Did not finish: The Way of Kings Book One of the Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson 📚
I checked it out from the library, but things got really busy at home and there’s a pretty long waitlist. So, I gave it up just when it really started to get good.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day, 2026 - ★★★★★
This is a very solid movie. I really enjoyed it the whole way through and would happily watch it again.
I was thinking about some of the podcasts that I’ve been listening to recently. Some of them, I’ve been listening to for years. Over time, I’ve heard them change. I’ve changed. It’s part of how time works and if you’re lucky you will see it happen to you.
One of the things that I’ve been pondering is whether or not I’m the target audience for some of these shows. I’m not expecting that every segment is made for me, but there was always something that kept me coming back for the most part. Sometimes an episode was that great but following that one, I’d come across one that would blow my mind and have me fall in love all over again.
Unfortunately, that hasn’t been happening as much.
I find myself disagreeing with some of these content.
That’s ok. We’re not supposed to always have the same opinion. That’s part of what makes us individuals.
But, now I’m finding myself skipping sections and whole episodes after reading the notes or title.
Things I used to put on out of habit, I’m becoming more and more selective with.
This is ok.
Some of this stuff is not for me.
It’s ok to just let it go.
Just taking a quick look, it seems that I sent about 16 personal emails this year. I have a feeling that probably much , much higher than average.
Finished reading: The Assassins of Thasalon: A Penric & Desdemona Novella in the World of the Five Gods by Lois McMaster Bujold 📚
I enjoyed this book in that it had various twists and turns and yet still felt cut and dry.
