Month in Review(s) - July 2020
July was a month that happened.
Is it bad that all of the months have just kind of squidged into one and I
can't remember what happened in July vs what happened in June?
Can I blame the
Dyscalculia
for that, d'y'think? Or is it just me? (It's probably just me.)
Anyhow, this is your reminder that the Coronavirus situation is NOT over,
and you need to keep taking all the hygiene and distancing
precautions.
(People who think 'it's all over' are... ARGH!)

Friday Fics Fix - The Trick of the Detail
'...it was possible that they hadn’t thought through all of the consequences of Loki joining the team. They certainly hadn’t anticipated this one.'
You know (or maybe you don't, in
which case, lemme inform you,) I have a love of random-a** Avengers fics - add Loki to the
mix?
Hell yeah, I am there!

Nerd Church - Caffeinated Current Events: Explaining the Headlines
(Warning: this post discusses Covid 19/Coronavirus, the backlash against Black
Lives Matter, and general Nazis. Because 2020.)
If you don't know, Caffeinated Current Events (CCE) is where I explain
various stuff in the news whilst under the influence of caffeinated
beverages.
I haven't actually written a CCE post in a while because... 2020. But I felt
like now was the right time to do so because... 2020.
Disclaimer Time: This post is primarily a satirical and snarky
look at the news, intended for entertainmaint and comedy purposes. As
such, hyperbole is likely. You've been warned - don't sue.
This time, I thought I'd take some real-life headlines and explain them
with my own cynically optimistic and optimistically cynical caffeine-hyped
frame of mind.
I'll link to the article each headline comes from so that you can see what
the 'professional' news reporting is like!

Friday Fics Fix - The Fifth Beatle of the Family
'Klaus blinks into the mug in his hands, shaking and in danger of spilling. The book sits between them on the couch, her own face looking up at her, searching, accusing.'
One of the many interesting thing about Netflix series The Umbrella Academy
is the knowledge that this team of superheroes - these
children - were famous as kids.
Fame is something that has to be handled very delicately when it comes to
children - as the self-destructive tendencies, and generally poor mental
health, of many former child-stars, shows.
