out it goes: my long post about Rachel Hope Cleves's claim that Tillie Walden plagiarised her book. It's long because Cleves's claim is much, much more bizarre than it looked on first reading. I'm not going to bury the lede here. Cleves's claim does not hold up. buttondown.com/thene/archiv...

stick a pin in this metaphor

…because these covers are a microcosm of the entire conflict; Walden's book is mostly built on writing and other objects left by Sylvia Drake, Charity Bryant, and others. Her work includes many elements from these records that Cleves does not refer to in her book, and many of her interpretations of those records are different from Cleves's interpretations, often intentionally so. In addition to her historical basis, Walden's book includes fictional dialogue and story elements that are original to her work, some of which are inspired by Walden's own life.

i am working on a very, very long blog post that could really have fit into a skeet: When someone posts that "this website/journal article/etc proves my dramatic claim!!!" and then does not link to the website, journal article, etc, it is because it does not in fact prove their dramatic claim.

enjoying imagining the discussion among editors in which they determined if this ought to be pluralized as Spider-Mans, Spider-Men, or Spiders-Man

The former World Liberty adviser said the scenario reminded him of the meme in which two Spider-Mans point at each other.

Esto es una queja extraña. Cuál es el formato? El fondo aportaría al gag? El dibujo más detallado haría el gag más gracioso? ¿En qué sentido? ¿Serían los primeros álbumes de La Mazmorra más graciosos con un estilo que no fuese el de Trondheim? ¿XKCD no es gracioso e ingenioso? Azumanga Daioh noo no?

No entiendo el énfasis que se pone a veces en el apartado gráfico de los cómics de humor. En algunas reseñas leo "las viñetas no tienen fondos" o "el dibujo es muy sencillo", incluso párrafos enteros destacando estas características, y es como... ¿ok? ¿A Forges o a Romeu también les hacían esto?

Round the sacred yew trees in the great wilds of Asturias, Lord Busgosu, the great spirit of the forest, leads the fay-folk in their night-time revelry. The satyr-like deity protects the forest-people from any humans who find themselves lost in Cantabria's sacred woods, guiding them safely home.

Busgosu leads an assortment of forest creatures around a large yew tree, decorated with glowing baubles and flags. Busgosu has a large beard, pointed ears, goat legs, Rams horns, deer antlers, and is waving a tambourine in the air. Among the forest creatures is a large troll-like creature, a fox, a head with legs and a stubby tail, a humanoid rat-thing blowing a horn made from birds heads, a snake with a rams head, a flying bell, some fairies, and 3 one-eyed elven creatures with pointed hats and a head cloaked by a hood.
