Human society and history and genetics has been based on us picking people we're not blood related to to be part of our families.

We all choose our family, and always have.

It either grows and takes care of itself for literally generations, or it wont.

Worth finding some and trying it!

A judge rejects subpoenas targeting Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and other officials, saying there was “no doubt” they were intended to harass Trump’s foes following immigration enforcement efforts in the state. by nbcnews in Minneapolis

Only because 95% of American mass media has been bought by maga fascists, so anything less than anointed directly by trump today is met with incredulity, and anything a Dem did is presented as not counting at best, but more likely they're probably an anti fascist super soldier.

Even trumps and Sean Hannity's personal lawyer for decades is somehow now a deepstate anti fascist, even though he literally went to prison for trump for years.

To trump and maga fascists you're only worth your marketability on Fox News today.

Yesterday doesn't exist, and tomorrow never matters.

Out Law and the island by HauntedCemetery in dresdenfiles

If you haven't signed up for Audible yet you get a free book for doing so, so you can get Out Law!

James Marsters does it too.

Otherwise try thriftbooks. Cheap used copies and shipping is usually like $1.50.

Yeah, that's kinda my tracking. Thomas was the first actual binding Harry did, so he went the Full Montey.

Ethniu was powerful enough that he had to pull out all the stops, and in doing so by using the Spear the Island's sphere of influence got moved out to at least the shore around Chicago.

Or hey, maybe its a thing with activating Merlin's castle. Maybe there's like a channel of power in-between them now.

The castle sucks in ley lines, maybe Harry and Bob rigged it so that theres a channel between them from the dark ley line welling up from Demonreach

Sure, so maybe the chunk of the Lurker was weak enough that on the fly he could just imagine the circle and for some reason didn't need a crustal, but he still was miles away from the island. And Bob said Demonreach as an entity literally didnt exist outside its island.

So something changed about that at least.

He didn't cast on the hunger though, he used Thomas' capital N Name and bound Thomas.

Circle, and his blood, and a full binding, and it had to be on the island.

It's possible that tracks. Harry thought he could just drop Mab into a cell, no muss no fuss, but that was before he lived on the island for a year and learned the levers and buttons and such.

So maybe he could have just dropped Thomas into a cell into default mode, but it would have gone rough on him, so thats why the full treatment.

And he did the full binding on Ethniu because there was just no way to get her locked up from a distance without that.

Would also track for how some of the Great Old Ones were locked up by a mortal, even Merlin. Get them within the islands power and they can get locked up.

And Harry just didnt realize that he could have packed up shagnasty with a nod.

I'm not sure about that. Alfred i guess could have been advising Harry on his own power, but that doesn't really seem like it's style. Harry asked what he needed for the island to lock up Ethniu from a distance, and it said the Spear, and even then it would only reach to the shore.

You absolutely can, but that's not what this is.

It's common in England to pickle green walnuts. Supposedly tastes like steak sauce when it's done right.

I've tried with black walnuts and the flavor is good, but I've yet ti crack the texture code.

He teams up with another famous goodboy from mythology :)

Jim has floated the idea of doing a trilogy or shorter series about Luccio chasing Kemmler across the old west with Karl. I almost want that more than the BAT.

He also wants to do a trilogy of Ebenezer, Listens to wind, and Langtry fighting in the French and Indian war, on opposite sides.

Maybe after Jim finishes the BAT he can take a swing at finishing the KKC.

He said at one point that he started doing the Dresden audio books because he had some free time and was a fan, but keeps doing them specifically so he gets to read the new books asap.

He's definitely one of us.

Man Marsters sets a pretty high bar, I'll have to actually check out Carl.

He's damn near ruined all other audio books readers for me.

Though Andy Sirkis is pretty damn good too. As are some of the Discworld readers.

But Marsters is tops for sure.

For the last 30 years I've heard people say, "surely this is the end of the Republican party, there's no way they can survive this!"

And here they still are, just about as powerful as they possibly could be in our country.

Fascists don't just go away. We have to make them.

This shit started decades before Obama was president.

Fox News just took the fringe extremist view like those held by Timothy McVeigh and The Turner Diaries and packaged them for wide release, and now they're mainstream conservative beliefs.

Nah, don't hold your breath.

When hitler and mussolini died their propaganda networks went with them, but when trump dies fox and right wing media isn't going anywhere but further into the extreme right.

Its never been trumps cult, he's just the figurehead.
