Mister’s new paper, “Boundary terms unbound! Holographic renormalization of asymptotically linear dilation gravity” available here through Classical and Quantum Gravity.
(It’s not about Jem and the Holograms. I checked.)

It’s not *obviously* about Jem and the Holograms. But if you read between the lines — decode the hologram, so to speak — it’s all right there in the subtext.
I would click on the link and read it, but I am boycotting Classical and Quantum gravity. I only read New and Quantum gravity!
Way to go Mister!
As for Jem, I honestly was singing her theme song the other day (insert long story about me using a Walkman to have one final listen before I throw out some middle school mix tapes).
Anyway glamour, glitter, fashion and fame to the both of you!
He just took one of my Green Acres fanfics and gave it a fancy title again. How many times is this going to happen?
I approve of all scientific papers with exclamation points in the title. Also of all blog posts with pictures of Jem.
I also approve this comment.
Finally, a renormalization of things that have too long been not normal. Like Boy George. And gravity. Three cheers for Mister!
And you know I’m a Facebook Fan of the Gem and the Holograms…rather, I’m a member of a fan Group.
I totally have season 1 of Jem & the Holograms on DVD. It makes me happy. Favorite part about the Jem dolls? Definitely the flexible wrists.
