God money's not looking for the cure God money's not concerned about the sick among the pure

-- Head like a Hole

#covid19


Good morning sports fans ☀️


Knight Rider theme for 8 Cellos

I never know how much I needed this in my life until Kottke linked it https://kottke.org/20/05/knight-rider-for-8-cellos


Are there #VR headsets with builtin forward facing cameras for immersive AR? Seems like a market.


Pivoting from #alternative1989 to The Crow soundtrack (1994)


Oh my Fascination Street #bass #thecure #alternative1989


this monkey's gone to heaven #pixies #alternative1989 hi mom - i know you have no idea what i'm talking about sorry - love you 😛


Wait... Head like a Hole was technically part of the 80s#mindblown #alternative1989


I may be the mayor of simpleton #alternative1989


Starting to worry that 25 years of programming and a lifetime knuckle-cracking are finally coming for the cartilage in the fingers or my left hand. The pain is kicking in right after I finish cracking those knuckles by habit. 😭


damn you Apple and your Alternative Hits of 1989 playlist #oldpeoplemusic

Another week, another 157107 #covid19 cases #uspol ... I've started hearing the "we don't believe the numbers" responses first-hand #SMH


Read: Knight's Shadow by Sebastien de Castell

Grandpa: Are you kidding? Fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles...

The Grandson: Doesn't sound too bad. I'll try to stay awake.

(from The Princess Bride of course, but applicable)

I stayed awake! 😂

Read: Traitor's Blade by Sebastian de Castell

Sebastian de Castell starts off another tale of magic and swordplay with The Traitor's Blade. Falcio, Kest, and Brasti make a nice addition to the tradition started by Dumas' Athos, Aramis, and Porthos. 😀

Read: Queenslayer by Sebastien de Castell

She's 13, a brand new queen, and everyone is telling Kellen to kill her. But Kellen likes to make up his own mind, yeah?

Read: Soulbinder by Sebastien de Castell

Yeah, so that horrible curse Kellen lives with, that got him kicked out of his own family and society, and made the constant target of bounty-hunting magi? It's even more complicated than he thought.

Read: Charmcaster by Sebastien de Castell

Sebastian de Castell keeps the interesting stories going of Kellen, the Jan'tep outcast and trickster, and the bizarre family that's been forming around him.

Read: The Unbound Empire by Melissa Caruso

Book #3 of the Swords and Fire series is typically fun and satisfying.

Read: Protect The Prince by Jennifer Estep

Jennifer Estep's swords and magic Crown of Shards series is awfully fun.

Read: Shadowblack by Sebastien de Castell

I really enjoyed this whole series. Book 2 finds Kellen - magical outcast from his Jan'tep family - beginning to accept his new status as outlaw and trickster, while learning that there is a whole world outside the insular society he grew up in.
