if there's a reason to keep up the "tribunals for all involved" discourse one such reason it is to put in stark relief how far away some of the Dem politicking is from the mood on the ground
eric swalwell said on msnow that a major goal of a dem majority after the midterms would be for ice masks to come off and badges to come out, this is insufficient

That’s the most Chris Achilleos that ship has ever looked to me!
Ron Cobb said that the special effects department got sick of waiting for a decision on the Nostromo and they just went in to the studio and grabbed drawings. The picture they used had the ship coloured yellow, so that's what they did.

It was resprayed but it would have been interesting.

Being $5 more seems like a huge mistake on Marvel's part. And yeah, some wonky initial choices.

The TPB format (especially this new small form factor) has always been built for DC over Marvel. Most of DC's iconic stories are completely stand alone, often set in alternate universes devoid of any continuity issues.

Marvels are almost all in continuity storylines, with no real conclusion.
Now Marvel has gotten in on it, slightly bigger, $5 more expensive... and even fewer that interest me.

I am really becoming enamored with the DC Compact format -- smaller editions of complete stories, $10 a pop. As you can see, I've bought 4 of them so far, 2 Alan Moores, 2 Morrison/Quitelys. If there's any criticism, it's they don't have enough I'm interested in.

My ever-fluctuating weight, blood sugar and insulin retention has swung in the way of this old thing fitting me again. Perfect timing too. #NorthLondonDerby #COYG

It's Doctor Who's 62nd anniversary, and despite doing a special set for it on the air Thursday, I'm not even sure I *like* Doctor Who anymore (in its current form).

ICE’s Detention Center outside Chicago was sued on October 30 for allegedly abusing detainees. One day later, a "system crash" lost all video footage that could have shown how detainees were being treated. trib.al/QwT3aqI

RIP Gary "Mani" Mounfield. Bassist for the Stone Roses and later Primal Scream. The bassline to "I Wanna Be Adored" is simply exquisite. Far too young at 63.
