Good, you're all here! I... or actually, we... have an announcement:

Marcel and I are getting married!!

He wasn't talking about "the break"; he meant "you're as bad as Ross" as "entitled misogynist homophobe."

Eliahad... what did I tell you about spreading your germs around? Now I'M sick.

This sucks.

Wow, Kate Bush charts in 2022 because of Stranger Things. That's solid.

Good post, Tahlvin!

Good night, Post.

The Shining Girls -- Lauren Beukes A time traveling serial killer stalks young women across the decades of Chicago. The one girl who survived his attack is now hunting for him. Awesome premise. Great writing and cool time travel that is amazingly consistent and logical. But Jesus are there some bad...

Good night, Moon Zappa.

Your grandparents didn't grow up in a society that glorified all aspects of gun culture as signs of true patriotism.

Get better, Eli.

And stop getting your germs all over. I don't wanna get sick this time around.

No ticket!

I can feel it in your thighs.

I can see it in your eyes.

I appreciate all the effort you put in, Kyle.

This was my main reason for putting up a new Unkillable thread. Thank you, Pete.

A Dead Djinn in Cairo -- P. Djeli Clarke This is the second tale I've read from Clarke in this world. A magical awakening centered in Cairo in the mid-eighteenth century put an end to British imperialism and saw the rise in power and influence of Muslim nations. Our heroes are cops who specialize i...

Wow. No coffee for Kyle. Good job, Tahlvin!

No no... I merely explained that posting's for closers. Kyle's the one who promised coffee for posters.

Nothing -- Janne Teller Wow. Go read Kyle's review... it's just two posts up. I was reading this book within 10 minutes of finishing his review. He's dead on. And it's pretty odd, but then something happens and you say, "Oh shit. That's... wow." Then something else happens and you're like...

Good morning!

A Prayer for the Crown-Shy -- Becky Chambers This is a Monk & Robot book. It's the sequel to A Psalm for the Wild-Built. It is friendly and happy and glorious. Go read both of them in order. They are each under four hours. They do not have a recognizable western literature style plot or story a...

Good night.

Captain Taggart has saved us!

Getting ready for a productive day!

Good evening!

Good morning. Mike, please give Kyle our best and let him know we're all worried about the state of his balls. Turns out Kyle got sicker for a while, but says that his second antibiotics finally kicked in and he is on the mend. His fever broke and he says he's at about 80% now. I'll ask about the b...

I'll call Kyle in the morning.

My parents live across the street, and they report that they can no longer see Kyle's distended, elephantine scrotum through his front window. So possibly he is better, or else has just moved to his sick room. I asked them to go check on him, but they refuse, because they claim Kyle is so mean to th...

Here and Now and Then -- Mike Chen Time travel! Yay! Kin is a timecop who stops criminals from altering the timeline. He gets stranded in the 1990's and is stuck for almost 20 years. Now Kin has to reconcile his two lives, and that's what redeems this story and keeps it from being a dumb timecop st...

I love her voice.

Last night, I got to play a card game called The Crew. It has a pretty pointless space theme, but no one cares, because the mechanics and game play are awesome. It's a cooperative trick taking game. There's basic goals, like one person is required to take the yellow 2 or the blue 5 or whatever. But ...

Good luck, Balls!

Acceptable!!

Today shall be a glorious day for Kyle's balls!

That is SOOOOOOO tempting! Curse you!

It is indeed!

Children of Ruin -- Adrian Tchaikovsky This is the sequel to Children of Time, which I LOVED! The third book, Children of Memory has yet to be released, but I will eagerly xonaume that as well, because Tchaikovsky is so freaking good at this! And for the second time this year already, I get to read...

First speech meet of the year this weekend, with only a week of prep time since vacation. Noah was very rough and way over time for both his events, BUT he got HUGE laughs... especially for the entertainment speech that he had to write himself. In the second round he worked in a bunch of new edits a...

Three cheers for Kyle's balls!

Pizza!

You kiss your mother with that mouth?!

Good day!

Good morning!

I already talked about the original, but this version was the first time I ever heard of the Mountain Goats. Okay, that's not strictly true but let it rest. No please! I would love to hear the story. I can well imagine that I've heard of them before or that I've heard one of their songs either from...
