Is it on Apple+?
Netflix?
HBOMax?
Amazon?
Disney+?
HULU?
Paramount?

There was a time when I pursued all new #scifi. Now I ignore new shows like the plague since there's a better chance than not that it isn't on a service I have.

Not too long ago we would all meet. It might have been Friends, Cheers, Muppets, any shows we'd all talk about for weeks.

Now I have to pay just for access to those services and who can afford them all anyways?

I'm tempted to cancel everything. What's the point...

#scavengersreign is about 60% "wow this is great #scifi" and 40% "OMG, that was totally idiotic" without much in between.

I ain't mad, but oof the whiplash.

"There are four kinds of people in this world", Umberto Eco says, "cretins, fools, morons, and lunatics.” But it could fewer than that. Or couldn't it be?. Some one like me is capable of being stupid, imprudent, half-witted, and mentally-ill. All in one day, all before noon. Four horseman of apocalyptic idiocy in one living being.

Ok #gaming #linux folks. If you were building a Linux gaming PC (mainly steam) what distro would you install?

ChimeraOS, Nobara, something else?

Wrong Place, Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister

My rating: 4.5 ⭐️

⚠️ This review contains spoilers. ⚠️

This book definitely had me gripping its pages and wanting to know what was going to happen next. I love a good #mystery #thriller novel, and I also love the concept of #timetravel, so combining the two was perfect. Did I know this book would be about time travel initially? No. I wanted to read it because it's a mystery/thriller. But as soon as Jen woke up on Day Minus One, then Day Minus Two, I knew. At first, I was confused by the frequent time skips and didn't understand why they were so random, but after learning that they may be happening so that Jen can pay more attention to the details of her surroundings and interactions, it made more sense. Like, if you had a chance to go back and do things differently, would you do it?

"What’s the role of nutrition for both preventing and beating COVID-19? Nutrition-related myths on protection and treatment have been widely prevalent in this pandemic, and while there is no diet that completely prevents infection, there are certainly dietary steps we can take to minimize risk."

A friend of mine has just gotten into reading, telling me that "This Neil Gaiman guy and that Stephen Graham Jones dude are really good." She's asked me for rec's. Ha! She has no idea what she's gotten herself into. I'm gonna have to rein myself in from overwhelming her! ❤📚❤
