    “How am I the most sensible pilot in this household?” Kiem said. “How did that happen?”

    “I don’t know what you mean,” Jainan said mildly. “I’m sensible.”

    I didn’t know I needed a Winter’s Orbit graphic novel, but now I must have a Winter’s Orbit graphic novel. @avoliot

    even though she died two years before i was born, there were always tabloids in the grocery store about JonBenét Ramsey’s death and “new breaks in the case”. i would always stare at them and wonder who the pretty blonde girl was that died. surprisingly i didn’t know anything about 9/11 until grade school.

    JonBenét’s murder is the first thing I really remember, news-story-wise. I actually refused to do pageantry because I thought that if I did, I was gonna get raped and murdered like she did. I still think it was her parents, too.

    Michael Jackson’s Thriller video/movie coming out. It was a super big deal.

    I always say Nixon/Vietnam, but I think that’s a memory of a story I was told. It’s probably really Jimmy Carter getting elected/1976 Olympics.

    “I’m almost 50, and here is the best thing I have learned so far: every strange thing you’ve ever been into, every failed hobby or forgotten instrument, everything you have ever learned will come back to you, will serve you when you need it. No love, however brief, is wasted.” @louisethebaker on Twitter

    I will be 50 in four days and this is verifiable fact.

  • Brood X or Gen X?
    “In May, a swarm of billions of cicadas known as Brood X will emerge from the earth after hibernating for the past 17 years.” — Slate - - -1

    One of the most perfect things I’ve ever read.

  • Do you ever relisten to your favorite new wave synth pop from the 80s and realize what sounds like a plan was just someone having fun pushing all the buttons.
