I've been trying to bring back Capes and Cloaks for some time. And its finally coming back but in the high fashion part of things. Lupita's red dress with the cape had me freaking out. I was so happy.

Here in the strange news story capitol of the US its like to be Summer for another 4-5 months.

Alas I understand that pain. I want to replace a lot of my parts with mechanical parts.

The social commentary and non-zombie parts were some of my favorite parts of the book so this is interesting.

Brown skin person here. Gotta say I've always been baffled by the tanning thing.

Laverne! I swooned a bit

TV remotes and my Video game controllers. Hmm perhaps they changed the design once they realized how good they were.

no problem. Its not a spoiler. I just loved the concept of them that much.

I could have been the pioneer of this... if only I wasnt so repressed and shook in 99.

Finally. The earlier hours are unholy evil.

I understand you. My thinking, cynical as it is, is that if we wait while trying to fix these problems we will never make it to other bigger needs. A lot the troubles you mentioned are a result of our consumer society. Corrupt corps and greed will have us trapped in that stuff forever.

Reading about the Terrariums in 2312 made me weep uncontrollably like a baby.

Use rechargeable AA or AAAs. I've been charging the same 8 batteries for what seems like a decade now.

Can I get a Jacket like that? I mean I not apposed to the dress if that was the only way I could get it.

To me, I think we have to get out of the gravity well. Period.

(I was of course referring to the old EU canon. Dark Empire etc.)

Well isn't it down to the old discussion of Art.

Hmmm keeping the Clone Emperor part of the old canon?

I like it kinda. I think she should have had bandages around her chest like the Samuria do in Anime. Would have been next level!
