daemonluna*facepalm* Oh, fandom brain.
Actual headline: Trudeau trades blows with Tony Stark in new Marvel comic
My brain took out the "trades" and "with."
And in other news, thing #2, the kitten is very helpful. He is helpful kitten. He wants to help with cooking things. He will taste the edges to make sure that the swiss chard and the beet greens are all good. He will sample the ends of the fresh beans. He will nibble on the zucchini stems. WHY won't we let him help? WHYYYYY?
#3: Things I have learned in the past weeks: when a publisher offers to send you books for festival prizes, it's prudent to ask how many. 3,733 books. Between 12-200 copies of each title. 59 boxes. Three skids. After much sorting and giving away to other libraries, programs, projects, I thiiiink I am down to about 1,600 unhomed books...?

that's a LOT of books! I hope you can find homes for the remainder; and do remember to ask "how many" first, next time
