Come steal our stuff

Howdy mostly-locals,

We've got a growing pile of stuff to give away in our hallway. I plan on making a post to the trash-pickers of [livejournal.com profile] davis_square on Monday, when we'll drag it out onto the curb. But you get first pick, because we love you. If either [livejournal.com profile] classicaljunkie or I knows you, and you wish to paw through the stuff, please comment (or contact one of us directly) to arrange a visit this weekend or Monday.

First, there are books. Boxes of em. Lots of romance, fantasy, and SF paperbacks. (We are not abandoning our genres; we are just culling our collections, which otherwise threaten to sink the house in their combined weight, like that legend about your college library.) Also some nonfiction, RPG books that eBay didn't want, and some random computer / programming books.

There are also the following items. They are all in perfectly good condition, either wholly unused (if so marked) or lovingly used at one of our two prior apartments. Comment / contact if you have any questions about them.
Long list of stuff )

What Braid is about

I've been reading people's interpretations about the plot of "Braid", and most of them strike me as not so much wrong as overly literal, or just incomplete. Here's my take.
Spoilers, obviously. )

Giveaway addendum

Also, a double-bed-sized headboard, with inset shelving.

And some VHS-format movies. Don't you want to see "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" the way it was meant to be seen?!

Glass Vader

I love this story of a Stained Glass Darth Vader window designed by a 7-year-old in 1977 (and crafted by a grown-up friend). They've been proudly displaying it ever since.
