Rest in peace, Terence Stamp.

After I heard of the passing of actor Richard Chamberlain, I decided to read 'King Solomon's Mines' (1885) by H. Rider Haggard. It is a well-written adventure, but very much written in the Victorian mindset of the era it was published in. Read with an open mind and from a historical perspective.

I finally finished reading Terry Pratchett's two early sci-fi novels that heavily influenced what would become the Discworld series: 'The Dark Side of the Sun' & 'Strata'. It was fun seeing where some of the more familiar elements of the Discworld series originated. Highly recommend.

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

I wish a Canadian would do this to Trump, like what happens to the rude American soldier in this clip from 'The Devils Brigade' (1968).

Finished reading another interesting book. 'Mortal Monarchs: 1,000 Years of Royal Deaths' by Dr. Suzie Edge. The author is a celebrated physician, biologist, and medical historian. She goes through the lives of each British Monarch since 1066 and discusses their medical history in detail.

Happy New Year.

Merry Christmas!

Here's another book I really enjoyed. 'The United States of Cryptids: A Tour of American Myths and Monsters' by J. W. Ocker. It talks about the origins of all the creatures and monsters in local American folklore and pop culture like the Jersey Devil, Mothman, and aliens.

UPS is such a useless courier company.

Hell yeah

Re-reading this bad boy because I haven’t really read it in depth post Elden Ring brain rot. The ancient tome of lore…in it hides the answers…eldinf rinj

I'm going to start posting recommendations for books that I have read that are great to have on any bookshelf. Let's start with one of my favorites that I turn to whenever I want a good chuckle.
'The Perry Bible Fellowship Almanack' by Nicholas Gurewitch

LEST WE FORGET

First post on this new platform. Here's hoping for a more enjoyable experience than I got on other social media platforms. Fresh start.
