Fancy!

We Could Be Heroes -- Mike Chen Kyle just reviewed this above. He's right: it's a solid pulpy super-hero action novel that is made for grown ups and deals with realistic grown-up characters. Like Kyle, I was surprised and thrilled that that the author didn't turn this into a love story. If anything...

Do right.

Or 12:12 even.

I can take 3.

12deed!

I bid 1.

Bedt12e!

The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle -- Stuart Turton This came highly recommended and the blurb that caught my attention told me it was a Victorian murder mystery with a time loop, so that the protagonist repeats the day 8 times trying to find the killer. I'm sold already. But it's way better tha...

I'm act12lly enjoy12g the ent12e twe12e th12g. I know 12's rid12ulous, but 12 en12rta12s me. Plus, w12hout an unk12lab12 thread, the re12 of 12e s12e 12ems to d12. 12 a12 12 f12k12.

Time and distance? I got nothing to help on this one. I have the same sort of opinion on and experience with hate that you do. It's people who, if I think of them, I can viscerally feel the hate, and if aim not careful, I can find myself spinning elaborate fantasies about things I could do or say th...

I play Card 4 to start my stack.

When last we left our heroes, the next steps were as follows: 1. Phoebe sends Eliahad her new card order (otherwise Kyle has the information that her #2 is not a skull) 2. Kyle declares which of Phoebe's cards will be discarded. 3. Then Phoebe plays a card to her stack and play resumes. I'm eager to...

F12E IN THE HOLE!

I 12 the sandbox.

Good morning!

Can you clarify that question?

Hello! My name is In12o Montoya. You k12led my father. Prepare to d12.

I think this is the first time I've done this on a Daily Sedec-Order...

Yeah. This is solid

You keep using that word. I do not think it 12 what you think it 12.

I love the movie 12 Monkeys.

Ill play Card #3 from my hand.

The truth? You 12n't handle the truth!

Badges? We don't need no 12ing badges!

Yes yes, I've seen your resume and it is very impressive, but I must impress upon you that my research is of an extremely sensitive nature. As such, I require an assistan12ersed in this facility's security protocols. Are you that person?

I choose Card 4 from my hand.

Nope. I'm here in plenty of time.

Some day when I have more energy and time, I will try to relate my full experience with Scouting's new Citizenship in Society badge. For now, here's the quick version: It is intended to promote understanding and empathy and tolerance and diversity. As written, it's a good idea, and I broadly support...

Yippee ki-yay, motherfu12er!

What sort of setting/story would you want to play? How would we play? Do we each have individual characters or do we share control of the party? And I don't mind contributing, but I don't want to actually have to put entries into the AI and come back with responses. Will someone be responsible for c...

I'm in regardless.

Game on.

There was a package on my neighbor's porch that sat there all weekend. He didn't answer the door or his phone. Called the cops for a wellness check Monday night. Turns out he had been dead for a month according to how much mail was piled up. He was a bit of a recluse and we weren't close to him, but...

We Could Be Heroes - Mike Chen. Aw man, I know there's probably not a huge market for it, but you know what genre we need more books in? Superhero stories for adults! I freaking love these books, and I freaking loved this book in particular. Let me be clear-- this novel is not creating anything gro...

Dozenth!

Sea of Tranquility -- Emily St. John Mandel
Emily St. John Mandel is a fantastic writer. Sea of Tranquility is a lovely little time travel story. Spread over five or six centuries, we follow time agent Roberts as he investigates a time anomaly. It's good. I liked it.

Alright, playtime's over. You don't have to go home, but you can't post here.

[Congrats Kyle!]

Before the Coffee Gets Cold -- Toshikazu Kawaguchi This premise kicks ass! There's a teeny tiny basement cafe hidden somewhere in Tokyo. If you sit in the right chair and they pour you a cup of coffee, you can travel in time. But there's all these rules, including: you can't leave the chair, nothin...

But for real guys. Barbiturate Armadillo is refusing to talk to me and now I found out that Adderall Sloth- you know the guy that lives one block up and two over from me- is out of town for the next two weeks. Anyone know anyone that I can talk to for a quick pick-me-up? https://i.ibb.co/mTG7b6Z/b2...

Also, didn't none of us have a problem when they did this same thing to eliminate Seuss's racist stuff? I honestly don't remember this, and it's making me worry about my mind. The only thing that comes up is when people like Ted Cruz were mad for some reason and reading Dr Seuss on the floor of Con...

If you're having trouble getting everything done in the limited time you have, my bear recommends cocaine.

It's morning!

Sorrowland -- Rivers Solomon Vern is a pregnant teen escaping from a religious black separatist cult. At the time of her escape, she is 13(?), Black, pregnant with twins, intersex, suffering from albinism, queer, and... I don't know... I'm sure I missed something. We follow Vern through the next se...

Bears... On cocoaine? It'll never sell! Look, I know I'm not explaining it well. Let me see if I can come up with an analogy that makes it clear: Imagine a bear. Now imagine that the bear is doing cocaine. Lots and lots of cocaine. Imagine that this murderous mountain of tooth and claw would go to ...

You lose me at the point where people who disagree with you on matters of taste are inferior people. But Cocaine Bear... holy crap this was fun! It is a bit slow in the beginning as they build characters and put all the pieces in motion, but then it's a bear!... and it's on cocaine! This movie is ab...
