July 28, 2020 by JD DeLuzio Books 0 Comments
War was all about the annihilation of truth. Every good dictator and CEO knows that.
“Good find, Dietz,” Jones said.
It didn’t feel like a good find. It felt like I’d made everything more complicated (255).

Bureau’s Breakroom’s Television Table – Week beginning 2020 July 26
July 26, 2020 by `Lex Pendragon Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Doom Patrol, Perry Mason, Stargirl, TV Series, Umbrella Academy 1 Comment
Another summer week, another light list. Perry Mason actually starts being a lawyer this week. Stargirl gets to discover more about her school’s janitor, while the Doom Patrol tackles their daddy issues. The Agents return to the eighties after their bottle episode last week. If that wasn’t enough Comics for you this week, Netflix has stashed something away for just such a rainy day: The Umbrella Academy drops season two on Friday! If you were just looking for cheap laughs, Robot Chicken drops a few episodes to end their season.
[Edit to add:] Muppets Now comes out this week. Is that the Genre enough that it should be included here for Bureau 42? It certainly is no less so appropriate than Perry Mason, so it is included. As always, feel free to debate and comment if something should not be added or if something good is being missed.
[All synopses (and titles) from Trakt.tv below the cut, except when there really aren’t any. (If a show’s synopsis is a spoiler to you, do not click More…)]
