I’m on vacation starting Thursday through next week, but fear not: my colleagues at TIME Entertainment will continue plugging away in my absence, and I’ve armed your friendly android overlord Robo-James with a few posts to put up in my absence. (You can also find me blathering away, as usual, on Twitter, though a higher proportion of my tweets may be about the fine rest stops of the ohio Turnpike.) Please don’t set off any Fourth of July fireworks in his vicinity—you don’t want to set off his automatic perimeter defenses—and I’ll see you back here July 9.
