I finished reading "The Devils" today. A very fun way to start the year. Last night I was laughing so hard that I couldn't keep my eyes on the page. I'd get it under control and then the next line had me laughing again.

Started my 2026 (on the 1st!) reading with "The Devils" by Joe Abercrombie. I'm only halfway through the book but I'm having a blast. My favorite parts of the book so far is the character dialogue -- I've genuinely been laughing out loud at the interplay between the characters. :)

So then Elon goes "Kill the Bill!" and Trump goes "Elon has TDS!" so Elon goes "I'm the reason Trump won!" so Trump goes "we waste billions on Elon!" so Elon goes "Epstein!" and a corpulent flunkie goes "Deport Elon!" and Elon goes "Impeach!"
And THAT'S why women are too emotional to be President.

Finished my read of @tananarivedue.bsky.social's "The Reformatory".
I'm sitting here at my desk, trying to compose what I want to say and instead I'm crying. What Robert goes through is heart-breaking, often infuriating.
