🎉 Weekend Edition Vol.040

Look into my eyes... and you'll see... I'm just a bill up on capitol hill

First Weekend Edition in a bit given the holidays, but we are one again returning with a packed week. If you are new here, this is where we let you know about all the amazing things we published throughout the week.

Before we get into all of that goodness, you can nominate us for Best Lit Mag on Chill Subs (across all categories) if you feel so inclined. This whole endeavor is still very tiny so I don't expect much to happen, but it'd still be cool if we can make a list over there somehow.

Now on to the good stuff.

First up, a new sci-fi short story from S.T. Gillard that will feel both familiar and fresh at the same time and even leans into horror a bit.

James returns to look at games for December including some analog goodness.

Making his debut in foofaraw is Robert van Vliet with his six part poem, ISLAND. I've been working with Robert to publish one of his poems since February so I'm happy we've finally made it a reality.

And to wrap things up for the week, we published the sixteenth issue of Garrett's webcomic The Outer, and the fourth part in The Possession arc.

Of course on Monday we had our usual with The Media Guide. I still haven't gotten around to watching Black Doves and Creature Commandos, but everything I'm hearing about both is superb.

And the return of Review of Links for those wonderful, amazing [+] subscribers who may have been dropped on their head one too many times as a baby because they decided to give us money.

That's a wrap for the week! I'm starting work on top ten lists for 2024 across tv, movies, comics, and music. Would love to hear what your favorites are—feel free to reply or drop em in the comments.

Plus, there's only two more weeks before we take our much (un)deserved three week holiday break between seasons and I've already started the S5 planning, which is looking pretty amazing.

See you Monday.

Stay sane and be kind,
