  • Any thoughts on my exchange with Cutlass? It's a bit tricky defending an anarchist critique of the state in such a broad way (usually I'd just go straight for property-is-theft-tyranny-etc), and I'm really not sure how much sense I'm making.
    Reading the Hitchens and Kim Jong-il death thread, I've been reminded of how awesome you are. Stay awesome, okay?
    I'm as surprised as you are. Here I am poring over back issues of Aufheben, and then it turns out that I've been a closet Stalinist the whole time! :(
    It's part of our commie plot. You wake up one day and start sympathizing with people merely suspected of being communists. Then before you know it, you start feeling bad for actual communists. It's deviousness on a grand scale.
    DC Canon stopped making sense to me a while ago, so I've just kind of accepted that. Batman and Green Lantern were both going well enough that I can see the impetus to continue their storylines. Publishing a book that plainly states that a few years Clark Kent was an unmarried Daily Star employee new to Metropolis who wore a tee-shirt and jeans as Superman and hadn't developed full strength yet and that he still did all the other stuff that happened in comics published a few years ago is a pretty pathetic CYA move though. Still, if it gives a financial boost to the print comics industry and puts out well-done plotlines, stops overpricing, decompression, and writing for trades (and everything so far seems to indicate it has), I'm willing to accept it with its flaws. I really hope they get somebody with the faintest idea of who Starfire is to write Teen Titans though. Have you read this blog?
    The reboot thing seems a bit unnecessary for sure, but I'm pretty pleased with how Morrison's been writing Superman. Most post-Byrne characterization fails to strike a chord with me, and this is a nice exception.
    Yo, what's a goodish general book for Korean History? (It would also help if you knew a good Japanese book as well). I do believe those are the last areas of Asia that I'm grievously deficient in.
    Well, I kinda messed with the First World War - the Americans never got involved, Germany/Russia/A-H/Qing China basically won, and a worldwide depression hit in the fall of 1919. Also, I had butterflies give us Presidents Champ Clark (1912-6), Charles Evans Hughes (1916-24), and Al Smith (1924-28??), the last one not quite so plausible as the other two but w/e. Kinda fishing around for ideas for the 1932 election, cause that's where the game is supposed to start.
