Frazz (AMS) starts us off with a head-scratcher. I think the observation is right, but it comes from a direction I hadn’t explored, so it set me back a bit. There are those who object to fans using “we” at all, but that’s nonsense. Why bother having uniforms or selling gear if you don’t want […]
Carpe Diem (KFS) inadvertently captures my mood. Or perhaps I’m just not the only one who feels there is way too much doom in doom-scrolling these days.

Wadding up a piece of paper required getting it small enough to pass through the hoop, which meant […]
