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

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! 😂

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. 😀

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?

(SORRY, LOST IMAGE)

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.

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.

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

(SORRY, LOST IMAGE)

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

(SORRY, LOST IMAGE)

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.

Melissa Caruso's story of magic and politics in a world of medieval city-states - started in The Tethered Mage - continues in The Defiant Heir.

Interesting characters and the story goes in some non-standard directions, so that's kinda cool.

The conclusion to S. K. Dunstall's excellent Linesman series.

(SORRY, LOST IMAGE)

Your whole society is based on magic, your dad is the head of the family and a powerful magi, your sister is a magical prodigy, and your magic just sputtered and died on the day of your magical trials.

Yeah, sucks to be you.

You know what's manly and cool? Doing whatever it takes to protect your family, friends, neighbors, and community regardless of what others think. Oh you thought I meant a gun? No, WEAR A MASK #covid19

Love that trend line that says Arizona can start lifting pandemic activity restrictions #ohwait #covid19

Stupid old man went and made a #TikTok https://vm.tiktok.com/3Cp8Ef/

Wanting to pull together some thoughts on the novel coronavirus #COVID19, and where we are here in #Arizona. But there's so much to pull together I just get so tired. 🦠🗑🔥

Looking for LED lights like Adam Savage (@donttrythis) used on his work light build, but Amazon is out with no timeframe on re-stock. Anyone found a good alternative?
