There’s a pretty interesting book about New Hampshire libertarians called “A Libertarian Walks into a Bear”. It’s about a libertarian utopia that was overrun by bears.

2·4 months agoI bounced off Perdido twice, then tore through The Scar then went on to read his whole back catalog. It’s my favorite of the Bas Lag “trilogy”.
I tried a number of them but never found one that felt right. I went back to the stock Pixel launcher. It’s far from perfect but I’m getting too old to tinker on features I’m not using anymore. I use the same 4 or 5 apps every day so it wasn’t worth the time investment.
Fucking passive voice as per usual - “the woman was struck”, not “the pig shot her in the back.”
I like a Canadian Old Fashioned.
Bourbon
Maple syrup
Angostura bitters
Ice
Orange peel if you have them
3·5 months agoI’m replaying the Arkham series and I’d forgotten that Ashley’s VA plays Oracle. I couldn’t figure out why I was getting annoyed every time she called Batman until I made that connection.
2·6 months agoThe Steam Deck only has a single USB-C port on it, so you would need the dock for USB-A ports. The good news is that the existing USB-C port is on the top of the Deck and the dock connects via a short cable. You can use the dock as a stand but it’s not required.
I’ve been champing at the bit for new Mieville fiction so I’ll take what I can get. My wife got me October for Christmas but I haven’t been in a non-fiction mood lately.
10·7 months agoComics will usually be published as individual issues. In the case of Invincible, it was 144 issues.
Then issues will be rolled up into trade paperbacks (sometimes called TPBs or trades). They usually follow a short story arc. Under the “collected editions” section of the Invincible wiki you can see it list which issues are in each of the 25 TPBs. Depending on which printing, it’s possible to get TPBs that group issues differently.
Then you’ll get Omnibuses or Omnis that bundle TPBs into a few giant books.
Maybe I’m just cynical but literally nothing surprised me in the book.

Nut jobs feeding bears? Check.
Nut jobs accused of sex crimes against children? Check.
