This is how you know that it's not about the money. Because if it were, then libraries would not keep being defunded.

Happy Life Day!

Also, on this day in 1983, Marvel Comics editor Jim Shooter asked staffer Bob Budiansky to name a bunch of robot toys for an upcoming tie in comic.

Over the next few days, the Transformers were born.

My son is obsessed with General Grievous, one Star Wars character I’ve always been ambivalent about.

The other day he asked if George Washington could defeat Grievous in hand to hand combat.

As someone who literally celebrates Ben Burtt’s birthday, I can’t endorse this enough! We need a hashtag to make this happen!
In January, Blast Points will be celebrating our 10 year anniversary. Putting it into the universe that our dream is to have this King on. We’ll talk to him about literally anything.

Update: He dressed as Luke for Halloween. He even got to fight a “Sith” lady giving out candy at a house who had a red lightsabe.
All is going according to plan. My 8 yo and I watched the original trilogy a couple of weeks ago and now he’s getting obsessed with the Clone Wars cartoon.

My son is doing a Star Wars fan comic he titled “Lord of the Jedi Gods”, which I’m sorry, is the most awesome title ever.
