pioneering something called “gritted teeth optimism” where everything is gonna turn out okay even if i have to bite and claw and gnash my way through it

Everything’s gonna be fine and it’s not negotiable.

This is fun and actually useful. If you want to know where to start reading my books anyway.

The Essential Neil Gaiman - The New York Times

nytimes.com

okay, no disrespect to Neil or the nyt, but i think THE place to start is The Graveyard Book. Sandman, American Gods, and Neverwhere are some of my favorite stories, but they’re also pretty long and meandering at times, whereas The Graveyard Book feels like a distillation of some of Neil’s best ideas and themes into a tight package that’s also a chill read because it’s written for all ages. it’s one of those rare books like The Hobbit or The Giver that really transcends age-range and has something of value for everyone. it’s also the only book to win both the Newbery Award for children’s fiction *and* the Hugo Award for Sci-fi/Fantasy literature, which honestly shows you just how universal of a story it is.

Neil Gaiman is my favorite author, and The Graveyard Book is always the book i recommend because it’s a short, accessible read that is representative of his style and leaves you both wanting more and primed to jump into his longer works. so yeah, go read it!

hey netizens! i’m not sure how many people are aware, but youtube’s been slowly rolling out a new anti-adblock policy that can’t be bypassed with the usual software like uBlock Origin and Pi-Hole out of the gate

BUT, if you’re a uBlock Origin user (or use an adblocker with a similar cosmetics modifier), you can add these commands in the uBlock dashboard (under My Filters) to get rid of it!

youtube.com##+js(set, yt.config_.openPopupConfig.supportedPopups.adBlockMessageViewModel, false)

youtube.com##+js(set, Object.prototype.adBlocksFound, 0)

youtube.com##+js(set, ytplayer.config.args.raw_player_response.adPlacements, [])

Sorry to everyone who’s enjoyed the last 130 years of science and culture journalism, but Disney needs the money to fund Toy Story 9

Certain words can change your brain forever and ever so you do have to be very careful about it.
