The 'kin' of ‘napkin’ means "little."

‘Nap’ comes from ‘nape,' which means “tablecloth.”

So a napkin is a little tablecloth.

Not sure if it counts, but I’ve always liked the story that (supposedly) there is no known word for “bear“ in English. The word we use now is a euphemism so people wouldn’t actually say the real word for bear, out of fear or summoning one.

So much of the comics advice I've found most useful is not big-picture meaning-of-life storytelling stuff, but "every page should end on a mini-cliffhanger" and "make sure each issue includes at least one splash page the artist can sell at a convention"

I have committed all manner of faux pas in my life. I have been socially awkward, socially inept, accidentally rude, verbally clumsy, and obviously clueless far, far too often.

I am haunted by most of them.

One, though, I'm proud of.

My first couple of months in Washington, DC. I am at the DoJ
