DHS / ICE appears to have rolled out their new cell phone tracking platform in DC. I'm getting these every 5-10 minutes on my phone.

Wrapped up “Nothing but Blackened Teeth” by Cassandra Khaw. Fun book to read after watching “Blue Eye Samurai.”

As always, I learned some fun new words reading Khaw’s work.

On to “The Blacktongue Thief” by Christopher Buehlman. Very excited to start this author.
