Why’d that be strange? House Atreides claims to descend from King Atreus, the father of Agamemnon, as in the guy from Homer’s Iliad. Idaho is a fair bit newer than that. 

This is a good article, but it doesn’t answer the most pressing question: how is it possible for a space opera set in the far distant future to have a character whose name is Duncan Idaho?

Dexter should be nowhere near this list. The Good Place deserves to be higher.

She threw enough shade to combat climate warming.

I saw some people this morning guiltily admitting that they hadn’t liked Hatchet when they read it in school. For me it was the exact opposite; I loved reading but most of what was assigned in middle school I just rolled through without much reaction; I was reading ahead of grade level and the stuff I had to write…

He’s getting rich by performing for the same people who would happily call him the N-word if he stopped the act for even a second.
