The Y-wing is a workhorse starfighter has been in use since the Clone Wars. Used for dogfights and for bombing runs against capital ships and ground targets, Y-wings are often overshadowed by newer models such as the X-wing and the A-wing. But the Y-wing's historical importance is remarkable, and it has reliably served multiple generations of star pilots.

You know, they could’ve avoided crossing those pick-off lines on the bottom...
I see them. Y-wings, heavy shields and turret guns.

We’re going with a tasteful dash of dolphins for this Sci-Fi Dolphin Sunday: Here’s a Colin Hay piece centering on a weather-worn building (a Hay specialty). It’s a 1978 UK cover to Perry Rhodan #37, ‘Epidemic Center: Aralon,’ and was in Steven Caldwell’s 1979 art collection 'Star Quest,’ too.
Also, an update on Sci-Fi Dolphin Saturday: Sometimes it’ll be on Sunday this year. I’m too busy marketing my art collection! Which you should preorder, btw! Check it out here

Okay. This is a good take on this, from a guy who has had the motivation and time to think about it!
This is a link to a post on my blog (sidebar: this thing you are reading now is not a blog. It is a Tumblr thingy. My blog is a blog. Thank you.) that is kind of about Wesley Crusher, but is also about some other stuff.

Hi! A bookstore cashier from Latvia here. Just wanted to share that today a teen girl with a relative came in and asked for suggestions for her book club, and I suggested your Neverwhere and she was like, oooh! The relative asked if she had read it and she was like no, but I follow him on Tumblr. The choked nose I made. I wish she hadn't worn zip up boots so I could ask about her shoelaces. Thank you for unexpected smiles and glimmers of connection in unexpected places, across generations.
It never occurred to me that you needed to be wearing shoelaces for someone to tell you that they liked them.
