Critical Role fic idea I will probably never write: Percy, Vex, and Vesper are kidnapped/taken hostage for political reasons/captured for revenge by Vecna cultists/etc when Vesper is around 10-12 years old. Percy gets to have lots of emotional angst over trying to protect everyone while dealing with the potential of watching his family get hurt or killed again, but from the other side of the coin (as a husband and father rather than as a son and brother) this time

penelope didn't have to turn the tree bed into a riddle. she could have asked odysseus to prove his identity, to tell her something only he would know — which she actually did a few books earlier, when she asked the beggar to describe odysseus, and odysseus told her about a purple cloak with a particular golden brooch that she fastened herself twenty years ago. when penelope tells telemachus they have signs by which they'll know each other, you sort of expect more of the same. and instead, she decides to trap him. like a bug in a cup.

and it's delightful to me, idk, how odysseus has been trapped and cornered in various way throughout the odyssey, but arguably never so that he has to tell the truth to get out. (with the phaeacians, maybe? the omniscient narrator corroborates some of what he tells them, but do we really know everything?) and in fact he is not trying to get free of penelope. he wants something from her, wants to convince her, wants to be welcomed home, but until this point he's lied to her, revealed himself to other people before her, and been distant with her (though also patient! he doesn't try to strongarm or rush her into accepting him; it's his idea to sleep elsewhere).

except penelope isn't looking for him to be distant and patient. penelope lies in a way that requires odysseus to stop playing along — not only to prove that he knows what odysseus knows, but that he's willing to tell the truth about himself.

Saw some of this on BlueSky, but in case anyone needs it: CDC recommended immunization schedules, Wayback Machine-archived from 2024.

Birth to 6 Years Old

7 to 18 Years Old

Adulthood

Don't rely on Internet Archive either, download these as PDFs (you can do that from the "print" link on the archived page).

If you're a parent, tell your doctor that you want these vaccines on this schedule for your child, even if/when the CDC changes their recommendations.

If you're an adult, or soon to be, and believe you may have missed any of these vaccines as a child, talk to your doctor about accessing your vaccination record and getting caught up. Many (most?) states also have an online vaccination record lookup.

you vs. the posters she told you not to worry about

saying that The Last Jedi had "some of the best theatrical posters in Star Wars marketing history" is hilarious because TLJ didn't even have the best posters of the sequel trilogy much less posters that could outshine the prequels' historic poster run
