Do we still like Jack Black?

Did he become persona non grata or is he more like that weird uncle no one really likes but we still invite him to Thanksgiving anyway?

It isn't a crime to be happy, and even if it were I could plead not guilty.

I was sorting the candy for expiration dates the other day and one of the fruit things had a date sometime in 2028, and I just...

That's not a real date. It can't be. I still barely understand 2025.

The world feels a little less real now.

no animal was harmed during the making of this video. not one. for the few minutes that we were shooting film, the guns of each hunter fell silent. the industrial bolt throwers observed a moment's peace and the jaws of every predator hung softly open. no fish bit any hook and the bait worms held off on drowning only until the cameras stopped. the tails of ruminants ceased to flick just as their attendant flies, in unison, landed on their flanks to catch their tiny breaths. a spider instantly stopped winding silk around a wasp, patiently waiting for the caesura to end. a young veterinarian paused with the syringe in their hand. somewhere, a colicky baby stopped biting its mother's nipple and nursed happily for the very first time. we're sorry. we're sorry it couldn't have been longer. we didn't know this would happen.

Something interesting about the Prophecy of the Delta Rune is--well, there's several interesting things about it.

Firstly, I'm less interested in its contents than I am in its origin. Who wrote the Prophecy? Who was the mad seer or oracle who foresaw all this with such unerring accuracy? The religion based around it doesn't seem to mention that, when in any other religion the speaker of such a prophecy would be revered as a--well, as a prophet. I've never connected the etymology of those two words before but it's obvious now.

Secondly, the Prophecy is no longer in the future, it is very much in the present, and the citizens of Hometown don't even know. How messed up would it be if we go through every chapter and none of the adults in town know what's going on? They've waited potentially centuries believing this and they won't even know when it's already come to pass.

I suppose it could be a cyclical thing. Maybe this isn't the first time the Prophecy has happened. Maybe it won't be the last.

An AU is when something crucial is different form the source material. Everyone is the opposite gender, someone else is the main character, Hero Boy's parents aren't dead and got to raise him, Hometown Village doesn't get destroyed at the end of the first act and the villagers are more than just faceless background extras doomed to die. That sort of thing.

A parody is something taken to its logical extreme, or everything is played as farce, or, distressingly often, the author thinks what they're writing is stupid and it shows.

The two really aren't that similar.

I think in some cases we need to put the term "AU" on the shelf for a bit – not because there's anything wrong with AUs in principle, but because often the word folks are clearly grasping for is "parody".
