So far I have only watched the first episode of The Punisher, which I probably liked too much. I really do love how they've made the Big Bad Punisher so ridiculously sweet in the sack. But I'm honestly not sure how much of it I'm going to get around to this coming week. Certainly not today, when I've got to put together the blog on Canadian Nationals, though right now I'm just sad about skating and their reaction to John Coughlin. When multiple accusations of "sexual misconduct" come out against a guy like him, they're usually true, and too many people will never face that, and enable the next guys, and make things way worse for the victims.
Also, I ended up writing this yesterday. I hadn't thought I would, because I really wasn't sure how I was going to deal with the Endgame teaser (and I'm ignoring that whole thing about Shuri), and whether I was going to go forward with my original plans for this particular character, but when I was going to lunch Friday the key to it hit me and for the second time this series a ficlet just unfolded in my head:

Sunday while watching the Intermediate Men's free at Nationals, I found myself watching a boy skating his free program to Hamilton. He won the bronze too. Since Lin-Manuel Miranda actually said on Twitter once he's happy to hear about any Hamilton skating programs, I tweeted this news to him, and even manage to find video from Regionals on YouTube. Two days later, I'm still getting notifications of people reacting! I suppose it has to stop at some point, but who knows when. Before or after the next Hamilton program shows up?
In spare moments I've been reading Percy Jackson's Greek Heroes. This may be the best retelling of the Greek myths I've ever read. It's lively, it's funny, it tries to make things make sense and calls them out when they can't, and it even tries to give the reader some knowledge of what Ancient Greece was really like. Also, it has the history of the Amazons and at least one other female-centered story that weren't in any of the mythology books I had as a kid. It seems Riordan realized we ought to have some of those stories in there.
Got my Pentagon badge replaced today, since it was set to expire in two weeks. Now I'm don't have to worry about it until 2020. If we're all still alive by then...
