  • George R. R. Martin edited a terrific series called Wild Card that is really well grounded. The premise is an alien virus that gives people random mutations and some of them are horrific (the Jokers) but some get fantastic powers (the Aces).

    It’s pretty gritty and ‘realistic’ like they really go deep into how the various powers would realistically affect people and be used.

    I really liked it up until

    Tap for spoiler

    one of the authors decided that ALL of the abilities and powers were all just forms of telekenesis , really sucked all the fun out of it!

    cold food hot bowl is a direct sign of not having good microwaveable dishes.

    My in laws have this white corelle stuff that swears it’s microwave safe on the bottom but it gets hot as fuck when you reheat food. i don’t think it’s just because it’s thin either if you try to melt butter in it the dishes get very hot.

    The glass bentgo containers i use for storing food seem to be completely invisible to the microwaves. You can get food bubbling hot and still grab the glass container to pull it out and it’s completely cool.
