Bones in the Ocean hurts me in ways that it has no business doing so.

I've never suffered a loss of any great magnitude. I've never even been to sea, though I desperately wish I had been.

Oh, damn. I really liked this series of books.

I can't imagine it will make a good tv show. So much of it was the narrator talking to himself.

That's the silent one by HPLHS, isn't it?

They did a talkey version of Whisperer in the Dark, and it was pretty damn good. I love their Dark Adventure Radio Theater, too.

That last line took it from dark humor to inappropriate, in my opinion.

Some people just process these things better by forcing themselves to put them into words. Journals, for some people are not written to be read, but to be written.

I was like they in high school. Wrote out my thoughts. Lose-leaf paper in my binder with me other school stuff, so they didn't survive more than a few months. But the writing was the point. No-one was ever going to read them, not even me.

Maybe cook the other side in another pan?

if you have legitimate concerns about the government coming after you, you simply do not keep a diary. At all. Not even one where you promise not to write anything incriminating.

So the people upset about the wrongdoing can be punished, but the people who wrongdid are not able to be punished?

Fascinating.

I've seen it a lot in astrophotography, but there they have a reason to remap the colors.
