The Sunshine Protection Act is typical politics: a short-sighted solution to a complex problem.

If we, as a nation, stop using Daylight Savings, it will lead to increased Daylight Inflation. Yes, you'll have more daylight, BUT THAT DAYLIGHT WILL ACTUALLY BE WORTH LESS!!! Even worse, without any Daylight Savings Time to fall back on, the average American family will have less of a safety net in times of crisis, leaving them no choice but to start living on *borrowed* time, which is often, of necessity, obtained at usurious interest rates.

Earlier today, in a fit of charity-induced passion (and a fair amount of coffee) I made a wager with the folks on my twitch stream:

Here's the bet:

If folks raise $333,333 on my charity team page before I manage to kill the Ender Dragon, I'm going to do three things... 1. Share the prologue of Doors of Stone on my livestream.

2. Share a full chapter of Doors of Stone.

3. Share a third Temerant-related secret. Perhaps the opening pages of the comic we're doing for The Boy That Loved the Moon.

Hot Take: Spider-man doesn't actually have spidey sense.

What he's feeling is just generalized anxiety disorder and hyper vigilance brought about by Post Traumatic Stress.

#UnnecessaryHotTakes #RuiningEverything #WhyDoIThinkAboutThis The more I think of this, the more it makes sense.

In the versions of comic where he makes his own web shooters, he probably doesn't have ANY powers. He's he's just constantly experiencing hysterical strength due to constant stress-induced overproduction of adrenaline.

Christmas Story is not a good movie.

Beloved? Yes. Good? No. A few funny bits? Sure. But most of the humor is predicated on some really ugly cultural assumptions prevalent in a blessedly bygone age.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Wait, no they're not,
(What the hell's wrong with you?)
#ValentinesDay Roses are red,
Violets are violet,
Either is a better
love tale than twilit.
