It Came From The Archives! “Dark Harvest: A Scary Book That’ll Ruin Your Day”
Jan 29, 2025
“Compartmentalising” confirmed so many of my theories. I feel quite proud of myself, actually. After consuming so many episodes of The Magnus Archives and making it a part of my personality, I was hoping I’d gotten a good enough sense of things to predict matters.
Sometimes, the scariest things are things we know are coming but have no way of preventing it.
This is part 4 of a list of the best 25 cards in the latest Magic: The Gathering set, Aetherdrift. The articles are meant to be read in order, so start with the first one if you want the full list. Cards are presented in WUBRG order and alphabetically within each color. Hope you’re having fun…
Exit Strategy Shouldn’t Work As A Sci-Fi Book I don’t understand how Murderbot (the book series) keeps getting away with this. Exit Strategy is a slog to read for so long, with exposition being thrown at you with a density I am unsure how anyone is expected to navigate. But, by the end of it,…
Imagine the scale of stars for a moment.
It’s difficult, isn’t it? Thinking about stuff that big, out in solar systems that big, with so much emptiness between them?
Well, this story is not going to make that any easier.

We return to our silly story.
We return now to Charles.
It’s been many, many years since we last saw him. He’s changed a lot. Learned a lot. But his hatred for the Earth’s closest celestial body has not diminished in the slightest.
I am unhappy with the power level of Aetherdrift. Maybe I simply don’t see the inherent potency of vehicles or the “Start your engines” mechanic, but this list series is going to be different from the one I did for Foundations. Mainly because I couldn’t find five good enough Standard cards in each color.
The Mightnight Sky is bleak. A sense of loss, sadness, and more just permeates every moment of this movie. Even the biggest moment of levity made me tense, not relieved. And you really have to be in the right headspace to enjoy it.
This is a silly story. There’s no way around that. It is a sci-fi tale, set in the far future, but it’s also pure comedy.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps teaser is a fascinating look at the current cultural interests, and especially what Marvel has learned from its other projects. The aesthetic, from moment one, is so very distinct—and so very familiar.
