Blog Roundup (June 15, 2025)

I really liked almost all of Jim Bishop's "Lost Letters" ... but then REALLY did not like the ending. On as island of fish people, a human boy goes looking for a long-awaited letter from his mom, reluctantly helped by a teen girl with way too many problems of her own. 💙📚 #comics #bookreview

nervous to go to protests? Don’t be. They will be peaceful family affairs. Go with a group, peel off if anything makes you nervous, don’t stay to the bitter end. This moment calls for all Americans to express their rights. And when some cannot, it’s important for others to stand in their place.

Updated my blog for readability, ready for the next article soon; a much belayed one on motherships combat. [Theres like 3 others coming too, i have adhd okay] The biggest takeway here is i want to see more people discuss interaction and tactility in ttrpgs, something i find very underdiscussed.

Dealing with law enforcement can be stressful, so it’s important to know your rights before you’re face-to-face with ICE agents. While there’s never any guarantee that law enforcement officers will follow the law, here’s what they can and can’t legally do to you and what you can legally demand. ⤵️

When ordering the posts for each season, I try to place posts so that they'll be in conversation with one another. This little Duology on Darkness is perhaps my favorite of the season. First, "Advanced Darkness" by @knightattheopera.bsky.social‬

I’m loving this fae family for the hearts court cards.

"The Shadow of the Torturer" is the first book in Gene Wolfe's quartet, "The Book of the New Sun." We follow Severian in his last years as an apprentice to the Torturer's Guild and his first days as a journeyman executioner. Severian is unexpectedly naive, and in danger for it. 💙📚🪐 #bookreview
