Banner Stuff for Mark Reads

Hey, could y'all give me suggestions for cool imagery for Hogfather and A Wizard Abroad? And maybe for Jingo and The Wizard's Dilemma? Not sure how many books I want to work ahead, and I'm running later than I'd like with this one.

Anyway, thanks!

My kitten just had one of her first kitten lessons. Don't play with bees. Poor bella is holding up her paw and feeling very sorry for herself.

Music thread


This week share all your melancholic, sad and rather dejected music, everything. I think I have an affinity for that type of music.

Alerting/Waiting/Flailing Post for Mark Watches Videos (for August 15 - 19 episodes)


(pic from MW VOY 2x23 - genhzngvmrq ol fcnpr pybjaf)

This is where Mark lets us know when the new videos are up (they're usually uploaded all at once). Please do not try to buy a new episode until he posts here (or on Twitter) to say there's something new ready to download.

Link exchanges and donations take place on the Black Market post. Below are links to the store page for each show (just click on the show title), plus a list of the episodes that we expect to be uploaded for the week.

STAR TREK: DS9
5x01

STAR TREK: VOYAGER
3x01
3x02
3x03
3x04

(SERIAL EXPERIMENTS LAIN is the next double feature on the schedule, but Mark wasn't sure as of last week if he would have time to start another DF this month between Patreon commissions and getting stuff done before tour dates in a couple of weeks.)

I watched Unbreakable for the first time last night, and I wonder if it would have been more commercially successful if it came out 10 years later when superhero movies were a more commonly seen thing

Great movie either way. Like it better than the Sixth Sense actually.

Extra History



We're back this week with the twilight and fall of the Roman Republic. No parallels to modern day here, no sir. Absolutely none.

I made an AMV! I've been threatening to do something like this for years, and then I found a PERFECT remix of the song, and... yeah. Anyway, it's my first AMV, so any critiques/tips/suggestions for improvement are very welcome!

Anime: Madoka Magica (spoilers for both the TV series and the movie)
Song: "Our Darkest Dreams" by Blake Inc. (remix/mashup of "You Are Not Alone" from Final Fantasy IX with "Time's Scar" from Chrono Cross, with original lyrics by the band, no spoilers for either game)

Does anyone know approximately when Mark will be starting Jane the Virgin or Person of Interest?

Both are shows I've considered watching but hadn't gotten to yet. I probably won't start them right now (with the Olympics going on) but I'd kind of like to have a date in mind for when the reviews will start going up.

AKA, the game which is making me think about just not eating for the last week of the month so I can afford to get it when it comes out...

Has anyone played it on PS4 or planning on getting it when it comes out on PC in 2 days? Looks amazing and yet zen.
