A bad idea written down is far better and far more useful to you than a blank sheet of paper and a mythical piece of brilliance that has been stuck in your head out of fear of failure. Go ahead and fail. Then make it better.

I felt like a lot of people needed to hear this. Including myself.

MY NEW BICYCLE. On layby. I’ve been eyeing this electric bike all year and waiting until I had enough cash to plunk down and buy it outright. But today it was discounted and then they offered more of a discount and said layby was okay and I said YAY YES PLEASE. Should be able to take it home in 4 to 6 weeks. (at Cycles Galleria)

As an occasional visitor to Star Wars fandom, here are some things I would like to see come out of Rogue One:

–
the fic about the reactions of the Empire’s IT and records management
departments when they learn that some trigger-happy general just
literally blew up an entire unique archival repository of key bureaucratic data
– the comic about the first time some maintenance
technician tries to repair something on the Death Star and the guy’s
like, ‘where’s the documentation?’ and their boss is like ‘um, well,
funny story about that….’
– the in-depth analysis about various
mistakes the Empire makes in the original trilogy and how they operate
in context of an organization that has just, I repeat, LITERALLY BLOWN UP ALL OF
THEIR OWN BACKUP DATA. Of course it’s easy for any random hero to
impersonate a Stormtrooper! THEY DESTROYED ALL THEIR OWN PERSONNEL
FILES.
