This live show is great, also. Low-key looking at tickets for when they're on the coast next month.

Rest in Power Graham Greene

I think there will be more in depth obituaries to follow, but here's a couple I liked.

CBC: 'Like watching Gretzky play hockey:' Colleagues remember actor Graham Greene.

CBC (Video): Remembering Graham Greene (interview with Jesse Wente).

I just saw him in Sweet Summer Pow Wow last week. Hard to imagine he's gone.

Heather Cox Richardson: August 31, 2025.
Almost one hundred and forty-three years ago, on September 5, 1882, workers in New York City celebrated the first Labor Day holiday with a parade.

Signal Boost: Humble Book Bundle: Martha Wells

Humble Book Bundle: Martha Wells' Murderbot and More by TOR (pay what you want and help charity):
This multi-Hugo Award-winning series includes standout titles like All Systems Red and Artificial Condition. Plus, a portion of your purchase helps support World Central Kitchen.

The full bundle includes all of the Murderbot novellas and novels plus two short stories, the two stand-alone fantasy novels, Witch King, the first two Ile-Rien novels, and the middle-grade adventure novels. Doesn't include any Raksura novels or the Ile-Rien trilogy (which I guess Tor doesn't have the rights to yet?). Obviously doesn't include the tie in novels.

I already own all of these, but it's a good deal if you don't!

Should be available for the next three weeks.

Works in the US and Canada, not sure where else.
