Thursday the 20th.

You better believe.

We hope you've ironed your black t-shirt, found your favorite beanie, polished your golden chain. Every day for the last god knows how long, your alarm has blared you awake, you've prised your sticky eyes open, rolled out of bed, sat there staring into space for around 15 minutes, drawn back the curtains, and checked your Antonio Banderas calendar. And it was always a crushing disappointment, to compound the ordeal of waking up—sometimes, it was the 20th. Sometimes it was Thursday. From time to time it was Wednesday the 19th, or Friday the 21st, but it was never quite the money shot. Only today things are a little different—you will have completed the aforementioned morning routine and checked your calender—only today, It's Business Time. It's #thursday the 20th. Praise be! 

What makes today all the more remarkable is that its coming was foretold in an episode of The Simpsons, no less, that show with the uncanny ability to predict world events long before they actually happen. Smartwatches? The horse meat scandal? The three-eyed fish? The censoring of Michelangelo's David? Lady Gaga's Superbowl Performance? Facetime? Trump's election? The pandemic itself??

Admittedly, some of these are a little easier to vouch for than others, but it is indisputable that today's materialization of Thursday the 20th is more than a little spooky. Don't believe us? See for yourself. Sometimes, all that can be said is that the universe works in mysterious ways.

However you're spending your big day, make it count. It's only #thursday the 20th once in a blue moon, after all, but it always goes down smooth. And for some reason, unbeknownst to us, like a whisper in the breeze, today has got us thinking of another Simpsons coincidence. But perhaps some mysteries are best left unsolved.

"The serpent is the earthly essence of man of which he is not conscious. Its character changes according to peoples and lands, since it is the mystery that flows to him from the nourishing earth-mother. The earthly (numen loci) separates forethinking and pleasure in man, but not in itself. The serpent has the weight of the earth in itself but also its changeability and germination from which everything that becomes emerges." ~Carl Jung, The Red Book

Batman Wayne Family Adventures Vol 5 by CRC Payne & Starbite

5/5

This post is for Fan entertainment, I’m not being paid.

Hey Everyone,

I hope you are well.

Yay! I got the volume of Wayne Family Adventures! I always look forward to reading this series, it’s so wholesome and funny. It’s a nice break from some other books I do read now a days. This issue seems to be heavy on the emotions across the board.

Which again, is why I like this series so much. That each of the Bat-family members get their own little spotlight shine on them so its not so focus on one person (i.e. Batman).

One thing I do need to brush up on is Duke, I haven’t read any of the comics that he came into the picture. This series is the first thing I have read about Duke, and the more I read this series I pretty much got the idea of his story, again another tragic story for such a young person to deal with.

 This volume has some major emotions coming from Jason, Stephaine, Luke Fox, Damian. I thought this was really well done in how they dealt with their emotions.

However, this volume has some of the funniest chapters I have read. Roy Harper’s daughter played both Jason & Dick like a kazoo. So, a carnival around and Roy, Lian, Jason and Dick are there to have fun. However, Jason is now in a contest with Dick is who is the favorite. So, all day they are trying to best each other winning prizes and getting carnival food.

My favorite chapter was one the last one, Damian overheard a very stressed-out Bruce and taking the words that he overhears tells Duke, Tim and Stephanie. So, doing some sleuthing they find very obtuse notes in the Bat computer, they find the location and things don’t go to well, but the ending was cute.

I can’t wait to get Vol 6, but it might be a while since looking up the chapter where vol 5 ends is where we are currently at now. With the Joker Arc, it might be a while before we get vol 6, but I believe this series is worth waiting for.
