The logic is sound, because I (and assumingly others) found it interesting, but please try to read an article before sharing it.

Touché

These guys absolutely ruined the movie Red One for me.

It’s literally the first sentence in the article.

You posted the article but didn’t read it?

I know some folks swear that Rithamist is Sanderson’s best work and I am hesitant to try it.

I’ve tried Yumi a couple times, but haven’t been able to get into. I am excited to read Tress, however.

I think that the telltale signs of phishing are also decreasing.

Bad actors have consistently had better grammar and less spelling mistakes in 2024 thanks to AI tools.

I’ve seen so many people falling for the docusign phishing emails.

Reading a couple things at the moment.

Wrapped up Wind and Truth by Brandon Sanderson a few weeks back. Before that I had been rereading Stormlight in it’s entirety now that I have nearly caught up with the Cosmere (outside of White Sand and the secret projects besides Sunlit).

I didn’t finish that reread and am smack in the middle of Oathbringer, which might be my favorite of the Stormlight novels.

Additionally just 10 minutes ago I finished Demon Copperhead, which was really quite fantastic in my eyes. I have family from Appalachia - my parents left the area in the late 90’s after moving to a city in the late 80’s. So it brought back a lot of memories of grandparent visits and trailer parks and gorgeous nature. And also all the burned out wrecked homes you can see if you ever drive around.

HoYoLAB notification said “I will never let you go”

Damn.

Accurate but I want bees.

I’m trying to convince my wife to start this tradition! Maybe one day.

We usually stick to the millennial classics + new Gen Alpha solid movies though.

Elf, Santa Clause | Arthur Christmas, This Christmas etc.

I think that was 2023 as well

Edit: Oh you’re talking about the Zelda Zelda game. Whoops. I was thinking of Tears of the Kingdom.

Nintendo also hasn’t released a new console and the only notable first party game I recall is Super Mario Wonder, but I think that was released in 2023.

I love Only Murders in the Building.

I went to my dad’s office a few times as a kid. Never as a take your kid to work day, but he was a network admin.

I basically just played on my Gameboy trying to beat the latest Pokémon or he let me play Brick Breaker on his phone.

He showed me the server room and I thought it was noisy and cold, but cool.

Harder to hide a compound bow on a subway though.

Try Iron Widow.

Pretty much any light novel will fit your bill

Good timing. I just finally got his c6 from the free standard wishes.

Way of Kings is honestly a more like a prequel for the series. It’s pretty much ONLY setting up the characters and world building. So if you don’t get into that you might not finish.

Axehounds, Parshendi, chulls, chasmfiends, songlings, rockbuds, etc.

Oh and the generic “cremling”
