The rest could wait for another time.Except...If I got up and went out, I could finish it off, and then the whole line was done in a single day....
'What Else Is On?' is a collection of things from elsewhere on the web that I want to share. Down to the wire with this one! It's been some kind of month over here!

It's the final day of July, and I'm in a contemplative mood. Tomorrow begins Blaugust 2026, a fun event where bloggers are challenged to write 31 blog posts in 31 days. Will I participate? Well, every month has been Blaugust for me since November 2025, as I've written at least 23 posts every month since then....

KRAVEN THE HUNTER SPIDER-MAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES (TOY BIZ) Iāve been using this space here on Fridays to celebrate getting through the week a lot recently, and you know what, Iām really feeling that for this week in particular, because oh boy did it just keep going. But Iām here at the end of it, and you guys are...
I had two pieces up this month, one in New Scientist and one in Quanta. I figured Iād give a bit of ābonus infoā for both here.
