If bibliomysteries are mysteries based around books/bookstores/libraries, than what would mysteries based around Biblical things be called?

On revision day, do you decide you hate revision and love drafting?

This must be some of that irony I’ve heard about…

Is Ollie a bigger dweeb than Larry Lance?

It appears to be completely made up. Hegseth’s presser was only a half hour and this exchange is not on the video or the AP transcript.

Doesn’t even look like Dondi. Looks more like Steven Universe.

Kirby Krackle sounds like a good name for a breakfast cereal.

Wasn’t Legend of Kamui one of the very first translated manga published in the US (along with Area 88 and Mai the Psychic Girl) back in the 80s? Eclipse Comics published it, but I think Viz did the translation/localization work.

Not chess, but the titular character in Yasunori Kawabata’s “The Master of Go” was also a keen shogi player (including variants) and would play shogi to unwind during downtime at go tournaments.

Careful! If more publishers included clear concise instructions for set up and rules, fewer people would need to watch instructional videos to figures out how to play games.

I’m reading “The Poison Squad” by @deborahb.bsky.social and am getting a good sense of what life was like in the good ol’ days before regulations…

I knew it started then and it was still running when I last lived in Japan in 2003, but I had no idea it was still running 20 years after that. Makes The Simpsons seem like a short-timer.

It’s STILL running?

Some people need to recalibrate their sarcasm detectors. Granted, it’s increasingly difficult to tell sarcastic posts from regular one.

If you’re going to throw full English breakfast components at people, why not keep the 🍅 and throw the black pudding?

Almost all of our winter tomatoes are imported from Mexico, so they’ll soon be expensive, too.

Social media has ruined my ability to detect non-verbal sarcasm…

They also only want ballots from the four bluest NC counties tossed. There are about 25,000 more ballots that meet the same criteria, but they are from red counties, so there is no effort to eliminate them.
