The Netflix series Sex Education is all about a wide variety of characters' wellbeing and mental health. Even antagonistic "bad" characters tend to have hidden depths and nuance. As a show it was also surprisingly gentle with its characters, rather than just constantly beating them up for drama's sake.

Not sure why folks here are so down on Pocket. I've used it on a daily basis since it was called Read It Later, long before the Mozilla acquisition. It's a handy way to hang on to links temporarily, when bookmarking is overkill and I don't want to have a million browser tabs open.

Very often I spot something on Mastodon (or pre-Musk Twitter) or one of my Discord servers and want to come back to it later. Maybe I'm on my iPhone and the site is something that would be better on my PC monitor. Maybe it's a YouTube video and I'm someplace where I can't play sound. Pocket does the job.

Several of the Commander Cody serials can be seen in early episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000.

A Short Hike is a very charming game that's included in the sale. If you've picked up one of the bigger charity bundles on itch.io in the last couple years you may already own it.

I like Iroshizuku ink a lot. I have a bottle of Shinkai ("Deep Sea") that's a nice blue-gray (more gray than blue, though).

I, too, recommend Jinhao pens. I have a Jinhao 75 and it is an absolute pleasure to write with, I like it even more than my US$50-70 fountain pens.

I reviewed the Free Comic Book Day issue of Titan Comics’ new Conan the Barbarian series! The creative team has me excited and optimistic about this relaunch.

At a minimum, I'd want to be able to unrealistically change direction in mid-air.

I'd like to be able to double jump, platform video game-style. Mostly pointless in daily life, but imagine how good it would feel?

Kobold Press' monsters are fun and original. Just be aware that they hit at their listed Challenge Rating, while many of the first party WotC monsters are easier/less effective in combat than their listed CR.

You might know Stephen King's It from the novel, the 1990 miniseries, or the recent movie adaptations - but have you seen Woh?
