Stars and Stripes trilogy by Harry Harrison has John Ericson designing Civil War era tanks. The books are absolutely terrible, though.

BBC America hired Grace Helbig to be part of a promotion for their original show Almost Royal. She was pretty funny in it.
But Hillary knows how to get things done, right?
Glad Aces of the Deep got a mention. It was one of my first ever video games as a kid.
I remember back in 2009, when Hillary was saying that she wasn’t going to run again, there was a lot of talk that O’Malley was going to be the inevitable 2016 nominee... whoops!
Loom and Curse need to be much higher up.
I feel like setting this in some fake authoritarian regime was a mistake. It would have had more impact if it was about a newspaper in a democracy going along with the wishes of the government and investors, to show how even in “free society” information is managed and controlled.

This reminds me of Psychonauts.
The idea that Bernie Sanders was some unknown candidate who had no momentum or recognition at all until last week is so laughably ludicrous.
A few years ago, I heard Art Spiegelman give a talk, and he mentioned how he and Charles Schulz met each other, and even though Schulz didn’t quite get Spiegelman’s work, they both respected each other and had an in-depth talk. Nothing really to add to this, just liked the thought of those two artists meeting.
