No one did it like Ursula K.
From The Dispossessed, by Ursula Le Guin: "He had seen the moon rise when he was a little child, from the window of the domicile in Wide Plains, with Palat; over the hills of his boyhood; over the dry Plains of the Dust; over the roofs of Abbenay, with Takver watching it beside him. But it had not been this Moon. The shadows moved about him but he sat unmoving as Anarres rose above the alien hills, at her full, mottled dun and bluish-white, lambent. The light of his world filled his empty hands."

Much much more has been written about this since its release, but reading this at an early stage in my history education was the biggest watershed moment in my academic life

Got up at 5am to spend 11 hours on the ferry then two hours on the train, was deleriously exhausted and grumpy and the train guard handed me these socks and said I'd won them in a "Christmas passenger lottery". God bless Finland.
Some nice green woollen socks with the logo for finnish rail company VR. In finnish, the wrapping says "Warm feet, Christmas can begin here".

New warhammer 40k Eldar guardian model. He has a banner on his back with a picture of the exact helmet he's wearing. Pierce Brosnan's character in Hot Fuzz, smiling at the camera in front of a framed photo of himself making the exact same expression

I love science fiction, man
Prayer, from 'A Canticle for Liebowitz': "A spiritu fornicationis, Domine, libera nos. from the lightning and the tempest, O Lord deliver us. From the scourge of the earthquake, O Lord deliver us. From famine, plague and war, O Lord deliver us. From the place of ground zero, O Lord deliver us. From the rain of the cobalt, O Lord deliver us. From the rain of the strontium, O Lord deliver us. From the fall of the cesium, O Lord deliver us. From the curse of the Fallout, O Lord deliver us. From the be getting of monsters, O Lord deliver us. From the curse of the Misborn, O Lord deliver us. A morte perpetua, Domine libera nos.

Turning to the ancients for career advice
(excerpt from Alaric the Goth by Douglas Boin): "Even a career as a civilian officer seemed out of the question, unless he made the difficult choice, as Modares had, to soften his Gothic image or, following Fravitta's more radical approach, to stab someone at dinner."

I went for a walk yesterday that accidentally became a Taskmaster pilgrimage (Tempe, Sydney, NSW).

I should have brought some cobalt to leave as an offering.

Fallout New Vegas screenshot: The head concierge of the sinister Ultra Lux Casino assures me that "For the last time, the White Glove Society has never and will never consume human flesh for any reason. It's written in the charter". Inspector Colombo shrugs and leaves a room, before returning, opening his mouth to speak.
