I am heartbroken that Google is killing another tool. I have been using Google Podcasts for years. I'm honestly probably not the most adroit podcast listener. I listen to my podcasts that I like and that's about it. I have enough in my feed these days I rarely hit the end of the queue (thank you Lawfare and Myths… Continue reading Review: Google Podcasts

Streaming vs Analog
My husband and I regularly buy dvds and blue-rays. Still. For a simple reason: ownership. An Ubisoft executive recently said gamers need to get "comfortable not owning games."https://www.cbr.com/ubisoft-gamers-comfortable-not-owning-games/. I haven't heard anyone defending this stance. Specifically, Ubisoft is saying that everyone will/should need subscriptions to play games. I am firmly against this idea. I watched Linus (Linus Tech… Continue reading Streaming vs Analog

Review: Wild Wild West
This isn't a new topic, but I am going to say something that is apparently controversial - I enjoyed this 1999 movie. Honestly, I still enjoy it once in awhile. Every once in a blue moon I see someone poo-pooing this movie. I'm sitting here going, "What did you want it to be" - and I… Continue reading Review: Wild Wild West
I judge you on your car – but not how you think I do.
I have been thinking about this post for years and largely avoided it. For several reasons, but I think 2024 is the right time to put my thoughts out there. Trigger warning - there will be strong language inappropriate for everyone used in this piece. I can't avoid it. When I am driving in Atlanta, I… Continue reading I judge you on your car – but not how you think I do.
Review: Chairs (Pt 2)
Click here to read Part 1. There was not a plan to have a part 2, but Wednesday morning my sister and I had a really great conversation and I ended it going "I'm going to have a whole 'nother blog post out of this." We mostly talked about money. Something I barely touched on… Continue reading Review: Chairs (Pt 2)
Life: Chair Woes
I have been working from home pretty regularly since 2018. During the pandemic, like many other white-collar professionals, I became 100% work-from-home (WFH). I have since moved to "only required one day a week, but I usually go into the office 2 days." I've found it's actually good for my mental health to get out… Continue reading Life: Chair Woes
Review: The Perfect Run
I found this on the front page of Royal Road and enjoyed it so much I went and bought it on Amazon - I'm a big fan of supporting authors. It has flaws, and I would definitely not recommend this for everyone, but I found it like book-candy. Not award winning, but yummy and bad… Continue reading Review: The Perfect Run
Review: Animist
I like Eve Forward. This is actually the first of her work I'd ever read. I recently re-read it. It might not hold up as well as something like Villains by Necessity, but I enjoyed it. Again. I think I read this when I was about 13 the first time and it was one of… Continue reading Review: Animist
Review: An Enchantment of Ravens
One of the hardest things about reading a lot of books is you begin to see patterns. Romance novels and fantasy both have some pretty standard beats, and this book is a little of both. It follows the patterns. That doesn't mean it's a bad thing! Authors like to use these pieces because it works.… Continue reading Review: An Enchantment of Ravens
