    Check out this comic about the Model Minority Myth created by Stuy Junior Emily Tan!  ]]>     2021-01-26 16:37:33 UTC https://padlet.com/stuylib/bsbix8fr4n1ul2dp/wish/1127650530     Rootless by Chris Howard mmcgregor17 https://padlet.com/stuylib/bsbix8fr4n1ul2dp/wish/1128056497 This is kind of a weird dystopian-sci fi-western audiobook imagining the world after trees are extinct, if you need a screen break!]]> 2021-01-26 17:44:46 UTC https://padlet.com/stuylib/bsbix8fr4n1ul2dp/wish/1128056497 The Wonderful World of Dissocia by Anthony Neilson cbowlin21 https://padlet.com/stuylib/bsbix8fr4n1ul2dp/wish/1253512474 “You know what it is: it's like the Sirens. […] You know. They sit on the rocks and they sing to the sailors. And what they sing is so lovely it's like … they're hypnotised. They know if they sail to them their ship's going to get all smashed up. But they think it's worth it, you know – for the song.” -Lisa
    This unconventionally structured play begins with a woman, Lisa, visited about repair to her watch that runs an hour behind. She learns that she has lost an hour of time that exists elsewhere and can only be reclaimed in a fantasia world called Dissocia. We learn Lisa is suffering from a mental illness and--through two starkly contrasting acts--explore why she finds it difficult to take her medication. The play confronts qualitative human questions including the struggles between sensation and numbness, creativity and normalness, childhood and adulthood, and chaos and order.

Livewire is teletechnopathic: She can control hardware and software with her mind. She sees herself as a guardian of the psiots, but has she ultimately endangered them? This series spins off from the fallout of Harbinger Wars 2 (also available in Comics Plus). With a worldwide pursuit for her underway, will she be able to be the guardian she set out to be?]]> 2021-03-01 17:16:04 UTC https://padlet.com/stuylib/bsbix8fr4n1ul2dp/wish/1254337441
