Thank you! It was a bit of a challenge making them but I just had to get them in there somehow

I don't know why I was expecting those roundabout dogs to be fancy bronze statues

I used to do some archery and loved it. I also remember I used to forget which eye I needed to keep open and my arrows went everywhere but the target... Good luck on your 252 goal!

Hahaha I've totally done the eye thing before! I was switching between them every few shots as well so it was like... why are half my arrows going one way and half going the other? Maybe I just need to buy an eyepatch

Basically just more Tomodachi Life nonsense. It's consuming all my free time, help

ugh that type of heat without AC is the worst. I checked out "I Can't Die Like That." Thanks for sharing, I'm into it.

Gave in and made a page for my dumb Tomodachi Life island. Please don't judge my selection of Miis. Or do, I guess, I'm not your boss.

@myrtletribe I thought about it, but I'm not sure the island's ready for the full force of Danny Dyer's Chocolate Homunculus

It's a very useful dataset! I was most surprised Statham didn't throw any punches in The Meg. Definitely thought he punched the big shark at least once.

I feel you on the TV. My husband has been watching The Diplomat while I play video games next to him and he made me google to see how many seasons Netflix had approved. Honey. Bby. They're all one season at a time. Who knows if your writers get to plan a real plot? We'll never know.

also, i loved reading about your thoughts on the opening paragraph to Moby Dick because they exactly mirror my own. i used to go on about how excellent that opening is to whoever would listen!

Ahhh thank you! I really enjoyed exploring your website and reading all your book reviews. I'm glad it's not just me getting worked up about how good that opening paragraph is, hahaha. Something about it just activates my inner lit professor every time.

Thank you very much! I dithered the images using ditherit.com, partly because I like the look but also because it usually reduces the file size and I like things to load quickly.
A little archery update. Also CMAT made me cry again
Lovely song, thank you for sharing
Archery seems soo cool! I'd always wanted to but I don't think I like compound bows
Never tried compound, I've only ever shot recurve! I would like to try longbow some day but I don't think I'm strong enough yet
