It's very disappointing that they don't link directly to this video[1], unlike the New York Times which always links directly to their sources and references. It seems like the New York Times is the only mainstream news site that's not absolutely terrified of letting their readers go to another website.
Turn on captions if you're having trouble keeping up.
1) What if they don't? 2) The end of the century is 78 years away, somebody's going need to turn you on your side every few hours when you're in that old folks home - what happens if there aren't enough people to do those jobs?
Then came the issue of how to illustrate the book. Laurel and her agent had been trying to make the project a reality for years, and after talks with Disney Publishing and The Simpsons writers, red tape got in the way of it being an official Simpsons cookbook. So Laurel signed a deal with Adams Media, which had experience in the legalities of unofficial cookbooks (Game of Thrones and Downton Abbey, for example) and helped navigate the project to publication. One of the loopholes was avoiding any imagery from The Simpsons, so Laurel says they had to be “creative” in how they designed it – “not just pictures of Homer drooling”. Using fun illustrations by Priscilla Yuen, a distinctively Simpsons-esque typeface, a colour scheme heavy on the yellow, and photographs by Harper Point that depict some of the most delicious final dishes in all their glory, the book is a loving tribute to the show and Laurel’s dream project. “My voice is very much in there,” she adds, on the benefits of going “unofficial”.
Thank you, that was a fantastic read, really fills in the universe that Blindsight was set it. Here's a direct link to the PDF: https://www.rifters.com/real/shorts/VampireDomestication.pdf
So can someone explain to me why this is a plot hole? If the episode took place on March 22nd, Will Byers' birthday, we would expect... a birthday party?
