I have never heard of a ptarmigon before, and if someone had described what it looked and sounded like I would have thought they were pulling my leg or describing a funny local cryptid. Knowing that this funny little bird with the angry red eyebrows that makes croaky "oh wow" sounds exists adds that much more brightness to my life

My 29 and a quarter ass liked it *because* its corny, cheesy, ridiculous, and goofy. Its the Looney Tunes, *thats* what I paid for 🥰

A quick look at the comics confirms that the $800 stipend was indeed the original number, and maybe that would have been a large, if not decent amount in the 80s, its chump change in this capitalist hellscape we have in the New 20s
My only real complaint with S1 so far (I haven't finished the season yet) is that Jed's foster father's motive is the $800 a month.
That's not even enough to live on. I seriously doubt Cape Kennedy's cost of living is so low that this stipend is worth it. (Especially if you look at the standard of living the foster parents have. I mean, the phone's probably as old as they are.)
This is the most unrealistic motive I've ever heard of.
If you're going to make greed a character's motive, at least make it enough money to be worthwhile.

Jason dons this uniform anytime a) a fellow counselor or camper says anything even vaguely homo- or transphobic b) as a sign of solidarity any time a lady counselor gets catcalled or shamed for their choice of uniform c) whenever its particular hot out and he feels daring.
Was watching Sleepaway Camp earlier, and I had to replicate those lovely early 80s outfits.
I love the thought that in two, maybe three hundred years when the Internet, Neil Gaiman, and Larry Welz are a distant hazy memory, The Innkeeper's Soul will be told with the same folktale reverence around fires as Stingy Jack O'Lantern and the darker versions of Grimm's Fairy Tales: an amusing fable about the power of human love trumping the petty squabbles of Heaven and Hell
I don't expect this one to get answered, but a friend who I recently introduced your work to asked, and I was curious:
Have you ever dabbled in writing erotica, or possibly better termed, smut? Maybe under a pseudonym?
Given the wide breadth of topics you've written about, and given that most artists of any type tend to dabble at least a little, I would guess that the answer is yes, just curious if any of it ever got published anywhere?
Thank you for your time, good sir. I've been a fan almost as long as you've been writing. Still looking for a copy of The First Four Years of the Fab Five for less than a billion dollars, and looking for a replacement for my stolen (and signed, in person, long ago) copy of Don't Panic.
There's a story called "Tastings" in Smoke and Mirrors, and a few bits of American Gods, but that's all I can think of so far.
Your assumption is infinitely funnier than me typing up a 4k word essay on why that expression is apropos for the man who pulled the queen mother of political long cons to *become* Emperor Palpatine
This is the funnest expression ever pulled in all of starwars history
