We're halfway through January already and I don't do resolutions. But @alasdairstuart.com only published the first #FullLid of the year on Friday, with a wee re-statement of its entirely sincere and enthusiastic mission to make us aware of cool stuff. Consider it a weekly Power-Up.

Something a little different. Some cartoonists put out a call for comics about local ICE experiences. This one happened a few months ago so it's a little older than current events, but it's a story that I never stopped thinking about. #ICEoutcomics

While I understand the urge in the UK to get rid of US military bases because of Tr*mp, it's only a short hop to ppl in the street being aggressive to anyone sounding American. Hi. I'm British. I'm not a US citizen. But my accent doesn't reflect my passport. How long until I'm attacked for it?

We are drowning😭
We implore you to donate and support us so we can buy a tent that costs $100⛺️

Back when everything had 12 or 24 episodes a season, the sixth script broadcast was usually the one where you could see the show figuring out what it was. I wonder what the number is for our present hellscape.

The news about people losing their eyes to less lethal rounds is a good time to remind people to buy goggles if you are going to a protest. Look for ones with an impact-resistant rating of ANSI Z87+ High-velocity impact rating or ANSI Z87.1+ High-velocity impact rating. Ideally, rubber not foam seal

So quick question - what's the best site to get pretty much a list of all music releases daily? Allmusic I find tend to leave a lot out and Album Of The Year's good but sporadic.

This is great - very enthused by the interdisciplinary theme, and the architecture focus of this ep is right up my street.

I especially enjoyed the proposal that the big question of High-Rise is “why don’t they just leave?” I think we can all relate.
We promised we'd be back... season 3 begins with an episode on the connection between Architecture and Speculative Fiction and features an interview with the fabulous Amy Brookes. You can listen here on Spotify or wherever you get your pods:

Brilliant to see the BBC picking up Ranald Lawrence and Dean Hawkes' fabulously interesting and important #environmentalhumanities work on #HardwickHall. They measured solar gain to understand Elizabethan comfort tech.
The original articles are hugely worth reading too.

Third chapter of Dispatch went so much better the second time through! Fourth chapter? So bad! So I’ll go through that again.

It's absolutely no joke the amount of stuff about game design I learned by getting really into fighting games. There's even a cross-game, cross-era glossary of terms. Made by players. DESIGNERS in TTRPGs can't even agree and come up with such a resource. We got much to learn.

I’ve been sat on this embargo since November and I am utterly thrilled to finally report that THE BONE TEMPLE whips, slaps, and fucks. It is timely, necessary, and metal AF. Good luck to anyone who has to come after Nia DaCosta this year.

Reached Childhood’s End in the Essential Judge Anderson and while it’s taken some knocks (not the least of which is the How Many Times Can We Show Her Ass counter) it holds up much better than Shamballa or Satan, the stories that bookend it.
