My daughter had a friend over to visit. They decided to watch an Italian film. The friend said "I don't speak Italian", so my daughter reassured her that there would be subtitles. "I can't read Italian either!" The friend replied.

I loved the Expanse novels. Read them all this/last year. I'm 58. Such brilliant character development. Flawed humans.

If you find yourself looking for a new laptop, might I recommend a Framework 13. Designed so that every part is replaceable, and the ports are hot-swappable. Need HDMI? Plug it in. Want to swap for usb C? No problem. Need a new battery? You just need a screwdriver to replace it. I love mine!

You know they say "never meet your heros"? I did, once, back in the 80s. Backstage before the concert. I regretted it, because it burst my bubble about how awesome I thought he was. C'est la vie.

"The last wish" is a league above! Phenomenal graphics and deep, meaningful story. And the wolf?! Oh, my goodness! WHAT a character. He needs his own movie. Can't recommend it highly enough. 👍

I bought the ebook specifically because Meta tried to ban it. Read it in 24 hours. Un-put-down-able and utterly terrifying at the same time.
