl (for being bad at sports, reading, etc) while simultaneously being required to be a boy (and stuff you could stereotype as boy stuff like climbing everything, cycling anywhere I could get to, actually being cranky, etc instead got dismissed) and having girlhood off limits (partly because girls are "supposed to be" pretty and even tempered and I was repeatedly told I was this ugly, out of control monster).

And I mean that's a huge realization, wherever I'm going gender wise that's pretty vital to have, but that doesn't tell me where I'm headed next, if that makes sense.

Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradisio were written by Alphonso Dante, who also innovated a method of cooking pasta.

the sudden realization that "Death Korps of Krieg" has the same scansion as "Karma Police."
