@Weepy you seen Kanata no Astra?

Oh no is it good?

Yeah

I started watching it when I got home 2130 last Thursday

couldn't stop

realized it was 0342 on Friday morning and I had to go to work in two hours

But totally worth it

Really?? I’ll have to add it to my list then

yeah

And I'm not one for sci-fi

the science was relatively believable, but the character development was 👌

I wonder why I never heard of it when it was airing. I must have totally missed it

It finished recently I think

I normally just wait until a cour finishes, then marathon

W-what?

Seems like tags to me.. wanted to cover all the bases.. minecraft is gay

ok boomer

Seems like there's new people around. Did we actually gain members from Revenge of the Cunts?

There's pretty much a constant slow trickle of people in which increases to a steady flow during either of the shows so i think that stands to reason

Like bad poops.

Hey I have 5 Audible Credits.

Got a couple books lined up, but shoot me some good book ideas to get.

Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101

Gulag Archelelago.

The Rising Tide of Color (1920) by Lothrop Stoddard

War and Peace or another good Tolsky book if they are decent enough. If they are read decent.

I've been reading a confession. Pretty good if you want to really face your existential crisis head-on.

Reading Russian novelists to face existential crisis? Do you want to sudoku?

Tbh I find I'm more productive when I introduce a bit of existential dread into my daily life

Any other good audiobook suggestions?

Dresden read by Spike from Buffy was good.

I only bother with actual books if possible

Read the Mistborn trilogy.

It's fantastic.

As far as audiobooks go, I can definitely say that I wouldn't have made it through Moby Dick if I had actually been reading it, but I really liked it in the end.

And then skip the time jump books and read Stormlight Archive instead

The problem, if you want to call it that, with getting into any Sanderson book is that I feel like it comes with an unspoken understanding that you are now obligated to read the rest of them.

If I read Mistborne what else do I need to read?

The original story was written as a trilogy, so you should really read all three.

That is the Final Empire, The Well of Ascencion and The Hero of Ages.

It looks like he wrote a lot.
