I've typeset and bound the Bifrost Incident by the Mechanisms. Courtesy of two fellow bookbinders I've got fancy corners and apple leather. And courtesy of Mum and her sewing machine, getting the leather and cloth together was easy (for me 🤭). I didn't quite think through when cutting the edges and so they're not really pointed. (Which is mostly hidden by the corrners now.)

I entertained various ideas for the cover. Would've liked to create a mock tape, complete with a ribbon acting as magnetic tape on the spine. But that was two narrow for me to really feel like doing. Another idea was creating a file, which we might see in the typeset as well.

In the end, I didn't have cloth or paper in a colour I would've like, so a vegan leather notebook it became.

Also, I've found two spellings for the narrator. Everyone seems to be using Lyfrassir, and only on the band's bandcamp I've found Lifrassir. Decided to go with the Lyf spelling, but as we see… the cover had different ideas, which I only noticed after reaching the first or second s…

I feel like at some point somebody should do an adaptation of Hamlet involving a zombie outbreak as a major part of the plot, if only because "something is rotten in the state of Denmark" as the tagline is too good an opportunity to pass up.

i mean it's already got ghosts, what's so crazy about zombies

Oh yeah, Hamlet's father is a zombie in this version, no question.

It's been forever since I read Hamlet but something something his thirst for vengeance leading Hamlet down a road of destruction in the original paralleled and magnified by his thirst for vengeance leading to an out of control zombie outbreak in Denmark in this version? Something something the contagious nature of zombies used to draw attention to the cycle of careless violence that ends up destroying everyone involved? Is that anything?

AITA for realizing that my best friend is actually a ghost and not telling him because i'm worried that if he realizes he's dead he'll finally be able to accept it and fully pass on and i won't be able to hang out with him anymore?

AITA if i've been dead for a while but haven't told my best friend yet because he doesn't seem to have realized i'm a ghost and if he does i'm worried that he'll finally be able to accept it and let me go and i can't bear the thought of losing him?

AITA for killing that guy
