April Foolery, Part 3
Even more monthly randomness.
Sunday, 6 July 2025
Life, the universe, pies, hot-pink bunnies, world domination, and everything
And welcome to the blog! If you’ll tell us your favorite color, we’ll wear it in your honor (an ancient MuseBlog tradition).
By popular request. This might be a good place to swap tips on printing stickers, too.
We really discourage this, but Brave Sir Robbin (Shana who…) feels so strongly about these that we’re making an exception.

Sorry, your GAPAs have no control over what goes into the magazine. You’ll have to submit them to the editors if you want them published.
It started on the Harry Potter thread, comment 325. Here, in installments, is the rest of the story.

Samantha Sordyl is the new assistant editor at Muse. She’s busy at work in the Chicago office most of the time, despite Kokopelli doing his very best to distract her every chance he gets. When she’s not working on Muse, she enjoys biking, reading and painting the rooms in her new place, and repainting them when the colors don’t turn out just right.
[That’s what Samantha says about herself. Other relevant information: she reads MuseBlog and is the magazine’s official Keeper of the Stickers (“Kokopelli for President” and HPB). –Admin.]
That’s Frodo the MuseBlogger, not Frodo Baggins. (His birthday is in September and will appear on the calendar in due time.)
Nobody else may post here first. And once she’s posted, nobody else may post EVER.
Righto, Y4HPB, it’s all yours.
Words you ♥, words you made up, names you’re curious about–step right up and verbalize. Just don’t reveal too much about your own names.
Got a bright idea for the blog, the Fan Page, or (though we aren’t in charge of it) the magazine? Unveil it here.
Earlier blindingly brilliant inspirations are recorded at Suggestion Box, v. 2006.1 and Requests/Ideas.
The ever-popular place to try out tricks with type, new bunny designs, etc.
Annoy Amaze your friends!
A friend of a friend points out:
At two minutes and three seconds after one o’clock Wednesday morning it will be 01:02:03 04/05/06. That will never happen again. [So much for info you get by e-mail. As MuseBloggers have correctly pointed out, it will happen once a century.]
(All good Musers will be sound asleep, of course.)
MuseBlog has become so big and complicated that once-thriving threads are turning into ghost towns–especially the ones that have scrolled off the front page. Got a favorite that deserves more attention? Post its link here and talk it up a little. Maybe the best is yet to come.
Ebeth thinks it would be cathartic to hurl insults at an imaginary being named Mr. Joe, who appears to look like this: . Your ever-obliging Administrators aren’t sure how that’s supposed to work, but we’re willing to give it a try. Sorry about this, Joe..
He’s not one of the more Muselike denizens of Earth… but all right, let’s get this over with.
OK, nobody wants to talk about Chuck. Let’s try the rabbits.
We give up. It’s total cathassus in here.
Here’s the place to talk about it, to copy the links (they’re allowed if they’re in the magazine), and to post a Muse Mail boildown. (The Administrators don’t have time to boil it down themselves, but volunteers are more than welcome.) SPOILER WARNING.
This month’s random thread, continued, continued, continued, continued. Clearly, MuseBloggers have an unlimited appetite for randomness. Please read The Rules if you haven’t yet.
