Let's take a stab at some more classic scifi, the show I know best, The Twilight Zone! Favorite, not necessarily best, though I imagine there will be some overlap. (As a superfan I can say my favorite episode, A Game of Pool, is not always on the best lists.)

Some of you probably know this site but it was new to me. HeroMachine.com. Needs Flash; they're working on that, since Flash is gonna go bye-bye fairly soon, but the online version is free. You can buy a copy for Mac or PC pretty cheap too. This is Simoom. Simoom is a regional name for a very, very nasty desert wind...VERY hot, very dusty. That inspired his power set...a few different types of blast, can lock you into a sandstorm that's all in your head, can create a region of blowing dust that blocks all sight (but not his), desolid (but at full END so not for long). I think the visuals come out quite nicely; wanted a little different head gear, but that …

A while back I managed to actually finish one on my writing projects. I tried to get it published, without success, and earlier this year posted it online. Someone recently made me realize I hadn't posted a link here, so, here's Lucid. It's a YA superhero novel with a trans girl protagonist. Writing it is what made me finally realize/accept that I'm trans. I'm still trying to write more, so any feedback on what worked or didn't work would be helpful.

Pick a singer or band. Construct a playlist with one song from each album in order from earliest to most recent. Post the playlist without identifying the performer. The next player identifies the performer, then posts a list of their own. The main idea here is not to try to fool the other posters by posting obscure tracks by bands nobody's ever heard of, but to share music we really enjoy with each other. Who knows, you may even be inspired to take a playlist someone else posted and put it together on your own music delivery system of choice. Got it? Good. I'll start: Lonely Wind Lamplight Symphony Icarus (Borne o…

This came up at work yesterday. I used the word "bedclothes" in the description of a purchase. Someone who looks at these things had to ask what bedclothes were. What does that word mean to you? For the record, I've always used bedclothes for sheets and stuff.

Okay, so some of you may remember my 2017 work in the Napa Fire Complex. Coffee Park destroyed in Sonoma. Then in 2018 we had the Butte County fires that destroyed Paradise. Now we have us a global pandemic. And just to keep things interesting... Really 2020?! Seriously? Ugh. Here I go again.

For this month, we are going to set up to run an invasion story. Only this time instead of being opposed by humanity, it is up to the monsters to oppose the evil oppressors of Earthlings.

One Alien Three optional choices for weapons, other monsters, other aliens, particular humans …

Guys. If the Warriors win this year I think there will be suicides all over the nation. Who's your favorite? This could be the first time in a long while that neither team from the Championship series repeats. Both teams lost major contributors. The good teams got gooder? The bad teams stayed bad. Players have taken the helm and owners everywhere are perhaps pissing themselves. Are we excited?

Because you should be. For those who do not know . . . Holey Moley is a combination of really extreme mini-golf and Wipeout. The hosts are funny, the holes are insane, it is just plain fun to watch.
