What I Just Finished Reading
Nothing. But not because I'm not trying! I just didn't finish in time!
What I'm Reading Now
No comics yet, but I am in the middle of reading Network Effect (the new Murderbot novel by Martha Wells, which just came out the other day) and it is, as you might expect, really good. My favorite line so far:
I feel you, Murderbot.
Also, for the purposes of fic research (and also, y'know, the general importance of knowing queer history), I have finally gotten a chance to read Allan Bérubé's Coming Out Under Fire: The History of Gay Men and Women in World War II, which you can currently read/download for free at Project MUSE here because they are making a lot of their stuff free to read during the pandemic. Apparently the WWII armed forces were much, much gayer than I had previously suspected.

"Just remember that you're not alone here."
I never know what to say to that. I am actually alone in my head, and that's where 90 plus percent of my problems are.
I feel you, Murderbot.

So if you happen to be in a fandom owned by Disney (say, uh, Star Wars or Marvel), you might be interested to know that Disney is getting in on the fabric face mask action and releasing officially licensed masks (in several different sizes so we can all wear them, not just children) of the usual Disney characters as well as a Pixar set, a Star Wars set and a Marvel set.
The Marvel set has a Marvel logo pattern, a Black Panther pattern, an Avengers team pattern (I personally think this one is the cutest), and, uh, the bottom half of the Hulk's face. Because deep in your heart, you want to wear the Hulk's face over your face as you go to the pharmacy, I guess.
They come in sets of 4 for $20, proceeds going to charity, which as a price seems pretty reasonable to me given that handmade masks on Etsy are going for $10 or $15 each, usually. Alas, they don't ship until July 15, but it's not like the plague is going to go away by then, so, you know, might as well have more masks.
So we're getting the Marvel ones for me and of course the Disney Princess ones for
lysimache. Yay? I guess.
(I feel like, if this ever ends, "we all had collections of lovingly-made fabric masks with our favorite sports team logos and dog breeds and fictional characters on them" is going to be one of the weirder things to explain.) Read this entry on Dreamwidth ||

What I Just Finished Reading
Lyn Gala, Expeditions, Estimation, and Other Dangerous Pastimes: Look, sometimes you just want to read book number four in an m/m science fiction series where a human linguist and his giant lizard alien boyfriend have a bunch of kinky xeno sex and occasionally encounter new lifeforms and nothing all that bad happens to either one of them. Don't judge me.
K. M. Szpara, Docile: I originally heard about this in a fannish contest as being basically published m/m slavefic, and since I am generally down for m/m slavefic, I was intrigued. But then I read it and it was... kind of a letdown. The mainstream reviews are like OMG SO SCANDALOUS, IT HAS SO MUCH NONCON GAY SEX and I'm just sitting here like "I just read a story where Steve has to insert a variety of improbable and extremely painful objects inside Bucky in public and pretend to like doing it so I don't think you professional reviewers understand how hard fandom goes with respect to this genre; the most degrading thing this guy ever has to do is lick the floor." So I am torn: I don't understand how this really got published as a mainstream novel, what with all the gay slavefic, but also if you're going to embrace your inner non-con slavefic fan, why not go all out? It is a mystery. The actual plot involves the main character going into debt bondage and being essentially conditioned by his master, with a bunch of angst when his master falls in love with him. I guess that was probably why the author wanted to avoid the master doing anything too terrible, in the hopes that we could feel sympathy for him by the end. Weirdly, for a book set in America (specifically, in Baltimore), absolutely nothing about the American history of slavery is mentioned and there are, like, three characters of color total. The book does assert that the ancient Romans had debt bondage (nexum), which is technically true, but neglects to mention that it was abolished in 326 BC, which is the early Republic and almost certainly not the time period anyone pictures when they picture Rome, and it is also different from Roman slavery. Anyway. If you want to pay money for some fairly tropey m/m slavefic with extremely flat characters, you could read this, or you could just reread your favorite fic on AO3.
Naomi Novik, League of Dragons: The last of the Temeraire books, and you can tell -- it's been a couple years -- that I wasn't exactly in a hurry to get around to reading it. This book does pretty much what you think it's going to do: ends the Napoleonic Wars and pretty much wraps everything up about the characters and so on and so forth. I remember thinking that the last couple books were awfully slow, and while this one does hurry it up a little, it's not really anything special. I did really love the first book but I do think it goes downhill from there.

Ta-Nehisi Coates, The Water Dancer: This is historical fantasy but it's the kind of fantasy that I suspect wants to be called "magical realism" instead because it's clearly aiming for a literary audience even though, like, this is a guy who also writes comic books. Anyway, it's about a slave in Virginia who finds his way to the Underground Railroad, and he possesses the magical power of Conduction, which he also shares with Harriet Tubman, but he can't figure out how to reliably trigger it, and as it turns out it lets him walk on water and cover more ground than anyone could in that time period, like a version of a fairy road. Anyway. I think that, much like his comics, this still has pacing problems -- I got to the end and felt like, well, I wanted more book than that, but it's very well-written and has compelling characters. I just feel like I like his non-fiction a whole lot better.

Susannah Cahalan, The Great Pretender: The Undercover Mission That Changed Our Understanding of Madness: While a lot of this felt like reading an advertisement for her previous book, Brain on Fire, which I have not read, I do think she does a convincing job showing that the man who wrote the famous article "On Being Sane in Insane Places" definitely fudged a lot of specific numbers in his data, misrepresented other things, and disqualified one of his subjects on the grounds that he actually liked his time there. So... that's a thing.

1. Hey Robot. Technically, we haven't been playing this recently, but I was planning to, and it's not officially out yet, but we have the print and play version and it's been pretty fun. It's basically Taboo/Password but with a Google Home or Amazon Echo (yes, you have to already own one). The goal is to get your smart speaker to say a given word in its response, which you would think would be easy, but is not. If you want to play it over Zoom or whatever with your friends, they have also released a website version, the Quarantine Edition. One participant has to sit close enough to their speaker for it to be audible to everyone else but it apparently works well.
2. Trivial Pursuit. Ah, yes, so traditional. We ordered (another, because the first one is stuck at Lysimache's workplace) copy of it. The new one is called Trivial Pursuit Classic, and it plays pretty much like every game of Trivial Pursuit ever, except with the mild annoyance that the cards don't come in boxes for no discernible reason, and furthermore one of the sports questions deadnamed Caitlyn Jenner, which there is really no excuse to do. I was considering complaining to the company but they are probably not open.
3. Half-Truth. I Kickstarted this a while back and it finally showed up just before everything went to hell, and we got around to playing it a few days ago, and if you like trivia games, it's a lot of fun. It was created by Richard Garfield (the guy who created Magic: the Gathering) and Ken Jennings (the guy who won the most games of Jeopardy). It's a game where each question has six possible answers, three true and three false. The three false ones are usually pretty plausible. Like, one of the questions was "Prisons in California," and the false ones turned out to be two NY prisons and the (fictional) one from Orange Is the New Black. (And then there was one about wine bottle size names where three of them were true and the other three were Pokemon.) So what you do, basically, is bet on how many of them you think are true, and you can choose to guess between one and three -- you get more points the more you guess correctly, but if you get any wrong you get no points. The tagline says it "makes you feel smart" but depending on how you play it seems to end up being more like "punishing you for your hubris." Anyway, so that's entertaining.
And, as for non-board games, as always I keep playing Marvel Puzzle Quest on my phone because who doesn't like Marvel-themed match-3 games? Also I only ever play Slay the Spire on my computer. I don't know why I even pretend I play anything else on Steam.

Because why not, it's not like I'm writing fic or doing anything productive anyway, I decided to see if I could crate-train the dog. We got a crate when we got her and she seemed willing enough to go in the crate, so I went "okay, fine" and then basically didn't use it.
But the thing is, the dog is afraid of a great deal of things. And I think when we got her she was willing to do more things because all things were equally terrifying, and now she has narrowed it down to what things are actually scary (brooms, vacuums, the dishwasher, the printer, other dogs outside, etc.) but now she's decided that the crate is scary again. I don't know why. She gets in a crate to go in the car!
So here I am, carefully placing dog treats at the entrance to the crate so she will think of it as a fun place where she can lie down. Maybe it will work.
At least the dog is enjoying quarantine. All the people are home ALL THE TIME and not even leaving to get food!

On hiatus, as there are no new comics this week either and I did not manage to read a book. Read a bunch of fanfic, though. Maybe next week I will read a book. Over on the Steve/Tony Discord we are reading Captain America: The Bloodstone Hunt, which I highly recommend if you want an action/adventure romp with Steve and Diamondback up against Zemo and Batroc... but, as you can tell, I have already read it.
(It's the one where Steve has to fight sharks.)

On hold, because not only did I not read anything, there are also zero Marvel comics released today, print or digital, because Diamond stopped shipping and pretty much all the comics publishers stopped selling and a whole lot of stores are closed right now. So it's not even Comics Wednesday!
Supposedly people are working on a solution to have stores sell codes online which can then be redeemed electronically and for physical comics whenever the stores come back (like, the opposite of putting a digital code in every issue), but anyway, that hasn't happened yet.

Time to post this!
They have called this day The Eleventh of March! And whom-so-ever of you gets through this day, unless you are shot in the head or somehow slain, you will stand at tiptoe when e'er you hear the name again, and you will get excited!...At the name March The Eleventh!
We happy few, we few, we band of brothers...our names will be as like...household names. And those who are not here, be they sleeping or... doing something else...They will feel themselves...sort of crappy. Because they are not here to, to join the fight. On this day, the Eleventh of March!
Even though I am no longer posting this from LJ, I made my LJ on March 11, 2001, and... man, that was a long time ago. And I am still amazed by how many of the people I know from those days are still around fandom. And also I married one of them, which at the time I could not have predicted. (Hi, Lysimache, I love you.)
