If youāre a fan of Jim Butcherās work I can highly recommend his Codex Alera series. I like it even more than his Dresden stuff. Pure fantasy, not urban fantasy. First book currently on sale $2.99 (Apple Books link but I assume other places too)

FWIW, when I was tracking Trumpist conspiracy theories in 2020 (for my own interest) medbeds were a big deal in that world. Like, āTrump must win so I can recover from my cancer when he gives us all the medbeds Obama is hording.ā These tweets and hints arenāt accidents. Itās a qanon presidency.

Tesla Bros Attempt Coast-to-Coast Trip in Self-Driving Mode, Crash Right Away
Thereās an aura of failure lingering around Elon Musk and the Tesla brand right now. A stink of mediocrity. Maybe even the funk of impotence.

It's truly amazing how completely and totally feckless Democratic leadership is at a time when the GOP is malicious, incompetent and incredibly dangerous. There is a moment here that needs meeting and no one in Dem leadership who seems to have any interest in even trying to meet it.

I firmly believe there should be at least 3 Supreme Court impeachments as soon as feasibly possible, AND the Supreme Court should be at least doubled in size AND mandatory retirement at 70. I believe only the last one requires a constitutional amendment.
