Welcome to our next Write/Draw-In session!
These sessions are open to everyone to brainstorm ideas, cheerlead, do
sprints together, and generally encourage lots of creativity! Lurkers
are welcome ^ ^
This Saturday, come join us over in the chat at the Bond fandom Slack. Slack requires an email invite, so if you need one of those, hit up @castillon02, @ao3-brihna, or @spiritofcamelot for an invite!
The Cafe Mods will be hosting a chat with assorted prompts, tea, and some good old-fashioned brainstorming! @castillon02 and @spiritofcamelot will be hanging around in the chat room starting at 9AM EST until we’re all too accomplished/exhausted to write/draw anymore!
Feel free to pop along anytime during the day and join in!
People who don’t want to read The Martian in case the science is too complicated should be informed that it contains the lines “The best way to store the ingredients of water is to make them be water”, “It is of course dangerous to set off an explosive device on a spacecraft”, and “If I cut a hole in the wall of the hab, the air won’t stay inside any more”.
I love this fucking book
“I’ve said the words kilowatt-hours-per-sol so many times they’ve lost all meaning so I’m going to call them pirate-ninjas.

Pie at Four & Twenty Blackbirds
Shop entrance and pie bar at Four & Twenty Blackbirds
If the American pie bar is news to you, you’re not alone. Emily Elsen says she didn’t realize she was one of the original trendsetters when, seven years ago, she and her sister Melissa opened their first Four & Twenty Blackbirds in Brooklyn. Even earlier this year, when the Elsen sisters opened their fifth location — a 10-stool bar where you can chase a slice with wine or beer — Emily says she had yet to realize the extent of this sweet and widening outbreak.
“Having been in the business and written a cookbook, we’ve seen people [including Ms. Glennon] start their own business,” Elsen says. “But I’m surprised to find out there are as many as there are.”
There’s no definitive data on just how many pie bars there are — or by how much the pie-bar world has grown. But according to the American Pie Council, which collects data on pies, total pie sales have been growing steadily — now at about $1 billion per year.
