Books
Apple in China • 2025 • Patrick McGee • Yes, another book I’m reading. Just started, very detailed, interesting, and informative. Though provoking, even. • Loved It!
Things Become Other Things • 2025 • Craig Mod Craig has been wandering Japan on foot for decades, photographing and talking and observing, and he does brings the experience to life in a very spiritual way. He brings to life the importance of caring about things in the way that modern techno-fascist ideologies do exactly the opposite of. I’m hooked and trying to keep from racing through this. • Loved It!
TV Shows
Your Friends & Neighbors • 2025 • What a season! What a show! This ranks way up there on the all time favorites list. Very curious about where it goes next. • Loved It!
Murderbot • 2025 • I haven’t decided how I feel about this one enough to stop watching it or to know if I’ll KEEP watching it very much longer. Could go either way. • Decent
Government Cheese • 2025 • Quirky and funny and I haven’t really figured it out yet, but I’m along for the ride! • Loved It!
Long Way Home • 2025 • The Long Way series are always very entertaining, and two episodes in, this is no exception. I really love the European focus of this one. Will keep watching. • Loved It!
