On Evil Superman

 I will not have a lot of time to write on Friday, so I am writing this earlier in the week! I hope it turns out okay.


Funnily enough, I wrote down the idea for this Saturday Note right before bed, and then I had a related dream? That kind of thing doesn’t usually happen to me. I thought it was pretty weird. And kind of cool, because I was Batman in that dream.

Characters Who Are Bad at Their Jobs

 I am currently trying out a couple of new shows on streaming, since I finished watching season four of The Expanse and rewatching Justice League Unlimited. We’ll see how it goes!


I realized that I had talked a lot about character competence a couple of weeks ago in that Saturday Note, but I have already worked some notes for this one, so I had to rework this to make it something different.

In Praise of the Cadmus Arc

I thought that the edition of Assassin’s Creed: Origins that I bought on sale, came with the expansions. It does not. Which is fine, really, because the season pass goes on sale often, and it’s a ways before I finish the main game anyway. I am currently reading Red Seas Under Red Skies, which I’m pretty excited about, and a couple of comics this weekend.

This was a contender for last week’s Saturday Note, but I wasn’t finished with the season when I started writing, so I thought I’d give it a week to sit in my head. And I almost forgot about the idea! But it’s cool, it’s back.

Adaptational Incompetence

My computer is having… issues with the charger, so I am working on a different computer. I don’t know how this affects my writing output; I’ll be doing my best, but I don’t know if I can write as much the next few days as I work this out. As such, we’re counting words on Saturday Note and Fun Facts for the word count total for the day.

Not that you guys keep track of these things, but it’s happening.

I am currently playing Assassin’s Creed: Origins, and I have Egypt on the mind, so I was tempted to talk about Egyptian myth or a fantasy based on Egyptian history/mythology. But instead this occurred to me (it came up in conversation recently).

Waller Doesn't Need to Hide Much

 Hallo! I am behind on my Book Diary, which has me a bit worried. I’m also hoping to have a short story finished so that I can work on Camp NaNoWriMo, starting today, so I need to make sure I get on that. I hoped to also get a new Impish article out soon. Ish. We will see!

The new season of The Witcher is on Netflix, as is Nimona–but I have the DVD of SHAZAM! Fury of the Gods from the library, so I probably won’t get to all of that now. Also, I’ve started the fourth season of The Expanse.


Anyhow some reflections on Justice League Unlimited! This one’s pretty link-heavy, and I apologize.
