Me, out in the shed August 31 vs me out in the shed September 1

I'm seeing one minor problem with the Nordspace launch that they might want to fix...

Did Trump just announce new tariffs on Canada with Triple H?

Is he going to Pedigree the economy? Next week maybe he'll announce military funding with Rambo.

You know it's serious when an NL story beats those Coldplay kiss cam cheaters.

Evacuees are arriving at the Steele Memorial Centre in Gander.

Hosting CBC's On the Go in 15 minutes!

It's the thrifting episode! We've got second hand clothes at MUN's new thrift shop, second hand vacations in our tech column, and a second hand show, as I got this episode cheap from Krissy Holmes.

Rewatching Returns, I can't really forgive it for only giving Routh Chris Reeve's dialogue word for word instead of letting him make it his own.

Me: Goes to see #Superman on Joe Shuster's birthday.

@jamesgunn.bsky.social and the unbelievable cast of this movie:

This because @taskmaster.tv S19 was perfect and so is Fatiah.

Morgan Le Fey and Mordred speak in blank verse.

They're part of the world, but aren't playing Arthur's game.

Merlin, however, speaks roughly in iambic hexameter (six beats), because he's one step ahead of them.

Dactylic hexameter is the Homeric metre, from the Odyssey and the Iliad, WAY pre-dating Arthur legends, so it suggests he's older or wiser then the others as well.

The Arthurian kids all speak in classic Shakespearean iambic pentameter (five beats), but only to each other.

No one else around them not connected to the Arthur legend does, or is paying attention to them when they do.

My chapter of is called The Avalon, and imagines Arthurian characters as '90s St. John's mallrats, with the Avalon peninsula standing in for the mythical fairy-full island.

I wanted to use their language to help skew the reality and characterize them as well.

Here's some bonus director's commentary, to celebrate being half way to our goal for Town: St. John's in comics!
