Absolute Green Lantern #3 - "The Philosopher's Stone"
Jul. 4th, 2025 09:39 pmlaughing_tree posting in scans_daily
Originally I wanted John Stewart to be the main protagonist, and I wanted him to be around forty-five. I sat down one day and thought to myself ‘Do I want to do another haunted old man comic? Do I want to do another comic about an older man?’ A lot of my comics seem to be about old men. I was getting notes about how passive John was in the book as well. I was searching for who else could be the protagonist after that, and I had plans for Hal, and I needed somebody who cuts through really well. That’s Jo Mullein. -- Al Ewing

Daily Happiness
Jul. 4th, 2025 09:10 pmtorachan1. I had a pretty relaxing day today. Aside from walking up to the store this morning for pie crust and salad stuff, I did not go anywhere and just chilled at home.
2. I got some of the rhubarb I chopped up and froze a few weeks ago out of the freezer and made another pie. There's still four bags (I didn't divide it that way on purpose but it turns out two bags is exactly enough for one pie).
3. Ollie is such a cutie pie.

Weekly Reading
Jul. 4th, 2025 06:07 pmtorachanCurrently Reading
Murder at the Patel Motel
39%. This is not actually a book, so much as an audio drama. It's an Audible Original and comes free with membership, so I decided to try it out. Turns out the author and voice of the main character is the guy who played Jack's assistant on 30 Rock. I loved him in that! And I'm liking this "book" a lot so far.
Just Happy to Be Here
11%. YA about a South Asian trans girl's experience at a mostly white all girls' high school. It's all right so far.
Sister Outsider
No progress.
Riding the Rails
48%.
Recently Finished
How Jesus Became God: The Exaltation of a Jewish Preacher from Galilee
I felt like this took ages to finish, but it was a good read. Very interesting stuff.
A Terrible Nasty Business
I really want more books in this series.
Sou Iu Ie no Ko no Hanashi vol. 1
New series from Shimura Takako following three characters who were raised in the same new religion (the religion in the story is not any real one, just based on others), marking them as different from the majority of the population, which is not actively religious. I like pretty much everything by Shimura Takako, so I'm curious to see where this goes.
Tsumetakute Yawaraka vol. 5

2025 Disneyland Trip #47 (7/3/25)
Jul. 4th, 2025 02:30 pmtorachanThis was another last minute decision. With the lower level keyholders blocked out for summer there's almost always same-day availability, so might as well take advantage of it.

Daily Happiness
Jul. 3rd, 2025 11:59 pmtorachan1. Three day weekend! I'm looking forward to relaxing and not doing much.
2. I had two interviews today and both of them stood me up, but the good thing is that I was doing them from home, so I hadn't gone out of my way for them and wasn't particularly inconvenienced.
3. We decided to go to Disneyland for dinner. Had a lovely time, though it was a bit more trafficy both going and coming than I would prefer.
4. Suspicious Gemma.
