also i just could not get through the IT crowd, even back when it was first on comedy central. i'm sure i'd hate it if i watched it today

this is absolutely right

if you really want to torture yourself, there's an american pilot with everyone recast except of moss and it's extra big bang theory style pauses and pacing

we did, too. we're doing a ds9 watch/rewatch, so the anomalies jokes landed extra well

also, boimler's third act scene led to a rewatch of s01e04 since ms. vector didn't watch the first few with me. s01 holds up better than i gave it credit for, at the time, and i think we;lol rewatch the whole first season to get in sync

adding to the reading list, thanks!

fe: the audiobook is narrated by him :stwoon:

for a second there i was wondering if they were going to let our bradward stay dead and have him replaced by his section 31 transporter duplicate, afaik they haven't done anything with that plotline from the previous season yet. but who knows, maybe they have and that's the point lol

regardless, i liked that bit a lot too. t'lyn seemed a little extraneous at first to me, but she actually served a purpose there. she's growing on me pretty quickly, like even if i weren't aware of people from the show taking notes from the forums it honestly is pretty good writing that imo elevates the show above its medium

and i've been meaning to get around to the stitch in time audiobook, maybe i'll start it this weekend. i'm sure it's good, andy robinson owns bones

oh yeah i would absolutely listen to the audiobook


its delightfully fun and is exactly the kind of fanfic i wanted to close out my favorite tailor



i also bung out the first six dragonriders of pern novels by anne mccaffrey. they are pretty fun 70s style scifi/fantasy from before those two concepts diverged and they were easy airplane reads. im actually surprised nobodys made a lovely amazon series of it because its a fun lil political romp and i could easily see it as a 10 ep per season for 4-6 seasons prestige drama.

There are a lot of decaffeinated brands on the market today that are just as tasty as the real thing.

been watching a bunch of the Hip Hop movies on Criterion channel, like Beat Street and Wild Style. funny part is I've had those soundtracks for years, just never seen the movies! and now I know that the very first track on the Beat Street soundtrack is the last track in the movie, and gives away a rather important plot point lol. gg whoever compiled the album

Originally, the backstory for Bobo included several much darker scenes, including one where the bear was involved in the assassination of John F. Kennedy. The scenes were cut because the writers felt it was in bad taste.[3]

TOR have a freebie compilation ebook of the short fiction they have put out over the last few months:

https://www.tor.com/2023/09/15/download-the-tor-com-summer-2023-short-fiction-bundle

edit: ps. epub is a couple megs too big to use the 'email to device' function for Amazon / Kindle, if you want to do that please download the proper copy from TOR for their metrics, and then you can use:
