“ATTEMPT RECOVERY 3 MINERS' BODIES,” Montreal Gazette. August 7, 1942. Page 13.  ---- Two of Five Bodies Located at Cadomin Mine After Worst Disaster in District --- Cadomin, Alberta, August 6. CP -  A double shift of miners, working their way through huge masses of coal and debris, late today sought to recover the bodies of three of five Cadomin miners killed last night in the worst disaster in the mining history of the district. 
The accident occurred when water which had accumulated from old workings, swelled by recent rainfalls, burst into No. 9 level in the Cadomin mine shaft, about 150 miles southwest of Edmonton. 
Two bodies have been recovered from the wreckage. They were identified as those of John Wallace and Victor Alleggretto. Bodies of the three other men have been located, but have not been reached because of the difficulty of removing debris. They are fireboss John Logan and miners Joseph Dorobrowski and Carl Stocks. 
Several miners working in the shaft escaped into another crosscut of the mine by running ahead of the flowing mass of debris. These included Pete Laghi, Michael Kapusinski and Harry Pyson, all Cadomin residents. 
A. A, Millar of Edmonton, Chief Mines Inspector for Alberta, said today he planned to leave at once for Cadomin to investigate circumstances surrounding the accident, and that he will report his findings to the provincial department after the investigation. 
(William Goodwin, Mines Inspector for the Cadomin District, was at Cadomin in the course of his regular inspection work when the accident occurred, Millar said.)

Do you think cremation places bother to clean the giant blender between "customers"? When they grind up your desiccated bones to produce fake ashes for your loved ones to scatter, are said loved ones also getting little bits of everyone who's come before you?

The Big Afraid
The Big Afraid by apockalypsis Rating: Mature Word Count: 38k
Dean likes to mind his own business. Between juggling a daytime job as a mechanic, his secret identity as one of the City's masked vigilantes, and trying to repair the relationship with his brother, Dean doesn't have time for much else - let alone relationships, romantic or otherwise. Castiel is the superhero Dean keeps running into and whose mind seems to be set on befriending Dean, whatever it takes.
Who doesn't love a superhero fic? The hidden identities, the twists, the peril... The bonding over a shared goal? Everything that I love in a superhero fic, this fic has.
Dean is a down-on-his-luck mechanic who moonlights as a vigilante superhero whose power is in healing people. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of money in the gig, so most of his family and friends, including potential girlfriends and Sam, think that he's just a deadbeat who likes to get into a lot of fights. The only person who seems intent on forming a relationship with him is his rival superhero, Angel -- who seems to have a particular fondness for dropping in and pulling Dean out of difficult situations.
When circumstances shove Dean and Angel together, their identities are revealed, and they both begin trying to unravel a tangle of mysterious fires springing up all over the city. Meanwhile, Dean tries to rebuild his relationship with Sam--especially since Sam is getting married soon.
I always love fics where Cas can see Dean's worth, even when Dean refuses to, and this fic delivers that in droves. Dean and Cas learn to appreciate each other's strengths and form a partnership--maybe even a profound bond. This fic is action-packed and has a twist almost every chapter, so strap in and start reading!

one thing about the tma & tmp writers is I know they understand having a job where the social vibes are incredibly strange. I appreciate their commitment to depicting work environments that are so unnecessarily stressful where everyone is trying to backstab everyone and form alliances but meanwhile it's just filing items on a computer. The petty drama feels very true to life

Okay, so I had this idea based on the eccc ofmd panel from yesterday. Since they describe the show as a workplace comedy (or a sitcom, don't quite remember). And like other workplace comedies like the office, parks and rec and abbott elementary have these cuts to where a character is talking directly to the camera after or during a scene. Talking about/explaining their side of things. So what if they also did that on ofmd?
Which lead me to the next point. What if there was a scene like that after the moonlight scene in e5 and it cuts first to Stede and he starts talking to the camera, saying things like:
"oh, yeah. Hate the party turned out to not be so fun for Ed, after all. He was just so really excited before it and I wanted him to have a good time, but alas I guess. Although I will say, he did look quite good in his outfit. I especially liked the bows in the beard, yeah. Purple really suits him, I think."
and he's just nodding, looking all nonchalant and then it cuts to Ed who's just standing there and he goes:
"I, uhm. I- it's uhm." and his eyes starts roaming, his brain not fully having caught up with what just happened and his hand goes to the silk turned pocket square, before he looks back to the camera and asks "Wait, sorry, what was the question, again?"
