Figlia del più potente trafficante dello Stretto, la giovane Fable ha conosciuto un solo luogo che possa chiamare "casa": una nave ormai colata a picco. Quattro anni prima ha visto la madre annegare durante una terribile tempesta; il giorno seguente il padre l'ha abbandonata su un'isola covo di furfanti. Per sopravvivere Fable ha dovuto imparare a badare a se stessa, senza fidarsi di nessuno e contando solo su ciò che sua madre le ha insegnato. A tenerla viva è il desiderio di lasciare l'isola, ritrovare il padre e rivendicare il proprio posto al suo fianco.

La Marigold è finalmente libera dalla tirannia di suo padre, e come tutta la ciurma Fable si prepara a un nuovo inizio.

Se vuole giungere alla sua meta, l'unica via è aiutare Zola a stringere un patto con Holland, la mercante di gemme più potente del Mare Innominato. Al centro di una rete di tradimenti e inganni, Fable scoprirà che i segreti portati da sua madre nella tomba stanno mettendo in pericolo le persone a cui tiene di più.

Cancel culture addresses real harm...and sometimes causes more. It’s time to think this through. In We Will Not Cancel Us, movement mediator adrienne maree brown reframes the discussion for us, in a way that points to possible paths beyond this impasse. Most critiques of cancel culture come from outside the milieus that produce it, sometimes even from from its targets. However, brown explores the question from a Black, queer, and feminist viewpoint that gently asks, how well does this practice serve us?

In the tradition of Octavia Butler, here is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help to shape the futures we want. Change is constant. The world, our bodies, and our minds are in a constant state of flux. They are a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, Emergent Strategy teaches us to map and assess the swirling structures and to read them as they happen, all the better to shape that which ultimately shapes us, personally and politically.

Welcome Everyone. This is my 4th, maybe 5th podcast but I am back by popular demand. I chose A/S/L as the title because back when I was growing up, my cousins and I stayed in the Yahoo Chat Room. People would ask A/S/L, which stood for age, sex, location. I feel like a lot of 80's and 90's babies can relate to that nostalgic acronym. I think I'm relateable as well. On this podcast, this is what we are going to be talking about, age: where we are in life with career, bad knees and kids. Sex: because why not. Location: different places with different people with different opinions. I really hope...
