Some musicians gain a huge respect thanks to their work behind the scenes to move then. Jimmy Webb, for instance, penned a lot of classics, so he did get a chance to make something on his own. However, I would claim his latest records look a bit too much into his past. Then again, what a past he had! A good case of that would be how he and Glen Campbell made many great songs, including one I consider to be one of the best pop tunes, so the fact the latter duetted with him on one of the latter's latest? This does make sense, though I still have this feeling these LPs Webb releases now find him in a retrospective mode. One understand that, this is what happened to most of his peers, but one still wishes to hear what currently troubles him.

Authors Convinced Fanfic is Illegal/Requires Permission

Terry Goodkind: “Copyright law dictates that in order for me to protect my copyright, when I find such things, I must go out and hire lawyers to threaten these people to make them stop, and to sue them if they don’t.”

John Scalzi: “Let's remember one fundamental thing about fanfic: Almost all of it is entirely illegal to begin with. It's the wild and wanton misappropriation of copyrighted material”

Diana Gabaldon: “OK, my position on fan-fic is pretty clear: I think it’s immoral, I know it’s illegal, and it makes me want to barf whenever I’ve inadvertently encountered some of it involving my characters.”

Robin Hobb: “Fan fiction is like any other form of identity theft. It injures the name of the party whose identity is stolen.”

Anne Rice: “I do not allow fan fiction. The characters are copyrighted. It upsets me terribly to even think about fan fiction with my characters. I advise my readers to write your own original stories with your own characters. It is absolutely essential that you respect my wishes.”

Anne McCaffrey: “there can be no adventure/stories set on Pern at all!!!!! That's infringing on my copyright and can bear heavy penalties…indiscriminate usage of our characters, worlds, and concepts on a 'public' media like electronic mail constitute copyright infringement AND, which many fans disregard, is ACTIONABLE!”

Chelsea Quinn Yarbro: “No. Absolutely not. It is also against federal law.”

Lynn Flewelling: “Whether you are writing about Seregil or Fox Mulder or Sherlock Holmes, if you do not have legal permission from the author, their estate, or publisher, then you are violating US copyright law. It is creative piracy. Doesn't matter how many disclaimers you put on, or if you're being paid. It. Is. Illegal.”

This scene with Kitty Pryde & Wolverine might very well be one of the best ways to convince kids to not smoke!

Lol! Same energy as that one Calvin & Hobbes strip:

From Uncanny X-Men (1963) #196 by Chris Claremont & John Romita Jr.

If I had a nickel for every time an adult fantasy novel featured a bastard from a very cold land and a mother he never knew, with a huge heritage that could twist the story, having a magic taboo link with a wolf, fighting off fantasy zombies-like, and a kind of morally ambiguous character who grew up in a hot land, descending from an almost ethereal kind with white hair, skin and weird eyes who actively works to make dragons come back while having cryptic weird prophecy-like dreams, and a feral boyish little girl traumatised by the loss of her familial figures, who was protected by a wolf, had to survive alone and became a killer as protagonists, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

1968 Mirage M2

1968 Mirage M2

1968 Mirage M2

The Mirage M2, featuring an aluminum monocoque with fiberglass bodywork, was constructed in 1968 by John Wyer for the 1969 WSC. Sponsored by Gulf Oil, powered by a BRM Formula One 3-liter V-12 engine developing approximately 370 hp, it is configured as raced in the 1969 Nurburgring 1000 km with the original two-valve heads and Lucas mechanical injection mated to a ZF five-speed transaxle. Tested by Ickx and Oliver and raced by David Hobbs and Mike Hailwood, with a seventh-place finish at Spa, it is significant because of its position in the history of the WSC. Of the three M2 chassis, only '03' is fitted with the original two-valve engine making its significance even more evident. A rare, seldom-seen example of John Wyer Automotive's innovative engineering design and execution, the BRM Mirage is exotic and beautiful by any automotive enthusiast's standards.

nothing... just Fast & Furious franchise collecting the big guys like the infinity stones.

[unch4rted-territ0ry]

I have found a way to connect two completely different fandoms together!

Call of Duty and Fast and Furious, specially the Hobbs and Shaw movie.

Okay, listen, right.

MI6. In F&F H&S it's mentioned bc it's literally a big part of the story line, but in CoD MW remastered, it's mentioned in the Countdown mission in the 3 game.

So....my idea would be having a agent of MI6 kind of appear in both story lines, and connect it in one big mission with TF141 along with mystery character, Hobbs and Shaw? Oh, and Soap doesn't die bc we love him💕

the "Draw your two comfort characters together" thing

After watching both Hannibal and all of the Saw movies I can say that these two women deserved so much better. They were both in such vulnerable situations, ones where they needed love and care and all they got was abuse and manipulation. Of course they're not completely innocent, but if they actually got the help they needed instead of being thrust into a world of violence, because they think that it protects them, then maybe their lives would have been different.

And I think it's very easy to dismiss these two as deranged murders, complicit in violence on the first viewing, but deep down both of these women truly care about others. Amanda, killing Adam because she doesn't want him to suffer, and Abigail, being haunted by the girls because she feels immense guilt. I mean, when she's with her dad hunting, she says how deer are similar to a 4 year old human being, how they tread carefully not to step on the plants, she humanises an animal because she cares. And as stated before, they're no saints (especially Amanda), but they're not cold hearted killers.

Oh, and fatal neck wound in front of the only person they trusted, left to bleed out with no one that truly knew or loved them

They're so scared in those moments because all that fighting for survival meant nothing in the end. I think Amanda sums both of their characters up perfectly:

John needed more help with his games, Hannibal needed to get closer to Will. They were used and then discarded.

Btw, to my Fantasy High/Dimension 20 mutuals

If you're interested in another ttrpg actual play where the main group has the exact same vibes as the Bad Kids, check out Protean City Comics

Literally the main group is the exact same as the Bad Kids, but if they were in a superhero setting instead of fantasy

Also it uses Masks: A New Generation instead of DnD 5e

John: My watch tells the time, the day, and the date. It doesn't tell me what month it is though. I need a watch that tells me the month.

Xander: I suppose they figure if you don't know what month it is, you're not the type who'd wear a watch.
