I also just finished Volume Two of Prophet and I love the world design immensely. It's really interesting to read Saga and Prophet concurrently. One is emotionally resonant, the other is purposefully distant. Both have brilliant world designs but for different reasons. Saga is fantastical, magical and beautiful.…

I just finished Volume 2 of Saga, which continues to amaze me..
And I am in the middle of A Visit from the Goon Squad, which is breathtakingly good. It is everything that Telegraph Avenue wanted so desperately to be. Chabon usually blows me away but Telegraph Avenue left me cold in a way only Mysteries of Pittsburgh…

Baz Luhrmann presents "Grapes!"

Advertisers, working their best to supplant lawyers, politicians and bankers as the shittiest people in America.

Benjen most likely ain't Coldhands. The children of the forest said that Coldhands died "a long time ago." And Bran would probably recognize his uncle.

I think Balon's death will be best served as an introduction to Euron.

Hahaha, oh Kram.

As someone who lives in San Francisco, I feel that I have enough firsthand experience to tell you that the Silicon Valley people are really fucking boring. Just utterly boring in every way. Really, really, really boring. More boring than this comment. And they have a ton of money! So it's boring people with lots of…

"Song Against Sex" wins my vote for turning its sexually desensitizing content into a bombastic anthem.

Moulin Rouge is the only thing on the planet to ever give me a migraine. I've never had one before or since.

I hadn't considered the Edric Storm/Buffalo Bills fan Venn Diagram until now.
Does this make Edric the Doug Flutie of Westeros?

There are Edric Storm fans? Am I forgetting the part where he does anything aside from just living?
